We all have kipple. No matter how hard you try, no one can avoid it for long. You might be materialistic, a collector, a hoarder, you might even be minimalist, but the fight against kipple will never be won.

If you don't know what kipple is, then you have obviously have never read Philip K Dick's 1968 novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Kipple is the useless rubbish that humans collect and don't get rid of. Broken, non-functional, past its best. That's kipple.

Photographer, Dan Tobin Smith, has been inspired by Dick's kipple, and wants to fill an entire floor with the stuff. He will create an installation called The First Law of Kipple, which will be displayed at his studio for The London Design festival between the 13th - 21st September.

For that he needs your help. As much kipple as Smith has, it simply isn't enough, so is making a Call for Kipple , asking anyone to donate. You have until the 22nd August to send your kipple to:

Dan Tobin Smith Studio Ltd.
52c Whitmore Road
London
N1 5QG

Not sure if your kipple fits the bill? If you answer 'yes' to any of the following, then Smith wants it:


If you have been thinking about a clear out, here is a good reason to get started, as your kipple could end up on display as a piece of modern art.
