In an age where streaming services reign supreme, someone decides to dust off their time machine and test ancient Japanese optical discs like it's 1998. Apparently, TDK UV Guard and friends are making a comeback—because nothing screams cutting-edge technology like a 25-year-old piece of plastic.

I found a small time capsule from September 1977 while renovating a small house near Leipzig. Inside there is a letter about the family members that built that suspended ceiling and a newspaper from that time.

Last week, during the Quarterly All-Team call, I asked our team members to *capture @Mastodon in 2024* on one slide.
This ↓ was the result!

Q&A: The time capsule at Chinook Mall turned 25. What's in it?
Buried six feet under CF Chinook Centre’s main entrance on Dec. 31, 1999, the time capsule is 25 years old this New Year’s Eve. One of the artists involved in its creation told CBC Radio a bit about what's inside.
