Forget the joylessness of Carsten Höller's New Museum offering and step next door for the mad delights of Spartacus Chetwynd's current installation. With heroes like Jabba the Hut and a passion for the sublime, 'Home Made Tasers' is a hodgepodge of fun. Wheeled on an office chair between mini sets revealing the increasingly barmy tales of man's evolution - Creationists and Darwinists beware this is somewhere between Scientology and Planet of the Apes - our child was given the slightly less racy version of our lives to this point which ended with the wildly shocking PP3-powered tazer sparks and the charm of a french man dressed in a green-veined frock.

Forget the joylessness of Carsten Höller's New Museum offering and step next door for the mad delights of Spartacus Chetwynd's current installation. With heroes like Jabba the Hut and a passion for the sublime, 'Home Made Tasers' is a hodgepodge of fun. Wheeled on an office chair between mini sets revealing the increasingly barmy tales of man's evolution - Creationists and Darwinists beware this is somewhere between Scientology and Planet of the Apes - our child was given the slightly less racy version of our lives to this point which ended with the wildly shocking PP3-powered tazer sparks and the charm of a french man dressed in a green-veined frock.
