| This project explicitly acknowledges aleatory contingencies for its resolution as it attempts the creation of what can be inexactly termed “a new crystallography”. A mix of minerals derived from computers including copper, iron ore, lead, magnesium, magnetite, silicon was prepared for embedding at various sites as part of [[http://www.psychogeophysics.org/wiki/doku.php?id=summit2011:description|The Suffolk Psychogeophysics Summit 2011]] in anticipation of both mundane and spectacular methods of harnessing colossal electrostatic discharges to create artifical fulgurites in a project called [[http://www.psychogeophysics.org/wiki/doku.php?id=summit2011:new_psychotronic_generators|new psychotronic generators]]. | This project explicitly acknowledges aleatory contingencies for its resolution as it attempts the creation of what can be inexactly termed “a new crystallography”.

| ''Mundane creation of artifical fulgurites. Using a bucket of sand (recovered from the nearby Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk, site of an infamous UFO incident in the 1980's) as the substrate, an embedded “trench” of the minerals derived from computers was made and lightly covered with the sand. One exposed end of a high voltage cable was loosely fixed to one end of the trench whilst another similar cable was attached to a piece of wood; both of the cables exited from a 9 kilowatt 25 milliamp neon light transformer. Once the current was switched on an arc was drawn across the mineral and sand trench by judiciously holding to the cable end attached to the wood and then drawing back from near the other fixed cable end in the trench. As a result small dark and fragile mixed “new crystal” fulgurites were formed'' | ''Mundane creation of artifical fulgurites.
