This was an intriguing concept that I actually had an interest in prior to hearing this piece. While on a trip to Pittsburgh, I spotted one of these Art-o-mat machines in a coffeehouse on the southside. The idea of taking an old cigarette machine and making it into something more inspiring was fantastic. This piece gives you a bit more insight into the world of Art-o-mat and even speaks with one of the artists selling work through these machines. A great piece to use as an in between segments bit about life in America.
