»anachronism« typewriter poems by anatol knotek
unique, handmade chapbook, 16 poems, DIN A6, with sewn bindings;
»usually a book is just a copy - but not this one. every poem is individually written with my typewriter, so each single page is unique. out of about 50 poems i chose 16 for each book, therefore also the contents varies and is never the same.«
if you like to purchase the book, you can use the paypal button on the left side of my blog, or just contact me on tumblr or via email: anatol(at)anatol(dot)cc
This awesome device is a fully-functional Typewriter Arm Guard with Bluetooth and Touchpad created by Thomas Willeford of Brute Force Studios. The keyboard is mounted on an intricately tooled Steampunkish leather and brass arm guard.
Watch a video demonstration here. Then head over to Etsy to view more images and, if you’ve got $1200 to spare, perhaps even order one for yourself.
