Of course I immediately thought of "Anathem" by Neal Stephenson ;)

Anathem was inspired by the 10K clock project in the first place right?

It's probably fairer to say that Neal was involved with The Long Now anyway, and wrote a novel about it and also some Liebniz he wanted to tell you all about.

hprotagonist on a Stephenson thread, glorious.

Movies, microcode, and pizza delivery.

and ancient sumerian, let’s not forget.
