Absolut vodka have worked on an arty project called Absolut Machines that tries to explore the boundaries of artificial intelligence, music, technology and creativity. It all seems to be an interesting mix of robots or mechanical machines and computer generated music. The real world locations are in Stockholm and NY and online users can interact with the installation.
There are lots more great pics of the robots being installed on this Flickr set.

I’d love to see a retro Absolut machine like the original internet coke machine, telling you online how many bottles were available and how cold they were.
OK, so selling to minors might be an issue, but it would make a great retro web project

Do you mean an Absolut vending machine? I would love to see vending machines in every bar or club where you have to queue at the bar for hours just to get a drink.
