carbon based semiconductors (Graphite, carbon and other stuff)
"The most used semiconductor material, Si, which serves so well in electronics, happens to have rather poor properties when it comes to biological environments. In salty solutions and especially with applied potentials Si becomes easily corroded. This opens the stage for new and seemingly exotic materials: carbon based semiconductors. Carbon is one of the main elements in organic chemistry, which concerns materials ranging from plastic foils to biological systems like enzymes or even cells."

Earth computer
"The earth computer proposes the bootstrapping of a long-term, visible computational device self-constructed solely from the earth, and embedded within the earth as a critical monument to human technology. The total environment (geophysical, biological, electro-chemical) itself encodes and manipulates active, new computational-crystalline structures which compute, impact on and re-code this environment within a complex feedback system."
