About the Book
The Engine was a live image search performance by Andreas Schmidt, Jonathan Lewis and Mishka Henner which took place at the Whitworth Art Gallery in Manchester, England, from 7.30pm to 10.30pm on Friday 16 December 2011.
Using the pseudonyms 'Engine Ex', 'Engine Why' and 'Engine Zed', each artist was stationed at a computer in the main exhibition space, conducting live searches and posting visual responses to each other's posts. A live feed of the page was projected onto the gallery wall.
Visitors to the performance and to the Facebook page were invited to comment on the images as they appeared.
The book 'The Engine' is a printed record of the performance.
