I must say, Frank, that this time you did not do all to well.

You see, the corridor itself is full of standard geometric objects and 
figures. And whatever is shown on TV really blends well with these 
surroundings. Honestly, I had to specifically look for the TV in order 
to see what you were trying to tell.

Also half man on the left does not help here either.

Sorry, but I don't find any reason to like this shot.

You know, this picture almost looks like an optical illusion because
it's hard to find a vertical line in this picture - the columns change
width and the TV screen is tilted, so my eyes are left wandering for a
properly straight line, which is an interesting effect.  I think that
is a great shot - although I hate those darn TV's.  They have them at
my Walmart, and even if you can't see the screen you can hear it, and
it's always this woman with a horrible southern accent...arg...

It may be a "Big Brother" thing.(?)
The hall walkers demeanor could be seen as fearfully focused. or... the
first one to be noticed looking at the screen has to clean up the trash
being pointed out.
Fun to speculate about. I'd keep it, Frank.

I'm still not sure what I think of this one.  I haven't decided if I
like it or not.

I know I don't like all those video monitors showing advertisements as
I walk down the hallway.  I don't know why I find it more offensive
than, say, a bunch of billboards along a roadside, but I do.

Intrusive technology and all, I suppose...
