The fundamental truth of our times is that resources are finite. Thinking in cyclical rather than linear terms can change that, reusing and repurposing disposables to maximize their potential, we artistically demonstrate how trash is a source of inspiration and wish to democratize the making of art.
All our modules operate as platforms to present our digital artwork. 3D visuals are fabricated using creative coding skills and synchronized with sounds. We fuse different media through the hacking of machines and sensors. This technique invites people to engage on a multisensory level for a dynamic experience.

Fundació Formació i Treball, la Fundació CHM Salut Mental i el Departament d'Arts Visuals i Disseny de la Universitat de Barcelona, col·laboren al projecte de reutilització, reciclatge i economia circular 'Parelles Creatives - Trastos vells'.
Convertir soles de sabata, plàstics que provenen de restes de joguines o roba usada, en productes innovadors, com ara safates de cultiu hidropònic, un rascador de gats, un tendal o un gronxador, no és qüestió de màgia, sinó qüestió de consciència, creativitat i cocreació entre diversos agents. Si a més, a aquesta iniciativa, amb una clara vocació mediambiental, se li suma el valor social que aporta, el resultat és el projecte 'Parelles Creatives - Trastos vells'.

Upcycling vs. Recycling
Unter Upcycling versteht man die kreative Wiederverwertung vermeintlich nicht mehr brauchbarer Materialien und Reststoffe in Form von neuen Designs. Die Ausgangsmaterialien werden – im Gegensatz zum Recycling – durch die neue, hochwertige Verarbeitung aufgewertet und sind daher neu hergestellten Produkten mindestens ebenbürtig. So werden ausrangierte Ölfässer zu einzigartigen Lampen und alte Zementsäcke zu Laptophüllen umfunktioniert.

Re-cycling findet immer statt, früh oder spät, mit oder ohne unser Einverständnis. Upcycling dagegen öffnet den geschlossenen Kreis des Recyclings, um ihn in eine aufsteigende Spirale zu verwandeln: Obsoletes neu zu arrangieren, damit etwas Besseres entsteht, etwas Überlegenes. Dies geschieht nicht ohne menschliche Entscheidung, ohne Kurswechsel, ohne Politik.

We propose an innovative upcycling platform which will completely change the way you think about waste.

We’re not content with teaching repair skills in the community – we want to generate a repair revolution. This means changing the way people use and dispose of resources, encouraging manufacturers to build things to last and to be fixable, and making sure the facilities are in place to allow people to repair and reuse.
