The unhappier you are, the more ice cream you get

Dr. Whippy, had people queue despite the wet wet weather in the streets of Linz during ars electronica. The machine proffers soft scoop ice cream according to the perceived unhappiness level of the customer.

“Employing voice stress analysis of the user’s answers to specific questions, varying degrees of unhappiness are measured and the counteractive quantity of ice cream is dispensed: The more unhappy you are, the more ice cream you need.”

Taco Art

I have always liked tacos. You have to respect the simplicity and ergonomics of the taco. It is what it is.

I’m sure many will believe this is a joke; that maybe I’m making the point that anything, when photographed in black and white, looks artistic and interesting. My only comment is that if this is a joke, I’d never confess to it. And I haven’t decided if I’m making any point. It is far more convenient to wait until later to decide what my motives were.

Please view the photographs and make up your own mind. I believe that they speak for themselves.
