Synopsis
Mixer is a steel cement mixer transformed into a 21st century media cocoon that is fitted with advanced technological equipment. The book has been edited and designed to resemble an instruction manual. The text, written by Mark Robbins, Associate Professor, Knowlton School of Architecture at Ohio State University and current Director of Design at the National Endowment for the Arts, is part instruction, part narrative, part electronic dialogue, part screenplay. The text is multi-layered, combining found material with original work, much like the project it presents.
