Real Work

Found this neat video on core77: Mark Moskovitz's Real Work

This video is a head to head competition of dirt collecting between the artist using a Dyson Vacuum and the artist only using his hands and saliva to see who can collect more dirt; essentially a battle between ingenuity through technology and ingenuity through elbow grease. While it doesn't advocate that we trash the concept of the vacuum, it does remind us of an era before we used electricity and machines for everything, even that which didn't necessarily need it.
