On my way back from lunch near Clissold Park yesterday, I spotted this awesome shop front entirely made from old computer main boards, glistening and shimmering in the low autumn sun.
I couldn’t tell you if this was an environmentally sound way to make use of electrical waste, but it is surely displaying the fascinating beauty that the physical reality of computers hold, albeit normally hidden from view and at best covered in a layer of dust.
Close up of the shop front, they almost look like functional art
I’d love to see a few lonely LEDs glowing on them at night. “There’s still juice in the batteries, you CMOS options are not lost yet…”
