Not music - it is an art project.

And this specially converted car can make you feel - well - like death warmed over  :D

I want to know, which basis car is used and who is the artist.

Are they supposed to be oil, moving inside an engine? Perhaps, part of a commercial for motor oil or filters?

Intersting idea... :D

But it was not a commercial - this was an art project.

Big hint:

they move while not really moving...

Could they be in a driving simulator and they're blacked out so that their reflections don't interfere with what they're looking at?

It not a simulator - they really move, but not the "normal" way...

The man behind the steering wheel is the artist.

I knew he would unearth again...     :P

No not him. And not a Nazi.

But the prominent man shared a function with AH.

When you got the prominent manīs name youīll have the artistīs name in a blink of an eye...
