i love shit like this bc i love stupid fake artifact shit like the voynich manuscript which is legitimately 500ish years old but written ina gibberish fake language and full of pictures of imaginary plants and animals. and scholars are like but WHYYYY WOULD SOMEONE PUT SO MUCHEFFORT INTO MAKING A WEIRD JOKE/HOAX and. well u can seepeople do all kinds of things in their spare time. and probably did 500 years agohowever the preventative conservation part of me reallly wants to know what materials he used and how much he thought about how they woulddeteriorate. like I think concrete is porous enough that moisture would slowly seep through if the soil was wet which it presumably issometimes. the spray paint would presumably slow this down but I imagine it would not be super long lasting. also is resin a plastic? let meinvestigate. ok yes but I would have to get my computer to look up the various types and how quickly they degrade (if anyones really studiedit. anyways I’m wondering about the long term interaction between the resin and whatever cheetos bags are and metal and concrete and spraypaint. i would need to rewatch the video to see if the ingredients are deeply carved in bc if they’re not I really don’t think that willlast 1000 years much less 10000. hopefully the people of the future will have more sophisticated archaeological tool to analyze whateverthey discover…. i just don’t want the scientologists to beat regular weirdos when it comes to hiding secret treats for future archaeologists
