If you said a similar thing you could be misundertood, as if you did a hard criticism to the contemporary theatre, but a phrase as this one is only a representation of an original idea, that people could copy in the world of the ecosostenible building. The message is simple and direct: today nothing must be thrown away. Just nothing.
And you can see that in London two artists, Martin Kaltwasser and his wife Folke Köbberling, buildt the Jellyfish Theatre (25, Union Street), the first theater exclusively drawn by recycled refusals. It doesn't concern only some axles of recovered wood or some recycled plastic lamps: the building, whose life will extend for alone two months, has been thought and planned by the two exponents of the junkitechture (or the art to build with the refusals) as a real assemblage of refusals of every kind. Old theatrical scenographies, cloths, cassettes of the market, kitchens and living rooms recovered by the dumps, discards of building yards, bottles and cans: all is revealed fundamental to reach the objective of the project, or rather to build a grandiose theater where two shows will be entertained, devoted to the climatic changes of our planet, Oikos of Simon Wu and Protozoa of Kay Adshead. Inaugurated toward the end of August, the theater will again be demolished in October and the materials reused.
«Simply we give value to the things that, according to the greatest part of the people,don't have it more - the artists explain - Our trial reverses the normal iters of the economy, the materials making functional that they could seem unusable. It’s sure: the safety norms will rigidly respected and technology will be advanced. Our theater, in fact, will have an innovative system of cells to combustible to produce the necessary quantity of energy and it will exploit a sophisticated system of illumination able to exploit at the most the natural light of the day. We can entertain up to 120 people: think to the great message! You are in a theatre of things that you coul have thorwn away!».
The idea of creating a bond between housebuilding and eco-projects is spreading by now in Europe: from the hotels that try to produce energy with the cyclettes to the eco-campings, new projects and new ideas are being developed for making to grow the sensibility of the population
about environmental problems. The projects of real construction with recycled material therefore are only one of the solutions. Among the occasions to reflect on the matter, there’s the BetOnGreen Hotel in Rome, the first Italian convention devoted to the sustainable management of the receptive structures, to compete with energy and to aim at the green. The next appointment will be October 19, with a new event devoted to the enterprises, to the technological solutions and the good practices used for making the more efficient receptive structures from the energetic point of view, more sustainable and, therefore, mostly competitive on the market.
