Nice Day for An Earthquake

From the Album Subsets of Sets (2001)
Shot at the top of the magnificent Te Mata Peak, Ed Davis' spectacular one shot video appears devilishly loaded. Opening on a transmitter tower, Davis pans to discover our brooding hero slouched in front of a television. Cropping the image to widescreen allows Davis to cleverly frame the action, and draw attention between scenery and action, as our axe wielding hero busts a valve, unleashing a world of hurt upon the offending appliance. Backing away from the dispute, amidst breathtaking scenery, the camera closes in on the root of evil — the loathsome tower.
