Drastic Plastic Reduction is in full effect.
We recognize our lives revolve fully in both the information age & the disposable age.
As we interact with the world, most bits of data & goods fly through our lives in a split moment, barely pausing for us to take notice, rarely staying long enough to appreciate. Attachment to things, in this post-industrial United States, is a baffling dissonance. We are infinitely attached to consuming things and at the exact some moment throw out as much as possible. The cycle continues ad infinitum. Until Now.
For the next month, our five lives in this old house will intersect & deconstruct these ages. The Ramshackle rejects easy disposal, embraces information & ditches plastic. goodbye plastic & all the baggage that come with it.
Looking for a break in our ever-growing consumerism and our increasingly large garbage haul, the ramshackle is going plastic free. We’ve committed to not buy or consume any new plastic, especially not bringing plastic into the house, for the month of August.
This is a rough game and we don’t expect perfection. But we do want to take note. Our collective adventure and subsequent tales will be posted here for public consumption.
