At Glasgow Hunterian Museum (part of University of Glasgow, the 19th century principal building a tall Gothic ecclesiastical looking construction).

This performance

X MARKS THE SPOT (1995)

was created specifically for a remote controlled security camera mounted on the main spire of the University and watched in the Museum on a large screen with a number of performances "Choreographed" within the field of the camera's scope // remote controlled cctv // the camera
could rotate and tilt controlled from the Museum and lasting about twenty minutes.
- I was up on the spire 200 feet above the ground, naked and recumbent
- a sleeping "Adam" figure (viz. Michelangelo the Creation of Adam from
the Sistine Chapel).

In the grounds, a dancer, Vanessa Smith danced with her group marking out an X movement on the ground, an Irish performance artist (can't remember the name) worked with flour (probably also an X), a buto dancer (Alex Rigg) danced in the river, and Bill Drummond, Jimmy Cauty (KLF) and Marc J Hawker (who later changed his name to "Nation") pissed in the wind. There may have been others performing also. I haven't seen the tape. The performance was 'experienced' by the Audience through the screen.
