Alicia MUST watch the videos from the Basel Action Network (www.ban.org) 
on the overseas trade in scrap electronics, which continues aforce. She 
can contact Jim Puckett there at apex@no.address or Sarah Westervelt at 
swestervelt@no.address

Alicia, there is a dark side to this story (afterlife of machines) which 
will be fascinating for you to explore for the audience.

There are many small companies worldwide and in the US doing art w/ 
leftover e-scrap.

My favorite: http://www.seccoshop.com/ -really creative Finnish company 
doing fun things w/ trash & e-scrap.
