The Skull: Ongoing Re-use


A big 9 foot tall skull made of (not so) toxic waste. Eyes and teeth made of flat panels. Streaming audio, text messages and more. This is the latest piece of artwork from the Alameda Computer Resource Center. They refurb and give away over 1,000 computers a year, and divert over 300,000 pounds of electronic waste to recyclers per month.

About the Maker(s)

James Burgett James Burgett
Award winning, deranged, re-use geek with a rather subversive view of technology (technology doesn't poison the planet; people do). In my secret identity, I run the Alameda Computer Resource Center, refurb and give away over 1,000 computers a year, and divert approx 300,000 pounds of electronic waste to recyclers per month.
