“(T)he database work has provoked some deeper questions
_about how we think about the salvage we inherit
_about when/whether/how to modify each piece
_which salvaged objects should be left in peace, left whole
with other salvaged objects deferring to it, by changing their own geometry
_which salvaged objects deserve a starring role
taking geometric precedence over their neighbors”
MATERIAL REUSE
“Is Digital useful to Reuse? On a scale from Abacus to AI, what level of Digital is useful for the creation of a single, bespoke object, made of heterogenous pieces of salvage?”
SALVAGE DATABASE
The dismantled pieces were labeled and were carried to the abandoned school gym next door. This space serves as storage, exhibit and workshop where material can be reused.
A digital-twin database categorizes the parts into several factors, including size, weight,
type and origin.
