Writing as a technology. I’ve never really considered writing to be a technology but rather an innate behaviour. But of course it’s not because innate means inborn and that’s not the case. For along as i’ve known, i’ve known how to write. But i had to learn it and now it has become second nature.
When i come to think of it writing in all forms is EVERYWHERE and i love writing! Well there was a little period in semester 1 where i didn’t and i was like…
But other than that i love writing.
“It is a method for arranging verbal thoughts in a visual space”
Just like words cannot be unspoken, writing cannot be unwritten(unless you use an eraser). The idea that writing is a form of art sorry to speak is fascinating. When you write you can visually express your verbal thoughts without speaking them, in a way it provides an alternative to actually speaking. Writing something as opposed to speaking it can create completely separate meanings and reactions even if it were the same thing. Writing is a visual representation of what goes on in our brains. It is a state of mind.. The idea that something can exist in your mind and figuratively take up next to no space yet take up pages upon pages or just in general actual space is a weird notion.
