On a street market in Athens I bought this battery-powered bike, which drives in circles. I placed Ken, Barbie’s boyfriend, on the bike and installed a drip infusion containing black ink on his back. Ken rode the bike in circles by steadily dripping ink on the large sheet of paper, whereby redistributing the ink with the tires of the bike. After 2.5 hours he stopped because the batteries were empty.
