Nathaniel Stern writes, “The World After Us: Imaging techno-aesthetic futures (Flickr set)
is an art exhibition that asks, ‘What will — and what can — happen to
our gadgets over geological time?’ For the last few years, I have been
working scientists to artificially age phones and computers in different
ways, growing plants and fungi in watches, phones, laptops, and more,
and turning phones into ink (via blenders and oils), iMacs into tools
(melting down the aluminum, and shaping it into a wrench, hammer, and
screwdriver), and otherwise spiking electronic waste onto 12 foot towers
and/or ‘growing’ them (intermingled with botanicals) across 1000 square
feet of wall space. Here I want people to think and act differently in
and with their media devices, their electronic waste, and the damage it
does to create both in the first place.”
I happened upon these cute TNG tops while visiting an island in Animal Crossing today! She has engineering and science if you look up her creator code! 😍😍
