Home Automation is a parody of the Homeland Security Department's color code threat alert system. A family of lifesize robotic crash test dummies, in a walk-in living room, musically self destruct as they watch color code threat alerts on their home TV.
The crash test dummy family "sees" via color sensing video recognition programming.
"While we understand that our leaders need a system of communication, we contest its experiment on the civilian population. We simply have no use for the color codes other than as an object of our fears." -David Karave
