Milk Duds

Interactive Sound Object 2004

A prototype for ‘objects that talk back to you.’ This is an actual box of candy that, when picked up, speaks in a small voice that comments on the relationship of humans to the chocolate/cocoa commodity, both historically and today.

In a sense, this is a ‘Marxist’ piece in that it attempts to overcome the alienation that separates the creators of a product and its consumers.
