After reading, it seems that the “drink pee” slogan is a little misleading, or at least it was to me. My first thought was that they found a way to “recycle” urine so that it was drinkable. I was thinking of something like a UrineBrita™, but it is really a display showcasing how we are part of a closed loop. The urine that gets flushed down the toilet comes back to us eventually.
I think that’s kind of a no brainer. I remember thinking in 8th grade science that the “fresh” water we drink had at some point been the waste of dinosaurs, jesus, george washington, and anyone else who was able to take a leak. I kept that little tidbit to myself but now Eyebeam is displaying this wonderful idea for all to see at the Feedback Exhibit March 13 - April 19, 2008 in New York City.
As for the DIY kit, it’s for turning your urine into a hydroponic environment to grow your “greens”. <insert joke here>.
