Boing Boing reports: “Monochrom: 20 years’ worth of Viennese art-weirdness”

Johannes from the Austrian art weirdos Monochrom sez, “As we are
currently celebrating 20 years of monochrom, we were confronted with the
problem of how to (re)present our history. We didn’t simply want to
show archive material — so we decided to pick 23 projects, anecdotes
and stories out our endless bulk of material and recreated them as
dioramas and machines.
“23 WORKS” is video series presenting and explaining these
installations.
I (personally) really like:”
