Really looking forward the resulting outputs from all these (uh, did I just sound like an AI?). Esp. those on the intersection of technology and analog.
The past year or so I’ve been migrating back to analog equivalents (writing with fountain pen & paper, typewriting, reading physical books, etc.) and it’s been deeply fulfilling. Like meeting long lost friends.
A lot of youngsters prefer analog experiences. Not the majority, but they’re out there. That tells me that this isn’t about an older generation pushing nostalgia on Gen-Z and Alphas. Something is broken today, and people are tired of it.

Some great ideas.
I find typing relaxing, computers boring.
One huge health advantage is that no one ever got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome using a manual typewiter, only electronic keyboards.
