Steve Jobs piece in The Independent magazine
The Independent magazine did a special on technology; I wrote a profile of Steve Jobs. Meh.
I’d have to say that I think Katy Guest’s piece on Living in the past (ie not using anything invented beyond 1959) is great - quite an intellectual challenge, that - and the things that people can’t live without is really interesting too.

Presumably, books published before 1959.. films made before 1959.. powdered egg.. it’s the 1950s house!

well, it might be possible, if you really made an effort, to find a week’s worth of books published before 1959 to read, or even films made before then.

The books of course are rather easy. The films present rather more of a problem: how many people had home projection facilities for 35mm (or even 16 or 8 mm) film before 1959? And where ywould you actually get the film from anyway?
