...crafted "realities" of reality TV have prepared us all for The Telephone Call, a Cardiff video walk available at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. As you roam through galleries and into the museum's back stairwell, you watch prerecorded images of that route on the foldout screen of a small video camera.

Closer to home, reviews were slightly more favorable. A motley collection of curious students and adults, West Wing diehards and virgins alike, piled into the Institute of Politics forum to watch the special episode on the big screen. The fading of the final scene was met with scattered applause and excited debate.
