Media installation

NAKAJI Hiroaki[Japan]

Outline

An installation consisting of two different machines using ping-pong balls. For one machine, a ping-pong ball is rolled at regular intervals on a thin rail without a guiderail, while for the other machine, a ball bounces on top of pillars. Only the balls that successfully reach the end go into the cardboard box. The difference in the behavior of mass-produced balls promotes thoughts in the viewers.
