# Computer Creatures Recycled Sculptures by Brenda Guyton By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-10-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/found-tech-sculptures-brenda-guytons-wacky-computer-creatures References: [brendaguyton](http://www.brendaguyton.com/sculpture.htm) I love it when an artist can take a bunch of garbage and turn it into art. Brenda Guyton created some strange creatures out of crap she found, but for the most part her creations are made of pieces from computers and other assorted [electronic gizmos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pape). Guyton likes to make [animal forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fibredog), but also shows abstracts in her collection. She is the [ultimate recycler](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nytt-lys-collection), as are artists who do work like her. **Implications** - Her creations are a techie's delight; some are adorable animals and some resemble E.T., being very alien-esque. This is your excuse not to take out the recycling anymore, create your own computer creatures. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 74% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/graffiti) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Recycled Art:** Brenda Guyton's Computer Creatures showcase the potential for creating recycled art from electronic waste. - **Techie Art:** Brenda Guyton's Computer Creatures highlight the trend of creating art from technology. - **Eco-friendly Sculptures:** Brenda Guyton's Computer Creatures exemplify the trend of creating sculptures from recycled materials. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Culture:** Artists, including Brenda Guyton, are finding new ways of creating art by exploring the possibilities of using recycled materials. - **Technology:** Companies can explore the potential of recycled technology parts to create art and sculptures, as demonstrated by Brenda Guyton. - **Waste Management and Recycling:** The trend towards using electronic waste to create art, as demonstrated by Brenda Guyton's Computer Creatures, is creating new markets for waste management and recycling companies. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Repurposed Vintage Apple Computers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/repurposed-vintage-apple-computers.md) - [Abandoned Bikes-Turned Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/objects-from-frames.md) - [Otherworldly Wooden Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-sculptures-1.md) - [Resin Hardware Revivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-hardware.md) - [Recycled Collectible Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recyclings.md) - [Crystal-Adorned Crushed Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sam-keller.md) - [Almost-Extinct Animal Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fauna-series.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Recycled Waste Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gomi.md)
