Better Than Nothing: Sculpture Generates Minimum Wage

Minimum Wage Machine

The Minimum Wage Machine is an artwork made by Blake Fall-Conroy. Anyone who interacts with the machine can “work” for a minimum wage.

Turning the crank by hand will yield one penny every five seconds, adding up to $7.15 an hour, which is New York State’s current minimum wage.

I’m curious to know who fills the Wage Machine up when the box is empty!
