"The text that chooses to appear in the network instead 
of on the table strives for the greatest possible economy 
of the word. Reading pleasure used to be based on piling 
stylistic ornaments on top of story lines. The literary 
calculator now recognises this as noise and an obstacle to communication."
		(ADILKNO "Media Archive")

	Adilkno(Bilwet) have recently released an English 
addition of a book written in '92.
	Much of the stuff was already to be read in various 
on-line archives but many chapters have not previously 
been seen in English.
	Of course some of the words and ideas have dated 
but many seem to still be relevant...some very.

Economy of words is always in my head. 
		This medium wants to be read at speed, 
					no time to waste.
While the sounds often listened to, new minimal, 
moves extremely slowly, a couple of sounds, changes, 
pulses, carried out over an extended time
	...stretched ideas full of variation in their 
lack of change.
						How is one to listen to this 
stuff, fill the head with it while at the same time 
trying to write without noise?
			Maybe like the new minimalist one needs 
only to juxtapose a few sounds to get the 
feeling across.
