The surrogate reality of commercial TV is substituted with an alternative rendition, this, combining nuclear-age militaries projected in action (ground zero, where are you?), and television media psychology (as targets go, and with a general lack of comprehension of this medium, the passive viewer, the sitting duck), and video war games providing the middle-ground in a surreal context. This tape forms a chewy thematic lump out of a technology and war machine and art triad for the family pet, TV, to go and fetch. Here, SONY boy, stop chewing the psyche.
