Today Art: Objects of Desire, by Carlos Katastrofsky

Objectsofdesire

When I  saw this, I found it interesting, let me tell you why.  This is a machine, a computer redesigned by the artist Carlos Katastrofsky (Austria) with one purpose:  make you think about how technology and their new products, always make you desire it.  In other words, hi-tech bite your freedom until you buy that "object of desire" that owns your heart and mind.   The sad ending of this, is that desire will never be satisfied, because hi-tech product have a very short life.  In a few seconds, there will be another product that you will want, and the actual product that you already bought, will be forgotten in the dust.  Just think about all the music devices that you had before your last iPod, where are they?

Well, better read what this machine have to say:
