In the spirit of the approaching , I decided to re-process an old bit of from, jeez 10 years ago. The fun you can have with your bike lights. The empty, refuse-dumped blocks on which this serendipitous arrangement of things was found has long since been redeveloped into awful style town houses (built on about 1m of raised earthen embankment - the developers sure believe in sea level rise).

An image of an unplugged CRT television, facing away from the viewer. Orange-red light is flooding out of it, as if from an open fire. Illuminated in that light, are two matching discarded office chairs, with the broken remains of a small wooden coffee table between them. The whole tableaux appears as a post-apocalyptic scene. The background is all darkness, apart from the silhouettes of trees and fencing of the boundaries of this empty residential lot.
