Looks like machine vomit.

eerily reminds me of the creepy typewriter in Naked Lunch

If you were to crop this photo to block out the grass and keypad, it would look like some unknown industrial disaster area.

Johnny you took the works out of my mouth. It really does remind me of Office Space when they smash the printer in a field. Interesting photo!

Behold: The flaw in the "an infinite number of monkeys typing on an infinite number of typewriters will eventually recreate all the works of William Shakespeare" postulate.
Damn dirty apes.
Oh yeah, nice pic.

I once saw Bill Brasky use this typewriter to create the greatest work of fiction in the history of mankind. Glad someone got a pic of what is perhaps the single most important piece of technology ever. Great work!

No Location this time?? we want to know where you found it? on the corner of right and left? or on top of some non related non-descriptive corner? That is a shame; You give up so soon. Keep it up and you could have build your own geography book.

You will have to write a lengthy treatise about your morbid fascination with Whitby Psych

That deserved an extreme macro-close up!

I have been looking at your photos for months now. I absolutely love them. This one especially struck me because of "naked lunch" my all time favorite book/movie. Was this just a coincidence or have you read or seen the film?

Ah, I was just at Whitby Psych this past weekend. It is quite the place, and one could stay for hours, and hours, and hours and still find hundreds of subjects to shoot.

It's funny, while I was there I found one or two spots and was thinking, 'hey this is where Sam took this shot, and this is where he took that one...' Your stuff is great, memorable and inspirational. Keep it up!

Have you heard of the band Grandaddy? They've a record called 'The Sophtware Slump' and this reminds me of the artwork from it. Very nice indeed, love a bit of broken machinery.
