Chaos Machine (toy)
The original Chaos Machine is an ever-evolving collection of Chaos Toy[definition needed] sets gathered together by Steve Jackson, founder of Steve Jackson Games (SJ Games). Other Chaos Machines have begun to grow (see External Links).[1][2]
Chaos Machines appear at gaming and science fiction conventions, where attendees are encouraged to create, modify, tune, and improvise new gadgets (stunts) for the rolling-ball construction.
At each sitting, the machine is set up as a basic framework by the Machine Wranglers,[definition needed] then participants (Mechanics) begin to build tracks, install ball lifts, add stunts, and generally have a good time learning and problem-solving.
Over time more sets are added, so the machine grows larger with each appearance. Recently,[when?] an electronic network has been designed to add ball sensing and counting, event-controlled path switching, lighting effects, and additional sound effects.
