i think they call that garbage.
No garbage has to be able to rot you'r thinking of trash.
little bits of torn up pieces of plastic baggies, cummon think....
jim and mb have some on their wall that they call art but im skeptical. personally i cant recall reading what you are talking about. something to do with hanging chads, im guessing. interesting distinction between garbage and trash. id never considered them as different. whereas garbage is the refuse from animal and vegetable matter from a kitchen or market, some trash may rot as well, as its original use was to describe the refuse from plant trimmings, leaves, and twigs, before it took on more universal waste properties. garbage, i would contend, has also moved beyond the bounds of offalness to embody the panoply of litterary genres.
trashy novels, po-white-trash, flotsam and jetsam, little torn up pieces of......
funny thing is, while i was watching (briefly) the martha stewart xmas show, she used shredded up clear plastic baggies as sort of ornamental snow for her doodads, and i was waiting for her to serendipitously mention the "official" name of said shwag but it failed to materialize. if anyone would know it would be martha. maybe theres an "ask martha" section on her website.
DF'S : METHED UP (A Madness called Meth) 11/16/00
It has been about 30 minutes since the team burst in. In the back bedroom, senior probation officer Michael
Brooks is digging through the garbage. He finds a dozen or more tiny pieces of thin plastic, twisted and torn, but
empty. Nearby is a box of unused sandwich baggies.
Brooks thinks the shreds of baggies, or "bindles," indicate a dealer. But he can't find the dope or any money.Terri's got a fresh $20 bill in her wallet; Paul has three crisp twenties in his. But that's all the money in the apartment. Brooks keeps digging. On the other side of the room, senior probation officer Steve McKee digs
through a pile of Terri's clothing. Gould returns from her car where she has grabbed a Valtox chemical kit to test the drugs. Officers want to make sure what they suspect is meth is, in fact, the drug. She sets the kit up in the bathroom, balancing it on a strip of counter amid Terri's lotions and makeup.

It seems that baggies are bindles, torn up bindles and torn up baggies are trash or garbage, you decide. Any luck with that opium lantern?
The seven sisters project is on the back burner. But still on the cooker.
