zapping |

This small work reflects about one of the most trivial gestures of present time (inexistent until few years ago) called 'zapping'. The act of changing a channel on TV with the simple press of a button, uncovers the interesting promiscuity of a countless number of emissions that have nothing in common.

In addition to this one, there were others like "White... white..." or "Sweet...sweet...give me sweet friend".
