Abstract

An international group of artists, cultural theorists and scientists will follow a practice-based approach to explore the materiality of obsolete and discarded electronic devices in a series of workshops, symposiums and exhibitions in Hong Kong, Lagos, Nigeria, and London, UK. Central to the workshops in Nigeria and China will be a series of practice-based explorations of e-waste recycling labour.
