OR have viewer interactive stationary bikes with sound, light and spray foam inundation. Definitely something that would be called insane or a waste by many. You did say money was no object.

This is me working on a project that I rode a bicycle a couple hundred miles to get to. It was my buddys studio, we do collaborative video projected onto textile sculptures. I was always pretty relaxed after riding two one hundred mile days. the structure in the front is one of our video canvases. Most of my sculpture that I make just to make, is designed with the idea of transporting it to location by bike, but it has no bicycle imagery itself.
Thinking like that will get you a government grant.
