One
of
the
simplest
ways
of
reducing
our
footprint
in
the
material
world
,
especially
of
digital
hardware
,
is
not
to
produce
/
consume
any
new
products
,
and
rather
see
what
we
can
do
with
the
ones
we
already
have
:

How
much
computing
power
is
sleeping
away
on
the
shelves
?
<

How
much
can
we
still
achieve
with
hardware
from
yesteryear
?
<

How
useful
can
an
old
device
be
if
repurposed
?

Especially
in
the
field
of
computers
and
mobiles
,
the
development
is
staggering
:
hardware
devices
get
exponentially
more
powerful
,
and
the
software
gets
hungrier
and
hungrier
,
often
for
features
we
aren
'
t
even
aware
of
.
How
can
we
counteract
these
tendencies
with
artistic
means
?

re

use
-
an
old
car
may
stink
,
but
it
consumes
much
less
than
a
new
one
