Make your own alcohol!

Atelier Van Lieshout has come with The Mini Alcohol installation and The Multi-Funnel. This project envisions fictional society Technocrat comprising of 1000 members called burghers. This Technocrat project is a closed circuit of food, alcohol, excrement, and energy in which burgher generates enough raw material to produce valuable biogas that is used to cook the food and produce alcohol.

This system involves four stages the Burghers, the Total Faecal Solution, the Alcoholator and the Feeder.

According to the supply of burghers and the availability of food, their lifespan can be manipulated. The Total Faecal Solution recycles human excrement. The Feeder produces and manages cheap food that generates a maximum output of feaces. The alcohol distribution installation and multi-funnel feeding system serve to keep the 'burghers' populating the Technocrat, snoozed and satisfied.
