Psychic desk

An Invisible Force[1]Artist Crispin Jones's "An Invisible Force" is a beautiful antique desk that answers your Magic 8 Ball-esque questions:

"The surface of the desk is laser-cut into a grid. The user selects a question they want answered from the special packs of question cards. The user then inserts the card in the slot on the table, they press the card down and hold it down until the end of the answer. The answer to the question is gradually spelt out on the surface of the desk, the surface of the desk becomes a sort of physical dot-matrix display. A metal plate under the user's hand heats up, so the user if forced to endure a level of pain in order to see the final answer."
