In early 1976, in collaboration with the sculptor Ralph Hilton, he created Spaceman (The Kitchen, New York). The work is a structure in the form of a parallelepiped visible on all its surfaces, made of wood and translucent plastic, with people and objects inside, including a wall of video monitors. Spaceman was restaged in 1984 at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam as part of the exhibition The Luminous Image. Some of the elements in the work later found their way into Einstein on the Beach, produced with Philip Glass.
