We heard last week that some “Long Now Graffiti” showed up on the sidewalk out in front of the Pixar animation studios in Emeryville California.  A friend just sent in pictures of it…  I assume no one wants to come forward to tell us more about it, but I would really love to know why it only goes to the year 10,000.  Why not 12011?


… and this one in Berlin:

    This is an elegant graphic representation of long time as distance which we can experience by walking along. The dates have been spaced out in logarithmic scale.

    looks like they're taking a page from antenna theatre's book: using the tines of a rake to mark out 13 billion years of the universe (it went about a half mile or more). They marked the millennium as a grain of rice. Sands of Time at http://www.antenna-theater.org…

    The Ohlone Greenway installation has images, too…
