The UK filmmaker Daniel McKee is known for videos in which he arranges items from around the world into vibrant, flipbook-style animations. In his latest work, he draws from signs around the world to create an entertaining chronicle of alerts, instructions, bans and handy information. Pairing the work with a propulsive electronic score, McKee creates an entertaining semiotic study of the information societies try to communicate in a flash, and the language of imagery they’ve created to convey them.
