Signal

Questioning leadership. What have we done, what is our way forward? Read the signs – take heed.
The instruments in Signal - sextants, railway signals, and semaphore flags - are those used for choosing pathways, for alerting to peril, and for relaying information. These are tools understood by experts, but mere cyphers to the majority. Yet in order to work through our troubles, we need to interpret and take heed of the warnings.
