eatio

At eatio.org we will celebrate collections and collectors. We will discuss our emotional attachment to the objects we own. We will exchange and disseminate ideas, projects and objects. The acrostic ‘emotional attachment to inanimate objects’ was created by Jonathan of mymoneyblog.com. He has an amusing blog on the subject here

Category 1: Collecting Will showcase interesting collections, private and public, and the people behind them. You can show your collection of china milkmaids/Eiffel tower models/ etcetera here, remaining anonymous if you prefer.

Category 2: Uncollecting The term ‘uncollecting’ is attributed to Will Wright, creator of SimCity: ‘I’m uncollecting. I buy collections on ebay, and I disperse them out to people again. I have to be like an entropic force to collectors, otherwise all of this stuff will get sorted.’’ See his personal interests here.  This page will be about things we can do with our treasured possessions, other than simply hang on to them grimly.
