TEN FACTS ABOUT THE POSTERS AND THE PUBLIC
  1. The posters show a world of impossible beauty. Seeing it, The Public are moved to tears of sadness. How could we ever have mistrusted Art? they ask. But trust and closeness are now possible! Even the imaginary existence of the exquisite place depicted here gives us hope. Speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  2. The posters re-formulate the experience of change. Where once discontinuity and difference were seen as unsettling and filled with doubt and fear, The Public now eagerly seek continuous newness and innovation, casting off the rusty shackles of certainty as mere nostalgia, and climbing on the rubble of the abandoned present in eager anticipation of an improved future. Speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  3. The posters are grossly offensive, causing hurt and distress to minority groups, as well as to vulnerable people of different ages and backgrounds. Ancient principles and unalterable personal characteristics are mercilessly lampooned. Seeing the posters, The Public are united in their rage and opposition, joining forces to destroy them and their creators. Then, speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  4. The posters are filled with a charged sexual intensity. On seeing them, The Public are filled with an open and polyvalent desire. There is touching and the gentle tessellation of bodies without distinction. A writhing unity is born, in which the act of species procreation and the ego-less achievement of physical pleasure are harmoniously accomplished while miraculously retaining compliance with established morality. Then, speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  5. The posters are filled with a precious and densely communicated economic knowledge system, conceivable without condescension in many tongues. Seeing it, The Public are filled with an entrepreneurial zeal. Through trade, amid a perfect balance of competition and cooperation, vast wealth is created, and the experience of serene leisure enabled. Speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  6. The posters are a terrible void, filled with a barren emptiness that makes all aspiration meaningless, and all human relations seem base, futile, and compulsive. Their dense absence of matter and value draws all things toward it. Seeing their destructive potential, The Public unite in the hazardous task of neutralising their threat through a continuously maintained concealment whose  surface is decorated by artists to mitigate the horror beneath. There is widespread relief, and, speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  7. The posters become the source of an ancient runic power that gently draws adherents of previously divisive tribal codes into a respectful relationship with the cycles of the earth’s tides and meteorological patterns. The land yields unprecedented abundance, and The Public are now no longer hungry. Speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  8. The posters are places of trans-dimensional liminality, offering a dynamic portal across time and space, causing The Public to cheat death repeatedly, and to become wise through their disinterested witness of humanity’s past errors. Speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  9. The posters contain a complex visual code that stimulates the brain’s pleasure centres in a sustained and highly efficient way, without recourse to imagery or narrative description. Seeing them, The Public are transfixed in ecstasy, as joy-inducing and naturally-produced chemicals flood their nervous systems, causing an abandonment of all the visual structures of hierarchy and envy through which pleasure had previously been produced, inhibited, and controlled. Speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.


  10. Contained within them, the posters define a social group whose only characteristic is a coarse repulsive difference from the person of each viewer. Every aspect of their lives, from the food they consume to their sexual and familial practices and customs is vulgar, malodorous and offensive. The Public are united in their hatred of a universally detested community. Since their rage and hatred is fully absorbed by the poster’s power to replenish this despised virtual resource, no-one suffers. Then, speaking with one another, they resolve to live better, deeper and more meaningful lives.
