In this episode, Rosie talks about how she looks for the absurdities of life and how her performances often deliberately misunderstand the way we communicate with each other. She explains why she sexualises everyday items, how she creates a mixture of the comic and the serious through performances such as The New Me, Soft Girls and Planned Obsolescence, and how she hopes her future projects will develop.
