TfL Video

What's this ear? It's the latest load of codswallop to be commissioned by Art on the Underground to bemuse passengers. It's a video by British artist Benedict Drew entitled de re touch (2015). The 8-second video will be displayed on digital screens on the London Underground network from 1 November until 28 February 2016 (CLICK). Why? Why compete with firms that pay to advertise on the Underground? And why waste money on vanity projects when there are so many improvements urgently needed on the Underground?
