beetroot brains brexit
At the beginning of 2019 the UK was consumed an overwhelming surge of talk about a ‘hard brexit’, or ‘soft brexit’, or ‘no-deal brexit’. Unsure in any case what this alien word – ‘brexit’ – might signify, Huge Sillytoe began to wonder just how many types of brexit there were, what each one might mean, and what the people of Britain thought of each. In consultation with leading political scientists, Huge created a full Brexit Variety Forecasting System that could be worn around their neck and interacted with by people to generate their very own preferred type of brexit. From dusk til dawn, Huge deployed this technology on Westminster Bridge besides the Houses of Parliament in order to record the full diversity of brexits imagined by the British public. They presented their discoveries to the British government and that same night caught a bus to Brussels to deliver the urgent findings to the European Union. They still await the response of both authorities.
