I recently heard about some startup in France that manufactures machines designed to print out short stories according to how much time you have to spare.
You push a button labeled 3 minutes, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes, select which genre you want, and then the machine prints a receipt, basically, with the story printed on it. A story vending machine. An electronic, time sensitive bard.
It’s supposed to help people spend less time on their phone while waiting, I think. I wonder if someone else will invent little stations supplied with stationery where you can write short letters or notes while you wait.
Whether that happens or not you’ll still be able to supply your own little stationery corner for odd moments inside your house.
