The BrainCar by Olaf Mooji

From WHOA:

The BrainCar was created by Rotterdam artist, Olaf Mooji, and is a mobile sculpture that features a brain-like extrusion on the back of a modified used car. During the day, the vehicle drives around (operated by a human driver, obviously) and captures and stores images and video from its travels. During the night, the footage is remixed and projected from within the brain sculpture and visible to passersby on the outside. Mooji’s body of work involves the alteration of motor vehicles in pieces that express the nearly psychological connection between drivers and their cars. In the case of the BrainCar, Mooji wondered what it would be like if “…the car itself could experience with a kind of consciousness its own passage through spacetime.”
