Abstract

We live in an electronic stone age. Stone is uncritically considered the technology of ancient humans, but it has never really left us. Silica, tantalum, aluminium and gold are all earth encoded with our contemporary electronic and digital logics. Stone is and has always been a means of keeping time, whether it be a digital clock or an anthropocenic contribution to the fossil record.
