It's not new : it's in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) since 2001. It's called ''Distrorobo''. Link (in french) : http://www.distroboto.archivemontreal.org/?lang=fr
Art-o-mat was est. 1997. :)
"Distrorobo" is French for "blatant Art-O-Mat ripoff". Come on Canada - think of something original (other than the Trailer Park Boys of course, which everyone knows is the best thing to ever come out of that frozen wasteland).
