    The Installation presents a new series of motion sensitive kinetic coffee cups. As part of my on going fascination with the fetishistic nature of the coffee cup, I have activated this banal object throughmotorization. The motor driving these cups is that of a personal massager, attempting to create a hybrid thingthat is the ultimate fetish object. To intensify the experience a series of homemade audio pickups will amplify the sound and vibrations of these portable consumer fetish objects.
