Jason Bitner just seems to attract interesting trash. While working as a sorter at a Chicago recycling facility at the age of 16, he would regularly come across crumbled anonymous notes, torn grocery lists full of strange items and faded love letters, stuffing each into his pocket fro later perusal.
Back then, these brief glimpses into someone else's world were simply a way to pass the time. But eventually, Bitner's interest in the social significance of this material prompted the creation of Found magazine, an underground compilation of letters, notes, drawings and photos that have, either accidentally or deliberately been discarded.
VERY cool; check it out!
