talking about her recent endeavor – the restart project:
Putting an end to electronic waste : TEDxBrixton
repair, reuse, recycle.. we’ve lost the first two r’s (ie: smash your useable laptop so we can recycle it)
the media talks about the outer circle.. the inner circle is pretty likely to be local, face to face (ie: ben)
we’ve lost our repair muscles.. so we’ve started restart parties…
now i decide when i dispose of my phone
what if you could find ben every time you needed him..
the inner circle – the repair – is the person to person power
