Hermes was my MacBook and I loved him dearly.
‘He’ got old not working well, so ‘he’ was replaced by another one - Mercury - in 2014.
For more than a year, I kept Hermes on my table and didn’t want to give him away to a recycle center.
Then, it came a time when I finally decided.
I opened him, I disassembled him to reuse his parts in my art.
And I was awed when I looked inside.
I saw the mechanical beauty of an Apple city, with blue motherboards, gates, wires and steel placeholders.

So here are some of the images:

In this photo the battery is already out, and the DVD drive (at left) is still covered
The power button is at the bottom right, like a black eye.
The wires connect the power button to the mouse pad area and
the mother board is Prussian blue

The DVD drive is uncovered, showing a beautiful and delicate mechanism

The keyboard is with a black cover and the wires are sealed and connected.
The power bottom is at the bottom left.

Keyboard totally sealed, impossible to open without damaging the part... a piece of Art itself.
