Modern Fossils by Christopher Locke

We’ve all seen technology improving at a breakneck pace over the last couple of decades. While it’s nice to have fresh and shiny new gadgets that work better, we are discarding outdated electronics in alarming numbers.

These modern fossils are hand-made in Austin by artist Christopher Locke. Each one represents a different piece of "modern" technology that has already become extinct.

The artist has also collaborated with the local Goodwill computer and electronics recycling program, insuring that there is zero e-waste from this project.
