Three artists respond to Ed Ruscha, Mason Williams, and Patrick Blackwell who created Royal Road Test in 1967. The new approach transforms men into women, manual typewriter into a Macintosh Plus computer, Los Angeles environs and licence plate into Ontario's. The bulk of these b/w images document the shattered remains of the machine and other evidance of destruction.
