Have you ever gone to check your messages on Facebook and found yourself, an hour later, looking at the profile of an old high-school acquaintance’s new boyfriend/ girlfriend? In this digital era distraction has become an epidemic. Tools like calculators, phones, writing programs, and cameras open portals into happening social networks. This has lead to a reactionary movement, in which some individuals are stepping backward and stripping down gadgets. The ‘Hemingwrite,’ developed by Adam Leeb and Patrick Paul, is such a device intended to create a simpler distraction-free world.
The ‘Hemingwrite’ is a modernized typewriter equipped with a screen that shows the text, time, and power level. It syncs documents directly to Cloud apps, has a 6-week battery life and can store one million pages of memory. Lacking the ability to ‘copy and paste,’ this device is perfect for banging out first drafts. You can later go back and edit work with a computer or laptop.
