-Disc Jockey-
"San Francisco designer Ames Munden fabricates light-as-air mobiles by
recycling discarded lighting products. The hand-stained fiberglass discs, cut form
old lamp-shade material, are assembled with fishing line and salvaged lamp
hardware. The resulting
"Recycalites" about 3 feet long, glisten as they float."

-Gone Fishing-
"
Taking the mobile out of the baby's room, San Francisco sculptor Ames Munden
has transformed it into an adult-though still distinctly playful- pleasure. For her
"Recyclobile", she strings colorful discs of hand-stained fiberglass on fishing line
and suspends them from a steel ring." At Beeline, 3505 17th St. 415.505.2222

today's colors and technologies. In some cases, they're updating classic designs
too."
