Designer Yogi Proctor coated a Canon copier in gold. It is, sadly, no longer functional. So it may not be a good buy if you're in the market for a new copier.
When asked to explain why he made it, Proctor cryptically responded:
Well, I happened to re-hear the famous JFK speech on the radio that was actually written by Ted Sorensen, who himself modified it from a Khalil Gibran speech. It goes "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."
I knew exactly what I could do. I could make a golden photocopier that doesn't make any copies. Art is great like that. You make it to share with people.

Is it really gold plated or did he just rub gold leaf on it?
