Apparently the de-manufacturing machine is a big draw for celebrities. Back in it’s debut run in 1979 at the Chevron gas station in San Francisco, Karen Finley, RE/Search’s V. Vale, and members of Throbbing Gristle were in the audience!

Survival Research Laboratories was conceived of and founded by Mark Pauline in November 1978. Since its inception SRL has operated as an organization of creative technicians dedicated to re-directing the techniques, tools, and tenets of industry, science, and the military away from their typical manifestations in practicality, product or warfare. Since 1979, SRL has staged over 45 mechanized presentations in the United States and Europe. Each performance consists of a unique set of ritualized interactions between machines, robots, and special effects devices, employed in developing themes of socio-political satire. Humans are present only as audience or operators.
