Typing filmed at 120fps

My camera has a high speed (120fps) setting, although the resolution is limited. Enjoy these slow motion videos of me typing on my Hermes 3000, Olivetti Valentine, Remington Noiseless, Remington Portable 2, Torpedo 18, and Triumph Norm.

View them all and more at my youtube channel, X Over It.

It is said that the Torpedo is one of the fastest typewriters. I think that the footage backs this claim up because the typebars seem to be a bit snappier than on the other typewriters! (or am I just wishing?)

Returning from lost leaves of time

I'm back! I'm sure there have been some excellent new blogs started in my absence. Let me know what I am missing!

Typed on my Consul Silent and Remington Deluxe Noiseless.

What I Discovered at the Methodist Yard Sale

Typed on my new Remington Deluxe Noiseless on paper from a hotel in Colorado that I picked up last summer. It's surprisingly heavy and very nice compared to my usual copy paper fare. Too bad I only had two sheets. See how the keys sparkle? They're so new-looking.

Also, with my new PowerBook I can actually use the new Blogger interface. And upload photos en masse instead of one at a time. Funfunfun.
