Shredding the Days Away

Posted on 25 April 2007 by Techie Diva


Susanna Heinrich created the Charon_shredder as part of a set of fictional tools for those who have embraced hibernation as a common practice and efficient method to delay aging.

"The Charon_Shredder is a device that makes past time tangible. It is a hybrid between calendar, clock and waste producing automaton. It has no on/off-button, thus it is unstoppable, just like time. It features the 365 days of the year represented on a paper-roll. The paper-roll is led through a hacked paper-shredder, which is programmed to use exactly 24 hours to shred one "day".Calshredder

    I love it!! It would be neat to watch the days shred away and the pile get bigger when say your husband is deployed or something. Very cool.
