Comment on The Closed Loop Experiment by Fabián Fucci

Very creative experiment! Without being aware really of it, I have been doing something alike in my own workroom. I am focusing on plastic bottles and bags, and cardboard cores from toilet and kitchen paper. I must say that tips from the internet for reusing these seriously (not art-related) are pretty useless, and I have to come up with my own ideas for turning them into something useful. PET bottles seem to be the hardest for serious reuse, but I keep trying new ideas. Your site is an inspiration to me.

what i like about the concept of e-books is it does not use up energy unless the book is read. we can just imagine the many unwanted hardcopies of books that are printed every year (more than stores can sell.) and by the time it has reached the store, the trees have already been cut, and ink, and gas already used – even if no one actually reads it! with e-books, the supply matches the demand, and no energy or resources are consumed unless the e-book’s pages are being turned.

Thanks Logan! Right now I am laser cutting some initial prototypes out of acrylic. Eventually, if people are interested in buying them I would love to make them out of recycled plastic!

I am making these prototypes for a show happening in two weeks. You should swing by Octane June 11th for “Fixed: An Exhibition of Repaired Objects”. There will be some amazing products there from a bunch of designers in Atlanta.

Thanks J! Don’t worry I opened the window!

I was thnking about doing a bunch of different sized ones… different colors… depending on the bag. I shrunk an H&M bag, it looks pretty crazy.

One struggle I’m having… yes, its made out of an otherwise landfill destined material.. but as a light, its also using electricity. Hmm…

WOOOOW those lamps look ah-mazing. It would look so awesome if there was a bunch of different shaped ones. (I hope the apartment doesn’t smell like burnt plastic).
Anyways, you brought up an interesting point about the value of plastic- it’s deemed “cheap” but in reality it isn’t.

That’s not a bad idea. Or maybe a big sleeve-like bag, like how sleeping bags are carried. I have a friend who works at Continental, might talk to her about the details of checking luggage!
