Doug Aitken's exhibition Ultraworld was held at the Couvent des Cordeliers, part of ARC-Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris, from November 10 to December 31, 2005. The show engages a spectator-editor who polarizes space and creates personal images of time through their journey, movements, and varying speeds. Térésa Faucon and Damien Sausset interviewed the artist, who examines our experience of the world with a sense of nostalgia.
