Furntiure develops appetite for flesh



Science, art and pure evil collide in the form of artist James Auger's terrifying new carnivourous robotic furniture.

Currently built to sustain themselves by digesting wayward flies and insects into their internal microbial fuel cells, it's only a small step to imagine what kind of energy boost this 'furniture' will get from their natural prey; imagine a loungeroom full of ravenous, hungry sofas and a pack of obese games nerds amped up on Red Bull and pop tarts. It's enough to make you buy a Wii Fit and never sit down again!
