Electrical and electronic connectors are an archetypal example of Machine Age artefacts. In this article I focus on two such connectors, the jack plug and DIN plug, which have played a key role in the history of music technology. Their development, and that of cognate technologies, serves as a graphic illustration of the processes of standardization and miniaturization that have shaped the material culture of the contemporary world
