Hell

Computer graphics are applied to the concept of sin in modern society. The souls in hell are stored on disc and tortured with digital video effects. Inspired by Dante's Inferno, Lister's Hell updates its meta-phors and locations. Accompanied at times by Hell's wacky systems' designer, we see the spectacle of computerized graphics applied with intelligence and wit to the concept of sin in contemporary society.
