I was zipping around in the Cushman the other day and it was such a nice sunny day so when I saw this dumpster I parked Herman, turned up the music and hopped in. In the rubble I saw the back of something with buttons wired in a way similar to arcade games, I turned it over and puzzled for a second and then realized what it was: holy shit it's a frickin peep show booth. A bunch of them. Man, nature does provide, just like the bible says.

It's funny because I'd been talking about making a peep show booth for our next party. Man oh man.

I got about 7 or 8 booth interfaces in various conditions, here's some pics of one of them:

Shitty ass picture, but note the illuminated buttons. They're a 6-volt circuit, very easy to tap into. And then I squished a baby back there, the same baby that was spinning around on a solar-powered platform all last week while we were camping at Pyramid Lake.

Incidentally, here's a couple of pics of that installation. Note the knife in the head, and also note the solar panel in the rear, it spins the motor that baby's mounted on (it also charges Lester to keep us in the music and lights all night every night). Everything looks better spinning, that's my motto. And there's the namesake pyramid of Pyramid Lake in the background, it's probably 300 feet high and an easy paddle out on my surfboard, and paddling around the thing you find lots of little hot spring gushes, frickin coolio, but that's another story.

So the idea is baby would tell your future, you ask baby a question and approach baby and when you cast a shadow on the solar panel baby stops and you can read what baby's 8-ball has to say. The only problem was baby didn't change her predictions all that often, in other words the 8-ball wouldn't get agitated enough to change fortunes, but that's alright, it at least gives you a good prediction once. But back to the porn booth.

Here's a closeup of baby wedged behind the glass

And here's a very dark night pic that sort of shows how things are illuminated. Note that baby is dimly lit with red LED light from below, it gives it a feeling like the holograms in teh Camera Obscura.

A closeup of the buttons. I'd love for the buttons to do things, like you press one and the baby jiggles, another and a bat falls down on her, etc. Sort of lampoon the whole dehumanizing harshess of the porn industry. Or maybe I just want to have fun with baby.

Are you sick of looking at this thing yet? The reason this shot is here is to show off the silver napkin holder mounted above. That's a 100% genuine and for real porn booth napkin holder that has seen lots and lots of duty. Eeeeew. Erika took a napkin from it yesterday and now her period is late.... I also have a 100% genuine porn booth mop handle, which brings to mind the phrase Dave likes to say, "you drop em we mop em".

And there's lots more booths where this one came from....

I also got a couple of porn booth doors, complete with nice metal industrial strength door jams.

A closeup of the graphic. I think that's so beautiful.

Also beautiful in its way, the brain behind the booth. I'd love to reconstruct all the wiring to one of the booths, but it's probably beyond me. But man.

And the red things are a couple of panels that I think went along the floor to let people know when a booth was in use.

A close-up, with suspicious drippings....

And another doll goofus installed at the R, bunch of dolls affixed to the basketball net, they make interesting doll clacking noises when you sink a basket.
