Here's my latest artwork, an artcade machine named "Insert 25 Cents to Feel Something." If you pay up, it shows you a cat picture on its bulbous, flickering screen, and plays you a silly song with meowing.

- A boxy blue vending machine with a coin slot and a bulbous screen, labelled "Insert 25 Cents to Feel Something. Tired? No pep? Feet hurt? 'Step Up' for a 'Pick Up'! A tonic - a real treat." All of this hand-painted lettering is a bit worn-looking, and the machine's paint job suggests it has been outside for a long time. In the video, a hand feeds it a quarter and a still photo of a mid-meow kitten appears, in flickering, projector-like fashion. A vintage song also plays, singing about kitties and making meowing sounds. (remote)
