New video uploaded by KVUE interviewing Mark Pauline and a couple crew members from the 1997 show in Austin The Unexpected Destruction of Elaborately Engineered Artifacts. We broke a record there – it was the first time live video was broadcast wirelessly on the web!

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.
