Investigating through the Internet, applying concepts of electronic and mechanical engineering and using recycled materials, functional devices (vaporizers) are produced for the alternative consumption of marijuana, extracting its active component (THC). Each piece is accompanied by a video as an instruction manual, along with a free interpretation that represents the ""personality"" of each piece. The work is complemented by the web page, which seeks to disseminate the work around each of the pieces and present a point of view on the consumption of marijuana, the consumption of art, industrial production, the recycling of information and waste, and additionally, promote future projects. The work was presented in the ArteCámara pavilion at Artbo 2014. Each piece (Vaporizer) was located on an illuminated pedestal equipped with minicomputers and proximity sensors, so that when the viewer approached each pedestal, the image was automatically reproduced. respective video. Each video combines animation and live action techniques.
