Two rectangular pocket calculators with LCD displays, made from transparent, red or purple plastic. The round keys are made of soft white plastic with black overprint. The pocket calculator offers the basic calculating functions and a memory function. A transparent plastic box is affixed directly to the left side of the calculator. The box is divided into two chambers which are connected to each other by two holes. They contain two fluids which cannot mix with each other (one colourless and the other a milky, slightly pigmented fluid) and which smell strongly of organic solvents. Overall dimensions of the pocket calculator: 6.5 x 10.2 x 1.0 cm.
