Trash Backwards Blog | Our Videos For a regular day job, one of us happens to be a filmmaker. So we tend to pull out the camera when we’re inspired to tell our story or the story of others having epiphanies when it comes to reducing, reusing, and rethinking our stuff. We follow plastics flowing from the world’s highest places to sea level, we glimpse into the lives of the people who find resources in what others throw away, and we document our own joy in teaching others about our collective stuff and how we can reduce it or reuse it in interesting ways. Learn from people all over the world in our videos, many of which are narrated by our children who live to tell these stories: High Mountains, Pure Water: Liesl’s family works and schools in Nepal.

About | How it works To explore is human. Somewhere along the way, we got stuck on the idea that an "explorer" is something rare and specific. We need to reboot that idea for the 21st century. The old models don't hold up in this day and age, as it's now about collaboration and connectedness. OpenExplorer is a digital field journal. You can begin by posting an expedition that you've been dreaming up (even if it's just exploring your backyard), or get started by following along and contributing to other adventures. This is a new way to explore, together. Here are a few examples of how OpenExplorer can be used: What qualifies as an expedition? Do I have to have an OpenROV to start an expedition? How much do I have to plan before I begin creating an expedition? If I contribute to an expedition, do I get any rewards or ownership? Is the contribution tax deductible? What are the fees?

Thing in a Jar Thing in a Jar 7 inches by 4 inches, mason jar Pictured above is the Thing in a Jar that's usually sitting in my office at work. The coolest thing about the Thing is that everyone responds to seeing it by asking questions. The Thing in a Jar is made out of Sculpey, acryllic paint and rubber cement. This is the third Thing in a Jar I've made. Here's a conceptual sketch I made of this Thing before I sculpted it. 1.5 by 2.5 inches, ballpoint pen Usually when I make a Thing in a Jar, I try to keep the shape ambiguous enough so that the viewer cannot really pin down exactly what they're looking at. The glass jar acts as a physical barrier, preventing the viewer from directly accessing its contents. I think this is much cooler than, for example, a painting, which basically has this big implicit sign hanging off of it that says, "I am just a painting of an object, not the object itself. Viewers of The Thing in a Jar do not have this preconception. Update OK here's what you do. That's it!
