Atemporality : Turing machine

(from)

I used to congratulate myself on the fact that my generation was the first at my Uni, not to have to deal with punch-cards.

But… where there’s life, there’s art I guess. HP are about to launch a range of domestic 3D printers – and instead of thinking “woah” – the only thing that springs to mind is that maybe I should get one because in another 20 years, they’re going to be impossibly quaint, cool and useless artifacts from a bygone era.
