Rage Against the Machine by Tricia Tanaka

February 1st, 2008 9:17 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Rage against The Machine. (Perhaps direct your Rage towards a member of Equivalenz.)

Ok, so I was going to unscrew this phone and see what was inside, then put it back together.
Then I can't find my screwdrivers, so I have to hunt all over for them.
When I find them, they're not the right type anyways. The phone requires a screwdriver with the tip divided into three parts.
I have never seen a screwdriver like this.
So instead, I get really annoyed and decide to just crack the thing open with a hammer.
Hammer doesn't work.
So finally, using a combination of wedges, hammers, screwdrivers and my strongest appendages I manage to pop it open.
Though "pop" is an inadequate term. It took a lot of time and muscle power.

So instead of taking it apart putting it back together in an orderly fashion, I basically smash the thing.
Now it's in several pieces. At least it wasn't a very good phone in the first place and the battery was missing
So here's the pictures of me taking my rage out on the machine.
When I was done, I wasn't really angry. The data cards or whatever inside computers and phones are so beautiful.
Emerald and gold, with tiny wires running in patterns across them, and squares that look like little envelopes.
It's the most amazing art. And people rarely see it.

(P.S. I'm starting to get a headache, and I'm wondering if there's any poisonous metals or materials in phones. Anyone know?)

The phone

It is ugly on the outside, but pretty on the inside, as yo will see.


After the pop

After the pop

Cute rubber keys! Spiffy screen! Beauty begins to be revealed...


Pieces

Pieces

Keys, screens, shell and back.


Parts

Parts

The back end of the phone revealed. See the scratches of the lower right panel? There's some sort of coating on the back that, when scratched, reveals a graphite-like substance. Works much like a scratch-off lotto ticket. Along the bottom (not shown) it says "May 21 2001"


Documenting quells my rage...

All of the pieces from the phone.

You should take apart fifty more and then make a giant collage with them, and then submit THAT for What do cell phones mean!
