In our latest What the Fix podcast, Stacey Tenenbaum, director of the new documentary SCRAP, talks about why we need to think (hard) about what happens to our stuff when it dies.
Stacey Tenenbaum is a filmmaker who recently released her film SCRAP which “tells the story of people who each have a deep connection to objects that have reached their 'end of life.” Jack and Stacey chat about how we’ve come to our current culture of disposability and how having a deeper relationship with the things we own can keep waste out of landfills. As an artist herself, Stacey’s film spends time exploring the role that art plays in upcycling and restoring objects that would otherwise be seen as scrap.
