The London and Glasgow editions of the series ‘A Little Guide to Guards’ were produced as part of the Beck’s Futures 2004 competition.

In London, real-life guards were invited to monitor the spaces of the Institute of Contemporary Arts for a day, using techniques not typical for gallery invigilation.
Visitors ranged from a 19th century 'Beadle' enforcing rules against whistling and hurrying; to a night guard doing his hourly rounds; to a Tate Modern security guard counting visitors from his position by the door. A special 'Guide to London Guards' badge identified them as part of the exhibition.
