ROSE FINN-KELCEY

House Rules

By using LED technology an endless stream of words appear from nowhere and go nowhere. The effect is hypnotic, intense, provocative and humorous. As the stream of prohibition scrolls past, the voice without sound shows apparent intonation, inflection, volume and pitch. The voice of dissent occasionally interjects. "The world of 'no' is contested, but unstoppable".

This piece works perfectly in the enviroment of the cab, where the passengers are reminded to 'Buckle up for safety, don't smoke, don't drink, don't put your feet on the seats, etc' ; whilst at the same time the driver cannot advertise certain products, advertise in certain areas of the cab etc.

Rules, rules, rules.
