Photography & Video

Every so often I come across a project or a maker that stops me in my tracks and fills me wonder and a reaffirmation of the power of making. Landfill Harmonic is one such project. The soon-to-be released documentary tells the story of the people of Cateura, Paraguay, a barrio built on a landfill where residents pick through trash to eke out a living recycling and selling trash. But a local youth orchestra also make beautiful music from instruments made from garbage. If the trailer is any indication, the film looks fantastic.
