Untitled E-Waste Play charts the Silicon Valley’s electronics industry by plunging back into California’s timeline of extraction. Through the supernatural and the strange, missionaries, gold miners, farmers, and programmers all converge on one rhyming idea: “history” is forever speculative.

The sound is cloned from a bank of San Francisco Municipal Railway (MUNI) announcement audio and transferred onto a recording of the author reading the excerpted play text.
