Why I Am Not Going to Buy a Computer

For a morning read, this was short, thought provoking and engaging. It raised some questions about marriage / partnership and the ‘social economy' that I have not considered before, and tuned my eye to that of a conservationist in the age of technological enhancement...shit, this was written in 1987/9?

I wonder what the author thinks of the world today.

I love this:

“Finally, it seems to me that none of my correspondents recognizes the innovativeness of my essay. If the use of a computer is a new idea, then a newer idea is not to use one.”

Also a generous nod at the end to embodied learning, how the body ‘characterises' everything it touches. Awesome.
