Megélhetési kukázás Budapesten
A Guide the Diver projekt kukázó emberek számára keres hasznos tárgyi megoldásokat. A kukabúvár életmód kapcsolódik az újrahasznosításhoz, a jogilag éppen szürke zónában működő ételosztáshoz, a rászorulóknak segítő gerillamozgalmakhoz, a pénzt elutasító freeganok életformájához. Hogyan segít egy kukára szerelhető, üveggyűjtő gyűrű? Hogy hívják az egyébként kidobott alkoholba hígítót keverő polgárokat? Mennyi még használható élelmiszert dobunk ki? TOVÁBB A HVG-re... |

FOOD NOT BOMBS BUDAPEST
Food Not Bombs is a global movement, which is completely independent from religions and party politics. It was founded in the 1980’s by American peace activists. We share hot, free, vegetarian meals to those in need, while peacefully demonstrating against poverty, homelessness and overproduction. We want to raise awareness to the world’s nutrition problems. All in all, with our actions, we want to draw attention to the fact, that this system is nowhere near good. We experience this, day by day; seeing homeless people in the subways or in other situations in extreme poverty. More... |

GUIDE THE DIVER!
Design for Dumpster Dialogue Dumpster Diving - volume and motivations are different in each city. While in Vienna it is more likely to be food rescue and a statement of anticonsumerism, in Budapest it is a matter of survival. Budapest dumpster divers look for useful waste every day, mostly in residential bins. Dumpster diving creates conflicts: even the idea of criminalizing it emerged in 2012 while the number of people living in deep poverty rises. Our interactive exhibition explores the question: how could we link the accessibility of thrown away but still useful waste with the mitigation of the social conflict related to dumpster diving and easing the lives of those deprived? Together we are looking for smart solutions that make throwaway food and useful, marketable objects generated in homes and retail easily accessible. Guide the Diver! project of Kulturgorilla seeks smart solutions in cooperation with Hungarian designers, in which the thrown-out but edible food, usable, redeemable things are becoming easily accessible. The goal is to create a simple sign system, garbage packing objects and educational material for the households, to step closer to an urban environment, which considers the less fortunate, too. The toolkit, being created with the instruments of collaborative design can develop the dialog between social groups isolated and far from each other. The exhibition shows the ideas, objects, and concepts during the design thinking process. |
