As a regular feature on Over the Edge, Crosley Bendix (dubbed the "Director of Stylistic Premonitions for The Universal Media Netweb") presents Monologues on cultural phenomena, with a typically "Negativland" sense of humor throughout. The selections here are fairly broad examples of Crosley's critical style. Probably his most famous monologue regards the discovery of a new primary color, called "Squant."

This album was released in 1993 by Negativland's own label, Seeland Records, as a CD.
