Lapjuicer

“Redesign a food processor…” Royal College of Art brief

The Lapjuicer is intended to be used by a lap-dancer in a club. The performer uses their body with the object, in order to extract fruit juices that can be drunk by one or more spectators.

fggffffd

Imagine someone making your favourite cocktail with a Lapjuicer… it’s for girls and boys - who do you want to see using it?

The Lapjuicer embodies a step beyond the strict ‘look but don’t touch’ policies enforced in many clubs…

“you can’t touch - but you can drink my juice…”

Initially a seven day project that resulted in a prototype model in Autumn 2003, this project was revisited in Spring 2005.

The Lapjuicer being demonstrated at the Royal College of Art Postgradtuate Degree Show, June 2005.

The prototype has now been superseded by finished versions, one of which is on exhibit in The Victoria & Albert Museum (London) between June 16th and August 29th 2005. It will be part of an exhibition entitled ‘Touch Me’.

Lapjuicers are available to order. Please contact us for further details.
