This is absolutely brilliant.

That downbeat-electro-jazz really ties the show together. Some of the most confoundingly twisted mesmerising oddness I've had the delight of seeing in some time.

This is the best thing I've ever seen on the internet.

The show is some of the finest performance art I've ever seen (I don't usually have any patience for most performance art), the paintings are rubbish, and the callers are quite tragic.

I wonder if it would get a different quality of callers outside of the US, but I fear not, young people being what they are.
