Crush is an immersive live artwork for auto car washes that explores ritual cleansing for the robot age.

Created by theatre maker Sam Routledge and composer Dylan Sheridan, audiences experience the work from inside a vehicle as it is being cleaned.

Evoking the drive in cinema, audiences tune into the soundtrack via the FM radio in their vehicle as it is transmitted live on site. As the large automated robot goes about its work, Sheridan’s score syncs to its movements, in a powerful look at the future of our relationships with machines.

In the Default project the bicycle can be seen as the studio of the artist. The twelve cyclists together form a caravan. The limited speed of the conveyor enables the group to delve into the territoire, which consists of the landscape, history, social and economic context, architecture, nature, people, and so on.
