Bread and sausage. One of the most common and sensible combinations of two foods. Eating a piece of bread and a sausage means covering the body's calorie and energy requirements quickly and efficiently by providing carbohydrates and proteins. The campaign includes a demonstration of the "fast sausage machine". I developed the machine especially for this event. It enables 6 sausages (Wienerli) to be heated to bite-sized temperatures in a record-breaking time. The energy source is electricity. The sausages, embedded as electrical resistors in the current flow, are heated by the briefly high current flow. My intention is to provide everyone present in the movie theater with a hot sausage (and a piece of bread) within the shortest possible time. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own mustard! The campaign satirizes the use of time. The "fast sausage machine" helps to reduce the time needed to prepare food to a minimum. The time saved can also be deducted as "free time". Max Bottini, 2007
