I wasn't able to find any information about this online now so I'm going by memory, but my recollection is that this artist had read about the difference between gargalesis and knismesis (hard tickling and light feather tickles) and that triggered her to create this exhibit where she has recorded herself being tickled and shows different parts of her body on multiple connected monitors.
I don't know what her intention here was, but to me it's sort of fascinating, as if she's trapped in this digital environment and the central unit is sending tickle-sensations directly through her body.
