OBJECTIVE: Create a montage relating the human body to some aspect of society. (vague assignment?...oh yes)

SUBJECT: The skeleton (the structural system of the human body) as compared to the government (the structural system of society).

EXPLANATION: In addition to the basic comparison of the skeleton to the government, this montage comments on the media's influence over the government. Government officials are constantly preoccupied with performing for the media. Along with representing structure, the skeleton symbolizes death. Death is the price the government will pay for its obsession with the media and public image.
