Very interesting links, Jon. I especially like the nate harrison link: this guy has done some deep thinking about technology and art. In fact, he is reminding us that all art parasitises available technologies. For example, tools for scratching shapes and symbols onto bone or stone originally has other uses: their capacity for making marks is a side effect of their primary function, which was to cut into meat, etc, or to shape other materials. Cave paintings show that the urge to make pictures is very, very old, but it's not clear whether the dis covery that charred sticks could make marks was first used for purposes other than making pictures on cave walls. I suspect so: I suspect that people drewmarks oln faces first. But of course, I have no proof.
