What I mean is that the book is a technology that long precedes the printing press and that "print" is a medium only metaphorically, like "the press". The medium is writing.

I wrote more but deleted it.

Also may rethink all of this tomorrow

A good friend of mine wrote a YA adaption of Anna Karenina book that got greenlighted for series. Read it on a flight back east a couple years ago. Think crazy rich Asians meets gossip girl

of course! i gave them a brief overview of how papyrus & parchment is made before leading into an (also brief) discussion of illuminated manuscripts and the printing press' challenge to religious authority

always fun when they learn parchment isn't paper

this is a more difficult thing to parse

i think we're talking semantics here tho because I can flow with the arg that "print" incorporates writing since my understanding is there's an etymological connection there

who knows

i'm also partial to just saying the medium here is the word since I'm staring down the barrel of writing a diss on the history of voice v. logos #Derrida

"It explored how the unique grain of our voice locates us socially, geographically and psychologically, and how it is utterly flexible and can be altered with treatment and training."

I feel like you posted that on the chat thread once
