The Metropolitan Police call him a 'domestic extremist'. The NHS described him as ‘highly disturbed’ and labelled him with Borderline Personality Disorder. ‘A real and present threat to our business’ is how E.ON described him in the court.

He prefers the term Mental.

Directed by Perrier Award Best Newcomer Kim Noble and staged in a secret venue, artist-activist, the vacuum cleaner, presents an autobiographical performance told through his psychiatric records, police intelligence files and injunctions collected through the Data Protection Act.
