Der Elektrische Mönch is an ´interpassive´ artificial limb for generating religious faith. A prayer wheel is assembled on top of a super 8 camera and is constantly spinning and piling up good karma´. The electric monk „prays“ for its beholders who is believing in the force of the electronic camera.
