Empty Site #3: Bin
A smaller version of what is a commonly seen empty site - the bin.
The bin as a site relies on it's ephemeral emptiness, completing a cycle from empty to full periodically. Is a bin still a bin when it's empty, or only when it is storing rubbish? Could it still be considered a bin if it were filled with something other than rubbish?
Scale and placement, that is, the bin's location and size, can be viewed as directly relative to the bin's emptiness or 'fullness'. Does an empty bin mean a clean household, a lack of desire to dispose of 'rubbish', or even a strong recycling initiative? Does a larger bin mean a larger yield of rubbish, or over-compensation or an inaccurate prediction of rubbish output?
