BALLS FOR CTHULHU (2013)
A pentagram shaped pinball game emblazoned with fluorescent graphics by
the Rev Kriss Hades depicting the lord of the deep ones. A multiplayer
pinball game with five players stationed at each of the stars five
points. The outer triangular walls of the star are made from ten guitars
with their fret boards facing inward into the playfield, while in the
central pentagon ten pop bumpers are connected to a drum machine. These
are all connected to various audio effects triggered by targets
positioned throughout the game. So when the balls bounce off the strings
distorted open tunings are produced while the pop bumpers accompany the
din with a chaotic drum solo.
