As part of this overall installation, which is configured to suggest a waiting room, a micro colour CCTV camera is hidden under the lampshade and focused on a range of contemporary art magazines stacked under the coffee table in the middle of the room. A small motor is attached to the ceiling that continually flicks the video cable. The shaky video image is then relayed to a television set facing the row of chairs.
