In the Bucket
An expansion of 24-7v2, "In the Bucket" consisted of a more poposterous mechinisim to spill ping-pong balls into the space after a random period of time. After the balls had spilled, the machine would notify it's "keeper" via sms message to come clean the mess, and reset the machine.

The machine starting to spill the balls
The balls spilling into the lower section of the machine. The balls roll into the hole in the membrane, hit a fan inside the lower section, hit the lower section wall and roll onto the floor.
After the balls have spilled. The balls were collected in orange buckets. The buckets were then carried through the gallery and up to the balcony.
