THE MEMORY MATERIAL
The Cloud is a very material phenomenon. Despite the media marketing which may visualise it contrary to this, The Cloud is a rich source of a varied collection of the earth’s natural minerals and resources. An advanced cocktail of rare elements, utilising their unique properties for the functionality of a complex string of technology. Up to sixty minerals are required in the construction of a processor. The processor being a just one part of an important chain of engineered materials which include touch screen displays, photoelectric sensors, fibre optic cables, transmitters and all the infrastructure which makes up the antennae, satellites, cables, data centres, routers, servers and computers. These objects and structures are located all over the world, are networked and in constant communication with each other.
