| Unnar Örn Jónasson’s work employs
the factor of trust, a trust in people that they will respond in
some way to the situations he sets up. Jónasson accepts that
it is impossible to control all circumstances, so it is enough for
him to create the parametors and let things run. Jónasson
knows that the audience will do something and that he will try and
do the right thing or at least, the wrong thing the right way.
