# DON'T BE TRASHY – RECYCLE

By [DRAUP](https://paragraph.com/@draup) · 2024-01-15

It’s January, the month of new resolutions, meaning it’s time for you to _clean up your act._

Tidy your room, Marie Kondo your closet, and de clutter your desktop with DRAUP’s newest project — [**_RECYCLE_**](https://www.draup.xyz/recycle).

Screenshots of those embarrassing texts, pay-walled articles, and e-comm wish lists aren’t serving you **or** your hard drive. So why not put them to good use?

**INTRODUCING RECYCLE**
-----------------------

For the final piece in our [_REDUCE_](https://www.draup.xyz/reduce)_,_ [_REUSE_](https://www.draup.xyz/reuse)_,_ [_RECYCLE_](https://www.draup.xyz/recycle) series, DRAUP wants _YOU_ to be our collaborating artist.

For the next 5 days, DRAUP’s **Digital Trash Collection Service™** will be put to work collecting all your desktop debris.

Then, at the end of the week, we will RECYCLE whatever you’ve thrown out into a TRASH GOWN—a piece of collectively created digital couture.

If rubbish reincarnation isn’t enough, each person who RECYCLEs will receive a limited edition TRASH GOWN, which can be **_owned_** _and_ **_worn_**.

**HOW TO RECYCLE**

**PLEASE NOTE:**

The trash will be collected on **_January 19th at 11:59 AM ET_,** after which no further items can be thrown in the TRASH.  
  
The TRASH GOWN will be produced roughly _1 week_ after the TRASH CAN closes.
