Trashy | Human Keyboard

Project Trashy is about making electronic trash into art. The project was first founded by Artist Mizou in 2016. Electronic trash is quite different than other kind of waste. Most of the E-waste are decomposed and put into production again - the downcycle way, but the process takes quite a amount of energy according to physics law.

What we're doing is the upcycle way: those wastes we collected were mostly personal belongings people still kept for the memories inside them. Some e-waste still work well but they are bypassed by rapid pace of technology. We want to revoke the unspoken and the forgotten part in the electronic trash by our work.

The project is open sourced art, most of them are co-created by all kinds of people in an art workshop curated and hosted by the artist Mizou. Students, programmers, rocket engineer, girl who work in electronic industry  and etc.They brought their own unique e-waste and make them into art work without boundaries.



Project Trashy 是把电子垃圾变成艺术品,由艺术家米走在2016年初创建。今年我们决定让Trashy成为一个超越创作者的开源艺术项目。

电子垃圾和其他类型的垃圾不同,大多电子垃圾都被分解然后重新投入生产 - 传统的向下循环的方法,我们想要的则是保持电子垃圾本身的样子,发觉其除了产品之外的意味。我们所收集的电子垃圾大多是人们还保存着的产品,有时是舍不得曾经包含的回忆, 有的产品本身还可以正常使用,只是被时代抛弃了而已。我们想要的,就是用艺术去挖掘这其中的意味。

Trashy是一个开源的艺术项目。大部分的作品都由各种身份的素人在米走主持和指导的艺术工作坊中完成。他们有程序员、学生、火箭工程师、在电厂工作的女孩等等。他们来带自己独一无二的电子垃圾,并把它们做出没有类型限制的艺术作品。
