E-Waste™ Workshop

To better understand our daily environment it is interesting and essential to explore the fields of software programming and hardware design. Our life is full of computers and electronic devices that we trash as soon as they are obsolete. This behaviour represent a problematic issue in term of environment and recycling. So this workshop have different objective : help the participant and the public to understand better his environment, demystify technology and specially electronic and show the possibilities and importance of e-waste recycling.

With the E-WASTE™ workshop we [KarlKlomp, Lourens Rozema, Bnjmn™ Gaulon] try to bring together both aspects, the artistic interest that can be found in hardware hacking / recycling and also to give an echo to the issues brought by electronic junks. Actually most of the occidental electronic garbage [mobile phones, computers, etc… highly toxic] is "recycled" in China or India in really bad conditions.
