Hello, this is a Scraplight!

Right now, this little pendant isn't much, but with a bit of greed and hedonism support from the community, it'll blossom into a real Chandelier!

This Scraplight is the physical manifestation of an ongoing Chandelier Project that celebrates everyday people and the work that they do.

Lately, the seemingly never-ending reminders of the potential threat of societal collapse has obscured the physical and mental work performed by individuals at the heart of the goods, services, and media we consume. Though digital technology is an inevitable and invaluable tool for growth, it is important to maintain our basic human connection. This begins with understanding and respecting the skilled labor performed within the various industries that move us as a species towards progress as the basic act of survival continually increases in complexity.

The goal of this project is to grow this sculpture into something grand to be enjoyed by everyone. With feedback as viewers (like you) interact and suggest industries, materials, and technologies to explore, corresponding elements will be added to this pendant. "Nodes" located at points of interest throughout the Scraplight will contain QR codes that will direct viewers to an online archive of interviews and information about the many, many unseen aspects of industries that help us all survive and thrive.

So, while you're here, let's start with you!

If you'd like to suggest an industry to explore or volunteer yourself, a family member, or friend to be contacted for an interview, or just want to keep up with the growth of this Chandelier Project, please briefly fill out the form below.
