Leisure Research Unit


24 hours to build a Ping-Pong table for a temporary gallery.

Response:

Change the bats instead of the table, smaller and easier. After playing around

I realized that the centre of the bat is not used that much. I removed a slightly bigger than ball sized hole from the bats, lending a surprise aspect to the game. It worked fine but sometimes you went for the ball and it passed through the bat. To present this ‘research’ I created the Leisure Research Unit at the Royal College of Art, complete with lab-coats, safety glasses, name-tags and nerds.
