In Death TV you meet a butterfly collector whose explorations into violent mayhem in television programming draws out our society s preoccupation with watching people die as a source of entertainment. A journalist with a nose for a good story takes us inside the world of thinking machines in the form of cybernetic horses, and tries to discover whether they conform to her dictum that living means being true to your identity.
