It's just concrete. As is. Usually it'd be paving stones or tarmac, which are less susceptible to wear and cracking. They clearly didn't want to waste the time getting the same materials, so they just did a quick fill with concrete. Our infrastructure is fine. Many historic buildings have been around for several centuries and still look perfect, save for some soot. In Edinburgh, you can buy houses that've existed longer than America. They still make their apartment blocks the same way now as they did then. The city loves it's sandstone aesthetic.

I know I'd probably find it weird if anyone other than another programmer suddenly brought up my contributions to various open source projects. Just don't expect most people to ever so much as glance at the contributor lists or commit logs closely enough to see that as most people fall into the caring about the work for what it is category, those who care about the details of the work and the people behind it are typically those who see themselves being among them one day and take personal inspiration from others who are where they want to be.

That was great. There's always some local legend. Amazing the keyboard still exists. Even more amazing someone with an art degree is a success!

I found audio cassettes and even a circa 1989 Game Boy cartridge in the ground behind my house. The cartridge worked 20 years later! I still have it somewhere.

i swear when i was a kid i remember keyboards sometimes had a plastic cover that could go over it, probably to stop dust or something. Anyway, i remember it being a hard transparent plastic that was moulded to the shape of the keys. It would make the perfect mould to push into wet concrete.

Not that anyone really cares but it looks like the mold was made from an IBM Model F / XT PC keyboard... those were build in the early 80ties, so her saying it looked quite old and dated a good 20 years later is somewhat of an understatement. :)

It was called the Norfolk institute of art and design BTW. I went there in 1992-93 . I did go on to make video game art and directed in game sequences in other AAA titles as they also started me off in film studies. Thank you Norwich x

The next time the city re does that sidewalk they should team up with Molly and recreate the keyboard fossil with a modern one. They should just do it in the middle of the night too, no press release, just do it lol. That would be awesome.
