This project brings together art, engineering, and economics to investigate the impact of human manure composting.

On 2 November 2024 the Pootopia team will showcase a new toileting experience – THE TURDIS – an attractive, quick-assembly unit, servicing on-site events.

With THE TURDIS your poo and wee makes soil, not pollution!

THE TURDIS – choice of time-lords across the galaxy!

“I abhor chemical portaloos! Whenever I time-travel, I choose THE TURDIS” – Dr Poo.

The construction of THE TURDIS was supported by a grant from Culture Bank Wollongong.

The Pootopia project is funded by University of Wollongong’s Global Challenges program.

Graphic design for the TURDIS publicity material is by the John “Bristol Stool Chart” Causley.
