A form of art, similar to
Unmade Bed by Tracy
Emin. However, Tracy gets paid
shedloads for her shite, whereas mime artists are rightly shunned.
On the
Discworld, there is a city called Ankh-Morpork which is free from mime artists. They are
chained over
the scorpion pit, upside down, with the ever-helpful phrase "Learn Thee Words" emblazoned across the walls.
