Vinyls, the recycling that has a completely different music

How to recycle your old vinyls in a creative way to keep them alive in new, surprising guises;

He is about to end up run over, his mother saves him

Hot. Physicist. The analog microgroove it returns a color and an acoustic quality that, in over a century of innovations, still seem unmatched. And when also, by inevitable fate, our beloved vinyl it is excluded by the sound of jumps and screeching scratches from that shrewd, ritual embrace between needle and turntable, and rendered mute, it remains however and unquestionably an aesthetic object with a minimal as well as bewitching charm. How can we recover our worn out LP that has kept us company so much?

If you are looking for a use that goes beyondadorn white walls, you could then wink at the many creative ideas circulating on the web, operating a do-it-yourself recycling of vinyl records certainly more original and imaginative.

By having tools of common use up to those a little more specific you could, for example, let yourself be inspired by creations by Jeff Davis, American designer, who with the line Vinylux, sectioning, cutting, gluing, by reshaping old records he succeeds in obtaining original furnishing objects and refined accessories with a vintage flavor and, (based on the estimates reported on the site according to which with Vinylux in 4 years approximately two and a half tons of vinyl would have been recovered) absolutely eco-friendly.

If you didn't have hot molds o circular saws, clocks, coasters, photo frames, bowls, plates and centerpieces they are sold at very low costs (ranging from 18 to 26 dollars) and can be viewed on the website of Elsewares.

And it is always the soul of an old record clipboard-holder-cd instead presented by the site ArtGallery 18 at the price of 30 dollars: a fun and useful object that can be made at home in a few minutes with a knife, natural glue and cardboard.

Perhaps the most practical and experienced will like, with the help of a jigsaw, to try their hand at creating trendy pendants and jewelry like those presented by "Alarm Industries" on the site vlinvling at a price of around $ 25 or, if crochet is your forte, duplicate the decidedly original style of bags from the "Waste ... genetically modified" line Presentation of Carmen on the blog “Mani d'arte”.

If world famous artists (Radiohead, Madonna e Coldplay to quote the best known) choose to relaunch the analog by entrusting their recent works also to vinyl sensuality and if second hand markets are overflowing with LPs to the delight of old fans and new followers ready to swear that the record knows no sunset, well, then your choice is definitely made (forgive me for the term) trendy as well as "green". Despite being a recyclable material one hundred percent (shredded and then put back into shape), vinyl (pvc), in fact, to be disposed of, it requires, like all similar processes, a considerable waste of energy.

During their "musical" life they have moved you, fascinated at times moved, so let your old vinyls continue to do so under new, surprising guises; recycling in this intimate and creative way it will surely have a completely different flavor, sorry, another music.
