Kaho Abe, as part of Eyebeam, a DIY art collective based in New York, has created a Rube Goldberg or Fischli and Weiss-like contraption called the Ticket Machine.
Insert a quarter, and follow the path of the deliberately overengineered gizmo as hacked and discarded electronics perform one step after another, leading to the printing of a ticket. My receipt read "Everything has the potential to become a pancake."
Today is the second-to-last day we are in the garage. We’re getting pretty tired with the late nights and full workdays, but everyone has responded enthusiastically to the Gift Horse.
Eyebeam Roadshow San Jose faculty Jon Cohrs, Jeff Crouse, and Taeyoon Choi will be participating in an artist talk as as part of the 01SJ Biennial program, Out of the Garage Into the World. Sharing the stage will be Ali Momeni & Minneapolis Art on Wheels (MAW).
