I Turned Electronic Waste Into Tiny And Biggie Robots (Part 3)

ADVERTISEMENT

TinyRobots are one-of-a-kind creatures made completely out of recycled materials: discarded electronics, computer parts, monitors, MP3s, keyboards, mouses and many others.

Device upgrades are becoming more and more frequent for many of us. Unfortunately, too many people give virtually no thought to what becomes of all those discarded gadgets, and neither are most device manufacturers.

I try to keep electronic waste out of the environment by making these up-cycled characters, assembling the components and transform them into something more than just scrap.

Each TinyRobot is fully encased in resin, easy to carry around with you! Biggie Robots are aswelle encased as stationary resin blocks, as decoration!

They even come with a certificate of adoption! Robots are people too!

Each tinyRobot comes alive from a stack of a large variety of electronic components and not only. The second step of the process is the resin pouring. The resin is being prepared and then poured in silicon molds along the robots, which then hardens. I hand sand each piece through multiple grades of sandpaper and polish to create a smooth, soft and shiny finish. Afterwards, each piece is taken through another process of hardening . Whole process can take up to a month.
