Most, get only one before being discarded,

but we believe that if there was a way

to showcase their potential,

maybe people would think about

giving them a second chance.

Alright, here is the tour,

set number one, circuit boards,

set number two over there,

completely made out of keyboards,

and all the way over on this side we got,

set number three, laptops.

These sets were made from e-waste,

electronic waste given a second chance

at one of the largest facilities

of its kind in the United States.

There I learned that globally

while the rest ends up in landfills all over the world.

Given to people like Dell,

these old gadgets have the potential

to be recycled into brand new computer parts.

And it's more than just the expensive stuff

it's all the accessories that come with it

like mice, cables and adapters.

All we needed was to convince more people to recycle

so we decided to build something

people would hopefully want to talk about.

Entire worlds showcasing the past

powering the future.

We built our sets from scratch

using simple pieces of wood

lifted into position with the help of volunteers

that joined us from all over the country.

Together, we spent days

experimenting with different patterns

to see what would work and what didn't.

Piece by piece,

our structure slowly started coming to life

Just like a new laptop, born from recycled parts.

From there, all that remained

was to add the human component,

representing the everyday person

which is the most important part

of the recycling machine.

All the pieces we used in this project

were collected by Dell's global recycling program

which collects devices of any brand, make or model

to be reborn into new computer parts.

Although it may look like junk,

parts like these old circuit-boards can contain up to

Yet we're throwing away

these valuable pieces into landfills

instead of giving them a second chance.

We're just a small group of creatives

that came together hoping to make a difference.

But we believe that when companies collaborate

with the everyday person to create social impact,

that's when we can start to build a brighter future.
