Poop
This is a machine that makes poop. They’re installing it now in Montreal and it will be on public display from Friday onwards. (You can go to https://cloaca.be to find out more). My friend Wim, another Wim than the artist that made this machine, is photographer and he’s here in Montréal (for the second time already) to document the setting up of the machine. There are also stereoscopic pictures on display that he made over the past few years.
The opening of the exhibition will be this Thursday 16 January and there will be plenty of food, for both human and mechanical lifeforms. Yes, this machine eats the same as we do, and it gets digested into the same excrements. You’re all invited.
Here is more info about the exhibition.

Just out of curiosity: does the end product smell just like human excrement too?

It looks like a poop, it smells like a poop and it tastes like a poop. I haven’t tried the latter but I’m more than willing to just believe that without actual testing.
