The object itself looks like a big cockroach and consists of a small vibration motor, some electrical parts and a big battery. Many of these ”small animals“ (objects) are attached underneath various tables of restaurants, cafés, bars, etc. using double-faced adhesive tape. The „host of the parasite“, the table vibrates in pulsed form, similar to a cell phone ringing on the table. The visitors are alarmed: „Is it my phone or yours?“ After a few rings the vermin rests for half an hour.
