Little update on my plants-growing-out-of-keyboards project for my CART class.
Even if we had some crappy weather the last week, the plants are receiving A-1 care and doing great. This week was especially exciting as many new keyboards started having some new green stuff coming out of it. I still have about a week before I have to make the book about them.

I’ve worked hard on my new CART project this weekend, which consists mainly to get small plants, grass, veggies and other stuff growing from emptied keyboard and mouse cases. While running around town to find some old hardware, I realized that even stores had a hard time getting rid of their obsolete stuff – even getting everything reshipped to China seemed pretty expensive, and there aren’t tons of organizations that take them in for recycling. I’m going to try to make this a central concern in the project, hopefully I can draw some inspiration from Manufactured Landscapes…

Other small thing, I DONT KNOW what people do with their keyboards or where they put them, but taking them apart was very disgusting, in many cases. Hopefully this will transform into a positive element that will be reflected in the plants that arise from them! Pictures…
