I have class in a little bit so I can't wax philosophic about this little tidbit from the collective consciousness of the internet for too long. I was browsing my favorite technology site Gizmodo at around noon when I came across this installation piece from the artist Bruce Munro; he and 160 friends laid down over half a million CDs in Long Knoll Park in England to create this "sea" of discs.
It has personal significance to the artist, but anyone can appreciate the odd beauty of the scene, as these obsolete media fulfill one final purpose before they are sent to recycling.
Also, it's good to know where all those AOL CDs finally ended up, I suppose.
