Do The Green Thing: The Styrobot

Posted by andyh on 05 January 2009 | View all posts | Previous | Next

Brilliant and prolific technology writer/thinker and digital culture expert Kevin Kelly was wondering what to do with all the packaging styrofoam he'd accumulated over the years from the many bits of computer kit he'd bought.

The answer was obvious - get the foam cutters out and turn junk into art by making this magnificent 6 foot high Recycled/Reborn Styrobot.

Stunning.
