A friend of mine, watching my self portrait with typewriter on my wordpress frontpage – he asked, if I have an input door / mouth in my PC tower for all those paper outputs coming from my old fashioned typewriter. Yes, he comes near to the problem: to convert 40 years of paper writing into the digital orbit of the world wide web.

  1. Scan, convert to pdf. I for one can compose better with a notebook and a pencil, not to hard, not to soft, but with the aroma of the cider essence: i love the smell of freshly sharpened pencil, mangling with that of coffee…Handwriting has its privileges.

    Thanks for the reverie.
