By Robert Denham.  It may be difficult to find glamour in a garbage disposal or pilot light; a dishwasher may not ever catch our eye until it breaks and it is time to call someone to repair it; vacuum cleaners and coffee makers?  These are tools that we use to make our lives just a little bit easier.  But in the scheme of things these appliances do have something in common: we have come to depend on them, and though we do not normally take notice of them when they are there, we certainly do miss them when they are not.  These machines wield an eerie sense of power then, whether by giving off a soothing drone that lulls us to sleep, or by subtly dripping their steaming contents into a hot carafe, or by creating a sense of mystery with a small flicker of flame burning softly in a basement corner.  Uses some non-traditional accessories:

Hydromute: a metal straight mute is best

2 cups

2 5-gallon buckets

2 bowls half-way filled with water

1 card-table

1 tarp
