This site-specific work was developed at Hogarth's house from three Hogarth etchings. The live art actions were produced in three separate locations around the House: Great West Street - a three lane carriageway road just outside the house, the dinning room, and the garden of Hogarth's House.

The first two actions relate to the etching 'The Enraged Musician' in which a composer is unable to write due to the central London street noise of the 1740's.

The third action is based on the etching: 'Inhabitants of the moon, or Royalty, Episcopacy and law' in which Hogarth satirises institutions, office holders and the fashionable elite.
