 i indeed plan to tape it & i'll give you my impressions. but there probably 
 won't be lust & time (- a child will be born around that date ...) to work out 
 a full length translation. anyway, i can tell you already by now what friedrich 
 kittler will say: literature & engineering are, basically, the same &   
 pynchon's most important text, the key to his universe, so to speak, is that  
 early technical piece for boeing (- "togetherness", 1960). though this is, 
 inside the crustated academic landscape in germany, still somehow refreshing, i 
 actually don't think that the complex theme of socio-technical hybridity in 
 pynchon can be understood  t h a t  easy ...
       
                                                  off & on it rains: kai
