Be careful, kids - this is the result of having too much time on your hands!

A man in Wichita, KS, has wired his entire kitchen together creating a bizarre room of wires and power supplies that collectively allow him to turn on the faucet, activate the microwave, brew coffee, toast bread and even cook food.

Jason Fremont from Wichita County College is not surprisingly pursuing a degree in electrical engineering. He claims that the inspiration for the project was fairly simple:

“If a living room’s wired… and a car is wired… why not wire everything? I wanted to improve on reality.”

However, whether or not his invention is an improvement is debatable. Wires crisscross all over the kitchen, over counters and into pantries. Miniature power supplies fit into boxes of sugar and salt, and then tubes connecting on the inside of the boxes allow funneling of the powders into various places around the kitchen. Furthermore, despite being entirely electrically wired, the technology is completely low-tech and the application of it is unreasonable.

But Jason remains optimistic. “I believe this kitchen is the future of the world. I imagine everywhere you go being electrified. It’ll be great.”
