On the Birth of Machines

Arts & Craft

Someone
in 3500 BC
Mesopotamia

was inspired
to invent a better way
to throw a pot

Before that
for 14,000 years
pottery was made

entirely by hands
pinching, coiling
& slabbing the clay

The potter’s wheel
was mankind’s first
rotating wheel

Afterwards
things moved along
much quicker
