ScrapCycle(reUSE/reCOMBINE): Analogous Interaction Art Incubator Fellows Performance

SAT MAY 22ND | 9PM | ADMISSION = REFUSE FOR REUSE |


ScrapCycle is an annual upcycling event that places an exchange-value on upcycled and reused materials, in order to probe the environmental effects of economic perspective: Events require a piece of refuse for reuse as the price of admission. Admission materials are used for on-site installations, directed toward local upcycling artists, or repurposed as holiday gift wrap. These action-based economic and environmental aspects of ScrapCycle refer to the act of reuse as requiring us to approach everyday decisions from a use-value perspective, which is in opposition to our collective exchange-value upbringing.

On Saturday, May 22nd, Analogous Projects Interaction Art Incubator Fellows Nick Lesley (in Gunung Sari) and Torino:Margolis will perform their handmade and circuitbent wares.

All ScrapCycle events require a piece of refuse for reuse as the price of admission. Found water bottles are the preferred admission material, and will be redirected to upcycling artists Katherine Liberovskaya and Keiko Uenishi.
