Early evidence of Dinosaur computing?

No, not really. Sorry. Pictured above is a piece by sculptor Peter McFarlane, who works largely with electrical/industrial components, much like Leonard Ulian, whose work I posted about last week. However, where Ulian uses electrical components for more abstract designs like mandalas, McFarlane has earthier ideas, like the "Circuit Board Fossil" pictured above.
