As the saying goes; "One man's trash is another's treasure." Thanks to a share on Facebook, I found out about this young prodigy named Kelvin Doe a.k.a. DJ Focus, from Sierra Leone, who caught the attention of Massachusetts Institute of Technology [M.I.T.] from his inventions, of what he completely taught himself to make. Hailing from the Dwozark Farm section of Freetown, Sierra Leone, one of the poor sections of the city, Kelvin would often go to the trash dump yards to find parts from broken electronics to help make his inventions. Listen to more of his story by watching the video below, courtesy of THNKR and TEDxTEENS.
