Edward Burtynsky, “The 10,000-year Gallery”
This is a talk by a photographer about putting a gallery of images into the chamber that will house the Clock Of The Long Now, a mechanical clock intended to keep time for 10,000 years. Thinking about how to make pictures last for 10k years turns the process into a very interesting engineering challenge. As with most everything associated with the Long Now, and especially their seminars, this is very thought provoking stuff.
