| The
first Bubble Machine was produced in six weeks specifically
for the Brisbane Festival Street Parade. After the Bubble
Machine's initial and successful performance in the Brisbane
Festival, it was exhibited at Gallery 482, South Bank's
Festival of Lights Christmas Parade and LIVID. Built entirely
out of discarded electric wheelchair parts, the Bubble
Machine has been suprisingly reliable. The creation of
Bubble Machine II forced the early retirement of the orginal
Bubble Machine, which is now availble for purchase. |
