About
In Petrified Media, colourful microscope imagery is combined with the Atlas of Media Metallurgy, in which the images’ elementary composition is analysed, and captions provide background information on the origin of these indispensable metals used in the production of modern technological devices. Three essays by Siobhan Angus (Assistant Professor of Media Studies), Jan Zalasiewicz (Emeritus Professor of Paleobiology), and Cornford himself, reflect on the subject from each writer’s theoretical background.
