In Paris, Francis Picabia and the composer Erik Satie collaborate on Relâche (No Performance, or Cancelled). Entr'acte, a short film by René Clair that features Satie, Picabia, Duchamp, Man Ray and other well-known artists as actors, is screened during intermission. A repeat performance is held on New Year's Eve, titled Cinésketch. Duchamp and Borgna Perlmutter appear briefly as Adam and Eve.
An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South?

A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
