Reuseum Educational has made its debut and things are working out quite well for our fledgling foundation. Some fine donations have made it beyond the recycling bin, however, and you will notice items in the Reuseum with green tags labeled ‘Re’, the proceeds from which will go directly towards funding the low to no cost workshops for schools, libraries, and general public that we frequently facilitate. We are very excited to show you what comes about when you recycle, and thanks to your consistent and generous support, we’ve been able to make some achievements that have always been milestones for us to make come true. So when you see that pile of tech that’s not being used, or just seems to take up space you would love to reclaim, please don’t hesitate to drop it off with us. We’ll not only make sure it never sees the landfill, but we’ll see it put to use for educating our community as to the myriad uses things might have before they are remade into raw goods.
I’m sure that in some way, all of these devices could be connected together productively, and an adventuring soul could take a stab at it and see what comes of it with our full blessing. I’m also positive that we’ve got the other half of its necessity to become functional tucked somewhere in our ever growing inventory. Do you have a mystery machine to build? You might want to come by and see what we’ve got.
I’m increasingly thinking about filming a small time sci-fi show in the Reuseum. Yeah, I know everything in here has a practical use, but it all just looks so cool too. I’m thinking the plot could be something like, oh, maybe interstellar junk traders who get caught up in great adventures … well I’ll work on it.
With the addition of these new goods, we have most likely collected quite the comprehensive array of obsolete copmuting. Things like our NeXt computers, Galileo Mission Celestial Data Monitor (yeah, no joke) and the Osborne 1 we have on display are enough to compel any geek into an awed stupor… right before the conversation starts again covering what these systems used to do and how much they cost new of course. Be warned that these items are by no means the full list of relics that adorn our shelves every day. Come by and check us out!
As always, our new load of goodies has brought in some very charming items, some of which might actually fit under the Christmas tree. As for the rest, well, we can figure out a way to wrap our spare fire hoses into bows or something. We’ll figure it out.
