Brain Tumour helmets with Microwaves

Brain Tumour helmets with Microwaves, by Australian artist Ian Haig, explores the impact of microwaves and their role in producing brain tumors, as in technologies such as mobile phones.

Two specially designed helmets direct tumour-inducing microwave radiations into the brain as the wearer moves throughout an installation of video monitors and antennas.

The artist is also the author of the Anti ergonomic hump machine , a vicious chair that induces bad posture and promotes humps in the back of computer users.
