Is it the floor or the walls that move in the Virtual Insanity video by Jamiroquai?

Many people must know the superb video for Virtual Insanity by Jamiroquai where JK is dancing in a pre-fab room with white walls. The floor slides smoothly around but he still manages to avoid falling over, hitting the walls or furniture. I expect this is obvious but I seem to recall seeing somewhere that the floor wasn't moving at all - it was the walls. Am I losing it or can anyone enlighten me?

the 'walls' were basically a upside down box with a few holes in. The furniture had handles that would stick through the holes, when lined up straight. People on each of the 3 open sides of the box pushed and pulled the box about over the smooth floor. When pushing the wall away the furniture stayed on the wall and when pulling the wall towards them, they hold the handles through the holes in the wall and the furniture doesn't get left behind.

Cool - how do you know this?

helped build the set! Never thought the info would come in useful though

Thanks for the answer. As you might expect, people thought I was mad. I'm sure the vid was in Pop Up Video which always makes me laugh and that's probably where the info was from. For a pop promo, I expect it was relatively inexpensive but the end result was amazing. Any other gossip?

no more gossip really - although by some twist of fate, my sister in law was in a remedial maths class with Jay Kay whilst at Oakham school!
