Summary:

"Immutable: Designing History explores the banal genre of the document and its entanglement with statecraft and colonialism. This is framed as a roughly 5,000 year chronology, imbricating the developments of money and writing from Mesopotamian clay tablets to distributed digital ledgers like the blockchain. Immutability figures as a design imperative and hermeneutic for considering a variety of techniques (material, technological, and administrative) of securitization against the entropy of a document's movement through space and time, and the political contingencies of its era."-- provided by distributor.
