The Perpetual Storytelling Apparatus — by the German artists Julius von Bismarck & Benjamin Maus — is a drawing machine illustrating a never-ending story by the use of patent drawings. It was the winning entry for the Arco BEEP Award 2010.

The machine translates words of a text into patent drawings. Seven million patents — linked by over 22 million references — form the vocabulary. By using references to earlier patents, it is possible to find paths between arbitrary patents. They form a kind of subtext.

New visual connections and narrative layers emerge through the interweaving of the story with the depiction of technical developments.
