N2 - This article explores an apparently insignificant, mundane object – the wear pad of a Tibetan prayer wheel – to show how it can have interesting and diverse trajectories even after it has become useless as a wear pad. Worn-down wear pads have acquired new values because they were polished by the prayer wheel rotations.Blog post of 5300 words with 21 illustrations published 8/8 on the research community blog Object Lessons from Tibet & the Himalayas: https://objectlessonsfromtibetblog.wordpress.com/2023/08/08/what-can-become-of-a-shell/
