An interactive installation and workshop developed for Kiebre Festival in La Paz. Using a Microsoft Kinect and a 3D scan of the venue, an underground passage was turned into a responsive illusion of extended depth. When a visitor entered the sensor range, the scanned wall appeared to open into an elongated corridor whose perspective shifted with the observer's position. On the closing day the installation was opened to the public, and the workshop participants contributed alternate visual skins for the tunnel interior.

Invited by the festival and its director Bernardo Resnikowski, Alejandro Rodríguez took part as both VJ and workshop tutor. The piece was built in parallel with the workshop itself: the venue was measured, the tracking system tested, and the full production process shared with participants as assembly progressed. The scanned wall served as a precise digital double of the tunnel. The project formed part of a broader invitation to participate in Kiebre as educator and performer, linking installation practice, live image work, and hands-on technical experimentation within a single festival context.
