28-year-old performance artist Danny Devos aka DDV performs 'I Challenge You' with Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven aka AMVK in College of Advanced Education, Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia. I made a metal mask which was fixed to my head. While Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven read a text about willpower, I pulled myself forward with the mask by a rope. The sound of my breathing was electronically amplified through a throat-microphone.
