The Campaign Finance Machine is an interactive art installation, exhibited at Harvard Innovation Labs, Cambridge, USA. It invited people to put their hands on the control panel controlling the money flow. The tangibility, the sound, and the mechanical movement of each of the US $100 bills reflected the rates at which money is being put in campaign finance versus other expenditures.
