簡介/Synopsis

1978年HA‧舒特在為期14天的「魯爾區之旅」，幾乎每天都用一輛巴士載著他的觀眾們，駛向不同的目的地。其中一個地點「媒體屋」，是在杜伊斯堡的一座五口之家的住宅，到處扯滿了電線。HA‧舒特在屋前的小花園裡設置了9台電視，分別與屋內的攝像機相連。每個房間都安裝了攝像機，同步將屋內全家人的所有日常生活轉播到花園中，每個在花園中的人都可以看到這些影片。
舒特當時評論道：「這是一座把內部往外翻的房子」。但他肯定沒有預料到，他的想法在20年之後會衍生出「Big Brother」這類電視真人秀節目。

Almost every day for a fortnight in 1978, HA Schult drove his audience in a bus round his “Ruhrtour” to various destinations. One of them was the “Medienhaus” (Media House), a small wired-up workers’ home with a family of five in Duisburg Hamborn. HA Schult placed nine TV sets in the front garden, which were connected to cameras inside the house. They were installed in each room and transmitted the family’s everyday life simultaneously into the garden outside so that everyone could see it.
“A house turns itself inside-out” (own translation), as Schult commented at the time, without suspecting that 20 years later this concept would lead to the TV programme, “Big Brother”.
