    The Batteries of Life

    Christopher Assendorf

    2007-03-24

    A look at early technology and the changes coming from it through the history of art and literature. Stuff that turned my head enough for me to get up and put it into the computer:

    “Advertisement on the Firmament” 101

    the clock… a compensation for the failure of our activities to follow each other any longer in a natural way. Musil, 140

    The Metropolis and Mental Life

    Paul Valéry, “The Conquest of Ubiquity” 176
