My friend told me about a science fiction story he read where humans evolved into consciousness contained within glass tubes, and at the end of the story a boy found the glass tubes in a cave or something and was breaking them for fun. I've looked around, but can't seem to find this story.

Do you know approximately when and where he read it? Whether it was in a magazine or a book? – FuzzyBoots Feb 20 '15 at 20:24

1what exactly entails "evolved into consciousness" in this story? Maybe one of these People Jars examples fits the bill. – Trish Ling Feb 20 '15 at 21:10

The Matched trilogy by Allyson Braithwaite Condie mentions glass containers with the essence of people that have passed away. These containers are stored in a hidden cave and disturbed (retained and/or vandalized) by the protagonists of the story.
