+[[tag:person:andreas_mueller-pohle|Andreas Müller-Pohle]] recounts:
 "Vilém Flusser's essay "Die Schrift" is not only about writing, it calls writing itself into question through writing. Originally we had discussed a traditional printed book for publication, the idea for an electronic edition in my exchanges with [[tag:person:Volker_Rapsch|Volker Rapsch]], with whom I founded [[immatrix_publications|Immatrix Publications]] in 1986.  Flusser liked this new idea and contributed a new "postscript" for the electronic edition.  In the postscript (literally "after writing") Flusser proposes the reader can either encounter the electronic publication as a "no-longer-book" (//nichtmehrbuch//) or as a "also-still-book" (//nochimmerbuch//) - to indicate that the reader could engage with the publication in dialogue instead of simply reading it off the screen. \\
 Therein lay the whole explosiveness of this project: it allowed the reader not only apprehend text as the result of a writing process, but it permitted text to become a process itself. This essay pointed towards a new culture of writing, and fortunately there was a technology - primitive from today's point of view - with which the experiment could be attempted concretely."
