I missed it by 10 minutes and could only see the last visitors leave before it closed. Argh! :) Another great installation by these two artists is <a href="http://www.kreativrauschen.com/blog/2007/10/15/opera-for-a-small-room-a-music-installation/" rel="nofollow">Opera for a Small Room</a>. It's one of the best I've ever seen. I'm not sure if it's included in this exhibition, though. Unfortunately, I have not seen Forty Part Motet.

Her surround sound installation <a href="http://www.tate.org.uk/liverpool/exhibitions/janetcardiff/" rel="nofollow">Fourty-Part Motet</a> is one of the most incredible pieces of art (and music) I have explored.
