«Lip Sync»
With the camera held upside down and focused in a close-up of the artist's mouth, Nauman's lips and tongue articulate the words «lip sync» as the audio track shifts in and out of sync with the video. The disjunction created between what is seen and heard keeps the viewer on edge, struggling to attach the sound of the words with the out-of-kilter movements of Nauman's mouth.
