Pace Maker | 2005 Mixed Media | 1 Object 140/149/220 | 3 C-Prints 600/450 »Pace Maker« is a training device to improve performance for extreme workout. It consists of a facial mask with a valve and an embedded pedometer which counts the amount of steps per timeframe. The valve opens or closes depending on the stepping speed of the user, which has to be set at the beginning of the training. If the speed is too low, the device starts to suffocate the user which mobilises all power reserves.
