“In Unassembled Information (1977) the screen is dominated by the back of her head, past which can be glimpsed fragments of her face in the small mirror she is holding, while a radio is playing. Thus she negated the elaborately constructed image of the TV presenter; with the radio a reminder of importance of the spectator’s imagination, so rarley addressed by television.”
