Alfonso Pretelt – TOTEM – Colombia

For the caveman the stone was a triumph achieved by necessity. In the same way, stone can be thought of as the first technology, the interface that favors a mutation, a journey, as we have noted, towards the current man. It is known that one of the few ways in which primitive man began to use fire was skillfully scraping two stones. It was the age of man in which music was born.
