What is it?
A publishing practice that publishes a clay tablet "newspaper". The distribution of said paper should be performed in a ritualistic manner promoting a speculative, archeological and fringe-scientific narrative.
Why make it?
To invite to reflection around media's permanence and media-consumption(social and political mainly(maybe?)), make people responsible for objects that will ideally remain for millennia, as well as inviting to reimagine or speculate around early recorded history.
Workflow
Somehow source material for the paper, probably by asking people about what they would like to share with a public 4000 years in the future. Pen plotting (or some other "efficient means" of "mass"-producing such newspaper).
Rapid prototypes
Asking Thijs: With the stone tablets, you already present a kind of 'alternative' history. You could lean into that by misrepresenting our times.
By making a very thin sheet of clay and sticking it to a piece of paper
the HP7475A was able to plot using a needle attachet to an old pen-plotter-pen
Worlds first ever pen plotted clay tablet
Previous practice
Publishing practices is already something Im exploring…
Relation to a wider context
An opposition to the extremely fast pace consumeristic approach to ICT's in the current big media-landscape.
Choices made
Using clay as an OG storage-midia
Using pen plotter as an obsolete media
Time is very much present in both of these
A public 4000 years in the future makes room for a lot of speculation
