Artist and environmental activist Oliver Bishop-Young’s project “Skip Conversions” tried to find creative and often amusing ways of recycling unwanted products. One example was a dumpster, which he turned into a swimming pool, a skateboard ramp, a living room, a garden, and a campsite. More pictures at the link.

Don’t these people have anything better to do with their time? Talk about a Hoosier swimming pool!

I don’t get it.
Since when is a dumpster an unwanted product. All these dumpsters look like they are i good condition. I bet they are pretty expensive, and anyway the uses the “artist” has invented are not very innovative or in anyway practical.
Are we supposed to be amazed that this guy has found out that gravity does keep liquids in cups. we’ll just have to wait for his next project where he finds uses for unwanted holes. Like you can put sand or water in it. Or a chair.
Brilliant!

I always use the dumpcart two times,though it’s very cheaply for me, I had make this habit.

In many parts of the world, those smaller dumpsters are known as “skips”. So the name “Skip Conversion” is exactly what it means.

So that’s what they call dumpster diving. Looks dangerous – or is that shallow of me?
I can honestly say I’ve never seen anyone throwing out a dumpster.

“‘Skip Conversions’ tried to find creative and often amusing ways of recycling unwanted products. One example was a dumpster …”
Nope, they just converted skips, which “A Noun” has already explained are garbage receptacles, commonly known to many as dumpsters.
