In preparation for their "Excess" project on June 15, 2013, artists Ricardo Miranda and Brooke Singer conducted a survey of restaurants in downtown Stamford to learn more about the food waste landscape. This information was then used to created colorful posters with facts about Stamford's food circulation and were displayed, along with their composting bicycle, in a downtown storefront window. During Stamford’s art walk on June 15, the artist team cycled around downtown Stamford on the bicycle, collecting waste from businesses, redistributing edible portions at a free public picnic at Franklin Street Works, and composting the remainder.
