-from "The struggle of writing against the limitations of print culture" by James Tarling:

"It is therefore necessary to question our assumptions about the whole concept of writing, including our ideas of creativity and rhetoric, and attempt to establish whether or not these ideas were originally determined by the technological constraints of the printed book. As artists and designers we will therefore be in a better position to realise the full potential of electronic media by discarding the superfluous cultural baggage of print."
