Since I seem to be on a blogging roll . . . (MAKING A MUSEUM: Materializing Regimes of Value with the NYC Department of Sanitation)

This blog is an integral part of the Making a Museum course. All students are expected to use it actively by both posting entries and reading peer postings regularly. The blog is designed as an organic forum that will change and adapt to the needs of the course as the semester unfolds. The categories allow users to organize their postings in parallel to the assignments and readings for the class. Please look at the category descriptions to know where to locate postings. All postings are also available in chronological order in the blog's archive.

Since I seem to be on a blogging roll . . .

On a positive recycling note, Seattle appears to be kicking butt. While I love General Waring's idea for the Sanitation Department to pay for itself by re-selling mongo, that's clearly not in the 5-year plan. But if cities like Seoul and Seattle can compost waste, why not New York City?

See the article below about recycling on the West Coast.
