Transcript for the Piece Audio version of Dumpster Diving & Scrounging

Intro:

"In today's world of rampant consumerism, vast amounts of food, clothing, and other material goods are thrown away every day. Dumpster diving, or scrounging, is a unique reaction to consumer culture. The daily process of reappropriating goods from the trash provides a means of subsistence, as well as an ideological resistance to consumer capitalism. In this audio collage, Sean McMahon examines the mental environment of dumpster divers and scroungers."

A mix without a prerecorded intro and outro is also available
