“Nothing will be wasted” Upcycling Music Exhibition

The idea of waste material made instruments is from a Cantonese song named “Upcycling Hero” -《香港傑出廢青》composed by singer-songwriter, Michael Lai Hiu-Yeung (黎曉陽) . The song raises the question of “What is “waste”?” Teaming up with upcycle designer Kevin Cheung Wai-Chun (張瑋晉), the singer and the designer together with the music production crew went to pick the “familiar” and “useful” “waste” materials and converted them into special music instruments using their creative minds and professional knowledge in music and design respectively. The recording of the song using sounds of these instruments was made. This upcycling concept reconstructs the perception of “waste”, breaks down boundaries and realizes possibilities which may not have been possible in the eyes of “useful” people.
