𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐲 is an answering service that takes over an art institution’s phone number. Callers can choose among a variable amount of words. The conversations can be short or long, they can be pleasant, abrupt or interrupted. You can call at any time, participants may be available or not available. None of the conversations are recorded, but the project participants are taking notes in a dedicated notebook, which becomes the only documentation of the piece.
