The disposability is one of the first conceptualizations I think of related to magazines. This is most likely due to the fact that it\u2019s not like a book where you can read and re-experience the story over again, it\u2019s information\/news. After you become aware of news, one can say that it\u2019s not something to re-read, so it no longer has a purpose. Secondly, there\u2019s resourceability because they can be repurposed in different unique methods. Just to name a few: jewelry, buttons, paper mache, and other crafty things. I think seeing the potential in items generally deemed disposable requires a different type of consciousness that I find interesting. Thirdly, hoardability comes to mind due to the large quantity of it amongst hoarders. Items in the paper family are easy to accumulate and often more accessible. It becomes tough considering that some hoarders feel guilty of throwing things out, so in their mind they\u2019re combatting wasteful practices. I think the disposable conceptualization makes the most sense as to why they\u2019re considered to be waste. As technology advances, so should access to media news services so there isn\u2019t this bearing amount of magazines in your home.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Something I chose to conceptualize waste are magazines, since there are multiple perspectives about it.
