 +
 +Imagining some kind of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioremediation|bio-remediation]] setup with computer PCB, earth and mycelium. Perhaps as part of the "earth computer": embedded measurement as device in the soil (writing _from_ the soil), use of electrolysis (a crystal garden), earthboot: booting a laptop directly from soil currents. Powering through earth battery mentioned below.
 +
 +At the same time literal translation of elements such as display (coil/mirror for telluric currents, or piezoelectrics and laser), memory (earth cores arrayed), CPU (point contact, earth doping).
 +
 +approaches: point contact (germanium, galena-lead sulfide), junction (cuprous oxide), FET/thin film (cadmium chloride)
