Feral Trade Café guest artists Polytechnic present The Shredder; inviting you to bring in old computer manuals to be shredded into useful organic matter. A recycling project with a difference, the resulting paper is then mixed with coffee grounds to create a compost to cultivate café ingredients.
The Shredder is produced by Polytechnic, based on an original concept by Julian Priest, David Merritt and Adam Hyde.
