Fridge | Nov 17 2003

Something strange just happened. A sound came from the refrigerator that made me suddenly aware of what I’m doing, which is that I’m sitting in a room, in my underwear and sandles, writing things on a computer. I’ve been doing this for several hours now.

Sociologist Marc Smith: “People like computers because there are people in them.”

But also because there aren’t people in them—because they aren’t people.
