__________________________________________________________________________________
The combined speed of two Virgin West Coast Mainline Pendolino 125 trains passing ( circa Stoke-on-Trent ) and featuring the identical number in respect of the camera shutter speed being set at 1/250th sec.
First artwork we believe to be titled as a speed ( Video version tf )

A reflection on the rapid pace and increasing isolation in 2014 society, where fast-passing strangers have become reluctant daily companions – and for more than a few the sole means, such as it is, of social interaction.

The Propaganda Party
© Michael St.Mark (31st Dec 2013)

 

Context/purport
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Early New Years Eve street scene, Camden Town London NW1. In the first 3 years of the ConDem’s power-grab, official stats showed the number of rough sleepers UK-wide up by 20%.
Meanwhile the millionaire-to-a-man propaganda party likely as not whooping in the New Year in usual Bollinger-quaffing/sherbet-snorting Hooray Henry style from the uber comfort of their Chelsea town manses or ivy-dripping Rayburn-infested country cottage retreats in rural areas where their second ( or third) homes have jacked-up  house prices beyond the reach of young locals.
