Survival Research Laboratories from San Francisco
Appearing in Austin, Texas
Friday, March 28, 1997 at the Longhorn Speedway,
6401 U.S. 183 South, Austin TX 78744

SRL isn't beautiful, it isn't nice, it isn't spiritually elevating. It casts
the darkest kind of suspicion on the lives we lead and the twisted
ingenuity that supports those lives.

Survival Research Laboratories was conceived and founded by
Mark Pauline in 1978. Since its inception, SRL has operated as an
organization of creative technicians dedicated to redirecting the
techniques, tools, and tenets of industry and science away from
their typical manifestations in practicality or product. They have
staged over 47 mechanized presentations in the United States and
Europe. Each performance consists of a unique set of ritualized
interactions between machines, robots, and special effects devices,
employed in developing themes of socio-political satire. Humans are
present only as audience or operators.For media information:
