Post industrial is today’s past.
Colorful textiles were produced for several decades in Canton Glarus (CH).
Hydroelectric power from flyover canals ran the industry.
The factory weir regulated the water flow…
and the Escher-Wyss turbines powered the looms.
Today looms and workers are no more.
The production arrested…
and the factory future became its past..
