But alas, pencils and paintbrushes are mechanical devices (being levers, they're simple machnes). Indeed, paper, canvas, easels: they're all "technology".

I believe it's called "storytelling". cheers, frank ;-) -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
