Ken Kesey and Tom Robbins talk about writing

The speaker reflects on the relationship between language and technology, expressing a preference for handwriting over using machines like computers or typewriters. They describe the tactile and personal nature of writing by hand as a ritualistic process. Despite this preference, the speaker acknowledges the benefits of technology, such as an IBM display writer, in editing and refining their work. The final typed copy is seen as a fresh canvas that invites further refinement, contrasting with the more 'experienced' feel of handwritten pages.
