The oil field is on the verge of being depleted. Beneath the surface, there are only remnants of a substance that has made modern mobility, globalization, the plastics industry and probably even capitalism as we know it possible.

What unexpected connections does the sound of the pumpjack, emblematic of the oil rush of an earlier era, point to?
