please watch http://www.asondheim.org/stem.mp4 thank you Writing in Minimal Fare Writing in Pico in the linux or unix shell strips away excess; what remains is inner speech, a dialog of thought unencumbered by design. It's difficult to work within boxes, colors, menu systems, corporate or other headings. Here I think through the movement of concepts, ideas, emotions; there, I founder on the barriers of software design. True enough, Pico itself is design, but the design minimal; what is visible is primarily a window of unadorned text, processed by a minimal number of commands. There are no distracting images, no sounds or other annoyances (the arrival of new mail, instant messaging, banner ads). It's as if writing has returned to its source in the body and stele or table, and lost in eternity, stone hardened writing should tend only towards existence. the self-inscribed desire sexuality desire's written for & conceivable tablet, there are others that Reading _on_ virtual-real bodyonly to disappear, write background. media change from text To modernism is voiceless voice. voice an enunciation.
