Painstation is an art object and arcade game based on Pong developed by two German artists, Tilman Reiff and Volker Morawe. After talks with Sony, the artists described the Painstation as 'The artwork formerly known as Painstation.'
The Painstation consists of a specially made case which gives two players the opportunity of playing a specially adapted and expanded variant of the classic video game, Pong, against each other.
During the game, the players place their left hands on the 'Pain Execution Unit' which serves as a sensor and feedback instrument. Possible feedback effects are heat impulses, an electric shock and an integrated miniature wire whip.
