Object Solutions: The Future is Forever Arriving

This Austin Studio Tour, step into Object Solutions—a fictional corporate universe where everyday needs are 'solved' with bleakly absurd inventions. In a moment when it's increasingly hard to distinguish tech promises from parody, this immersive installation questions what we're actually optimizing for.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Experience our operational showroom featuring the Core77 Design Award-winning TalkTomb (a conference chamber for eternal video calls), the FlavorFeeder (a sustenance port reducing eating to flavor on demand), and other breakthrough innovations. Browse our product portfolio, watch hypnotic retail videos, and immerse yourself in a polished corporate environment that takes optimization culture to its extreme.

This is not your typical gallery visit—it's an experience equal parts sleek showroom and dark satire, revealing both the seductive appeal and existential cost of outsourcing our lives to branded solutions.

ORACLE SESSIONS:

Book a 15-minute personalized consultation where our CEO uses oracle cards to design custom inventions for your everyday challenges. Each session transforms your specific problems into bespoke solutions through a collaborative invention process. Walk away with your personalized future, engineered on the spot.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Object Solutions is created by Austin-based artist Ernesto D. Morales, whose work has been featured in Motherboard, Design Observer, The Daily Beast, Dezeen, and on The Today Show. His design practice has exhibited at MIT, Shanghai Museum of Glass (permanent collection), and Galveston Arts Center. As a firstborn immigrant who grew up between Mexico City and Houston, Morales brings a critical outsider perspective to American consumer culture and tech industry narratives.
