This is from the Edible Exhibit that Prof. Mark Koven & his class from UNC-A put on in Pack Place some two weeks ago.

The only Journey that I know of is my 80s band which I was the lead singer :)

Actually, the couch seems to be upholstered with potato chip bags, while the chips themselves are merely glued to the armrest.

I certainly hope they used an environmentally friendly glue.
Or, at least, a semi-edible one.

Not feeling the "artistic + edible" groove, on this one.

@ Annie -- No, the bags that "upholstered" the couch were filled with chips also.

I am sure the APD will have the bench removed so the homeless can not make drug deals from it!

Glad to see their teaching such useful, relevant things up on the hill. I'm sure all those students will make excellent McDonald employees.

Yea, but they'll just "lose" it and it'll wind up back on the streets.
