Key Concepts
Key Concepts of Recycle-X are expressed in ideas of:
-
URBAN REGENERATION - from refurbishing Voorstraat#183 and setting up information system (banners across the street, unused shop windows...), to spatial and media interventions (on street, facade, canal, bridge...) as well as establishing new ways to re-visit the city (making it strange/unusual)...check out history of street and it's representation (like prostitution)
-
LIVE LAB - from setup of webcams, to establishing new resources (space), expertise (technologies) and offerings in new media products and services
-
CITY BIOLOGY - knowing natural, harvesting useful, self-growing edible... (hydroponics)
-
D-I-Y EDUCATION - in learning by doing together with participants and expert guests
-
Re-PRODUCTION - from recycling hardware and distributing media (?zine) to re-producing of experimental prototypes and small edition products (solar charger, distributed media AV player...)
-
WEB EFFECTS - from viral marketing in social networks (FB, twitter, youtube, flick, Google maps?, 3D repositories...) to utilizing virtual social/creative capital to establish site-specific activity in physical environment
