Performance
A mundane tool inside a synthetic world.
John and James created a piece entitled "Looks Very Tidy." The work began in the 3D virtual engine of Second Life, where vacuum cleaners were created, performed with, and rendered into real space through 3D printing.
Vacuuming becomes a mundane performance inside a synthetic world. The vacuum cleaner is functionally useless there, so it turns into a fetish object, sculpture, and record of a performed task.
