BLUE CLOUD was a performance as live broadcast of sky / clouds onto a TV network with a BBS (bulletin board system) by Dirk Paesmans in 1991.

Phone calls to random numbers in the phone book were made during the airing by an "IBN" representative who was able to affirm their audience by asking viewers to tune in and see the "BLUE CLOUD"?
