Broadcast live footage from prisons on a pay-per-view
                       basis. The footage could either be streamed from CCTV
                       cameras or web cameras via the Internet. Paying
                       viewers might range from the merely curious, to those
                       fascinated by serial killers. Revenues could be used to
                       lessen the dependence on taxpayers to pay for the

167prison service, while constant public monitoring might
                       help ensure standards are met.

                       Produce a collection of artworks based on well-known
                       paintings or sculptures under the title ‘Better Art’. Van
                       Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’ would be revisited, for example, and
                       the irregular shape of the vase corrected. While the
                       success of, or need for, such improvements would spark
                       some controversy, the poster series could offer kitsch

168appeal for the sophisticated art lover and welcome wall
                       hangings for those who simply prefer the new versions.
