Gone are the days when people's interest could
be held by simple radio or television. Today we're
bombarded with information and we crave interac-

of our time. Advertisers recognize the difficulty of
presenting messages that cut through the clutter,

can start your own kiosk advertising campaign. You
can also use the setup for practical jokes, or just to
amaze or amuse your friends.
