Can Wendell Berry's "Why I Am not Going To Buy A Computer" (1987)* be considered an early example of permacomputing? Little excerpt: > I would hate to think that my work as a writer could not be done without a direct dependence on strip-mined coal. How could I write conscientiously against the rape of nature if I were, in the act of writing, implicated in the rape? For the same reason, it matters to me that my writing is done in the daytime, without electric light. * https://classes.matthewjbrown.net/teaching-files/philtech/berry-computer.pdf
