Step 22Art Toilets

Art Toilets
Star made this toilet into a "talking toilet" interactive artwork. She painted the seat to look a mouth with tempura paint.
She butt-proofed it with many coats of clear acrylic spraypaint.
Then she added electronics to add speech capability.
She waterproofed the electronics using military methods.
The toilet says "Mmm delicious! Feed me more!". That is very disturbing to some people. This toilet doesn't get much use anymore.
Her "Rage against the Latrine" is more popular.
