Back in the late 60’s or early 70’s a guy name Steve Brand (this if from
memory) came out with The Whole Earth Catalog--An Access to Tools. Big rage
in the hippie/design/commune/techno geeky subcultures. He essentially
provided a source for tool and from there applications resulted.

Whole Earth Catalog by
Stewart Brand

Steve/Stewart not bad for 40 years of being in a muddled brain of millions of
pathways. Even got “access to tools” right. As you can tell, that was a really
important book in my youth. And memories from youth are the ones that stick the
best in old age.
Incredibly interesting reading and would make a good resource for anyone wanting
to learn about the years when technology really bloomed. Low tech and high tech.
