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.
