JƤgermeister x MOTHER FACTORY The Human Flesh Tap Machine

Want to see something disturbing? If you donā€™t, now is a good time to leave. But if you do, keep on reading but make sure you arenā€™t the squeamish kind. Now that we have gotten the warning out of the way… do you remember doooo? Aka MOTHER FACTORY, a human flesh art brand behind the hyperrealistic mouth coin purse and the human meat die with an animatronic eye. Well, a couple of months ago, it collaborated with German beer JƤgermeister (itā€™s an herbal liquor, for those who donā€™t know) in Japan for a JƤgermeister dispenser called, wait for itā€¦ The Human Flesh Tap Machine.

It is not an actual product you buy, by the way. The Human Flesh Tap Machine was, I believe, created as part of the marketing campaign in Japan. It is definitely not for the faint of the heart. It is a cube-like machine wrapped in flesh-like skin that has a less-than-perfect straightness, bringing out the organic nature of the machine.

It is cool and all, and not quite disturbing until you realize that the tap handle is modeled after a humanā€™s calf with a heel but without the foot, and the tap is actually a mouth. If that is not disturbing enough both the calf and the sides of the machine are debossed with the ā€œJƤgermeisterā€ branding, complete with a reddish skin tone surrounding the words that make the branding look like it has been hot pressed into the skin. Yikes.

Rounding up the design is an alien-like skin-textured tail (yes, a tail!) which you can install on the back to hide the back panel and cable mess – if you so choose to.

The JƤgermeister x MOTHER FACTORY The Human Flesh Tap Machine was the star of a marketing campaignā€™s short film dubbed ā€œAWAKENINGā€ directed by Anthony Yano Hays of Tokyo-based creative production company NAKAMA.

The tail also doubles as a platform for a shot glass.
