De Compodcast
There are many prejudices around composttoilets. With this project I wanted to explore them by giving bystanders an intimate experience in which they could share them in a playfull way. I build an open compost toilet structure and invited people to take place inside. Here they recieve a microphone and headphone which is connected to my own microphone and headphone. We then start our tour around the city while I ask to question them about compost toilets. “How do you experience the concept of a compost toilet? Can you envision the death of the flushing toilet? What would encourage you to use one? What is your first memory using one?” I explore their insights on this topic, encouraging them to relieve themselves of their prejudices and leave the toilet booth with some new knowledge of this amazing, yet simple household structure.
