What we learn?
There's a unique party scene there, called Glassphemy, we'll discuss about this.
What is it?
Measuring 20 feet high and 30 feet long, people armed with glass bottles collected from local bars stand on one side of the structure, ready to hurl them at the awaiting group, who stand behind bullet-proof glass on the other end.
A colossal container made from bullet-proof glass, Glassphemy withstands some serious blows as people throw bottles from the platform above in an effort to rethink and revive the act of recycling. Created by Macro Sea, the installation serves as both stress reliever and glass recycling centre, because "smashing shit is fun."

Why? Glassphemy background
Recycling has gotten so damn boring. You separate your so-called “recyclables” in a bin, someone takes them away, and—to your knowledge, anyway—that’s the end of the story. Macro-Sea wanted to build something that challenges the lackluster status of green living. Meet GLASSPHEMY!: The 20-foot high, 30-foot long steel tower that has been specifically designed for participants to hurl glass bottles at friends, enemies, and loved ones who are safely shielded behind bulletproof glass. This visceral and psychological recycling center celebrates the illicit thrill of breaking bottles while working through deep-rooted emotional issues. The shattered debris collected in the chamber is then reused to make lights and other cool stuff, prolonging the life of the bottles that once held your brew.
The idea for a structure that facilitates smashing bottles in a fit of eco-aggression was born at an Infill Philadelphia conference, where the Community Design Collaborative brought together innovative minds to reconsider under-utilized urban spaces. When discussing the problem of a particular lot strewn with broken glass, one woman, Bethany Edwards, suggested a unique solution: Why not just create a place to break glass? Macro-Sea ran with Edward’s idea. Visualization from Vamos Architects helped Macro-Sea develop a structure that would be a safe haven to shatter empty bottles and began constructing the design for GLASSPHEMY! in February 2010.
