Tags: Education · Family Dynamics
What if a computer could be a bicycle for the mind? Through anecdotes about teaching kids to use computers, my daughters composing in GarageBand with a MIDI keyboard at our family iMac, I reflect on computing conviviality and Illich's tools for conviviality. I also trace remote work through seminary to a home economy.
Rolly's Take
For those who find poetry in the everyday dance of technology and creativity. This blog speaks to the mindful parent, the thoughtful creator, who seeks to transform screens from mere distractions into vessels of connection and beauty. It's a gentle reminder that tools can foster not just productivity, but also deeper familial bonds and a sense of belonging in an increasingly digital world.
