HIGH TECH ARTE BASURA

SEATTLE summer 2000

Returning to Seattle after a six month absence I found many changes: all the new buildings and construction frenzy, the seemingly boundless new prosperity and particularly the frantic spending spree Seattle is reveling in.
Such affluence of riches must generate an interesting affluence of waste. I started rummaging around to see what "Seattle Basura" woudl be...Compared to Mexico where old parts and bits and pieces of radio, television and car are saved and sold to repair and rebuild, finding quasi new computers and other electronic equipment thrown away ...was Basura beyond my wildest dreams: "high tech basura"!
