The Apparatus World - A World Unto Itself by Peter Weibel
The world of apparatus world continues what painting began, what it was forced to do by machines and what painting was unable to fullfill: the emancipation of all elements from art, giving rise to various worlds with intrinsic laws and qualities.

SYSTEM INTERFACE AND SYSTEM COUPLING: ANDY WARHOL AND ART MACHINE
Andy Warhol's baldly proclaimed and widely publicized embrace of the machine in the 1960s carried with it the danger of appearing to affirm post-war industrial society, and the new forms of labor, organization, mass culture and the commodity that characterized it. Everyday life, the argument would go, has already turned us into machines, as consumers of mass produced commodities and culture and as workers. Art, then, should help us reconnect with what is human and creative, not underscore our subjection to the machine.

Wayne Clements, A Pessimistic Mechanics?
Art machines have a condition – even a pathology, perhaps even a plight. It is to exist between two economies, two regimes. This status, like that of anything that does not fit in, is their predicament – and of course that which marks them out as unlike the common run of things.

SEX MACHINE ART: FROM MECHANICAL REPETITION INTO ELECTRONIC FLICKER, by Joseph Nechvatal.
Roussel developed the hypothesis for language machines which would produced text. Duchamp had seen Roussel’s play Impressions of Africa in 1912, inspired by Jules Verne Novels. Impressions of Africa describes and foresees the computer/digital/machine artr of today. Roussel’s work “creates one predominant overall effect; that of creating doubt through mechanical discourse." Duchamp credits roussel with the inspiration for Large Glass, Mechanics of Modesty, and The Passage From The Virgin To The Bride. Through roussel we can map the avante-garde through the last century passing through Duchamp, the Futurists and Productivits, through Jackson Pollock, Tony Smith, Ad Reinhardt, Andy Warhol, Donald Judd, Sol Le Witt, Yve Tanguey and Joseph Kosuth.

They are furthermore reminded that it is a Federal crime to deface US currency.

Machines are, in theory, designed to be efficient, convenient, non-intrusive. They blend into our environments seamlessly as non-threatening and often aesthetically pleasing tools. Machines are everywhere: a ubiquitous part of the enhanced environment. Some are autonomous, while others are tightly coupled with the human body: prosthetics, communication devices, even jewelry. This gentle encroachment, combined with ongoing research toward machine sentience, forces us to consider machines outside the context of mere tools. They are part of our social, emotional, artistic, and even spiritual context.

Dolan Geiman Art Machine
In detail, the Art Machine is a portable, booth-like structure with a carnival-esque facade. The four sides of the machine are constructed from wooden doors with collaged wooden and metal adornments. The canopy of the structure consists of a papier-mâché center piece, a wooden billboard-esque sign, and a dome-shaped malleable metal wire that is covered with fabric and cloth. Depending on the location, installation requires approximately 90 minutes; deinstallation approximately 60 minutes. The four sides of the booth each break down into two pieces to accommodate indoor installations and allow the Art Machine parts to fit through standard hallways, doorways, and elevators. After first installing it on the upper deck of a yacht, in the rain, with 45 minutes of installation time, the Art Machine has proven its adaptability and durability in most installation environments.
