Used radiators have been crushed, their volume deformed and compressed. An upper radiator is connected by a piping system commonly used for heating systems to a lower one. Heating pipes lead generally to an energy source which is responsible for supply of warmth. Here the system constitutes a holding structure for single radiators which are bypassed or dead ended. Hardly thinkable that there is a flow of warmth. But the radiators seem to build a dense volume of bodies at once similar and different, developed from distortion.
