An interactive project, programmed in Javascript and HTML5.

You can click with the mouse on the button to play. The rotating wheels of this slot machine show fresh fruits alternated by packaging waste of sweets, snacks, lemonade, cigarettes etc.
If you have caught a fresh piece of fruit, you are invited to eat it: with every mouse click you take a bite. Thus, the fruit becomes smaller and smaller until only kernels remain. These cores are rotating again in the carousel of the machine, until they come to a halt in one of the next rounds of the game. Now the visitor has the chance to regenerate the fruit again. With every mouse click, the fruit grows larger until it is fully grown.
This is the on-line versione of the installation, which has been presented for the first time in Group Global 3000, Berlin, 19.05 – 30.06.2017, as part of the group exhibition "Can you buy pleasure?"
