Playa Projects
2008 — Krank-Boom-Clank featuring the Hennepin Crawler
The Crawler is capable of both street and limited railroad track cruising. It is comprised of approximately 90%+ recycled materials, including:
- Discarded lawn furniture
- VW Bug & antique Cadillac parts
- Old wooden furniture
- Industrial culvert pipe & aviation wire
- Plenty of old bike bits
- Other minor found parts
The Hennepin Crawler represents a melding of alternative transportation innovation, human-powered kinetic sculpture, recycling functional garbage, and a prankster’s notion of inflicting bewildering beauty upon an unsuspecting public.
2007 — The Ice-Flø
The Ice-Flø was a thirty-two foot long, two story tall faux iceberg to transport Playa denizens within a comfy pillowed lounge, DJ booth and mini dance floor that converts to a live music stage, and all lit in the soft marine hues of a hapless chunk of melting ice, adrift across the open desert floor.
