Recycled Blue Jean Insulation



An interesting effect of the popularity of blue jeans across the world is a supply of blue cotton waste after they are thrown away. This is valuable fiber that can be used as in-wall insulation. Further exploring the philosophical implications of this, the house begins to form itself from re-used parts of anthropogenic artifacts which itself is a much more natural process than the virgin manufacture of materials. Many animals such as hermit crabs and nest building birds also use materials around them to construct natural buildings.
