PREFABRICATED TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES IN OBSOLETE MECHANICS
She looked around the room for a place to plug in and press play/ bemused to find only a single method. She picked up the technological looking device and fingered a few buttons. A full colour digital display blinked on. The morphing display screen deciphered itself into a language she could almost actually read. ***Nambu Curriculum Organization for the Advancement of Non-Digital Sound*** scrolled across the screen. Tiager breathed a sigh of relief/ finally a way to listen. Finding no joy through wireless connection she fumbled with a few other buttons on the machine ~ looking for a way to insert her arovane music chip. A draw shuffled itself out of the sleek lines of the machine. Tiager looked on in horror. This was a tape player. She looked at the little cogs ticking around inside the machine amazed that such obsolete technology could still function. What was more shocking was that the machine appeared to be brand new…the cogs were shining in metallic gleam not yet ravished by micromechaic nanobugs that ate through old mechanics. The facade alluded to ultra postmodernism in a fashion that could only be from this century.
Struggling with the concept Tiager reverted to a method she had picked up on the internet ~ a hackers guide to hot-wiring the past. Sliding her nail along her microchip she exposed just a fragment of the microchip's interior spine. The miniscule piece of arovane clambered onto an unused tape/ it looked helplessly up at her from the machine. It was a huge sacrifice, to let that piece be lost into a medium that would slowly self distruct in time, but one she was willing to make given her need.
