OUTLOOK Maehints By Dotti Vannard Lamm t was a hot day in August when I first hunched down over the keyboard of the Altos Word Processor. Cold beads of moisture broke out on my forehead. My muscles tensed, my throat ached and my vision blurred. The classic symptoms of panic, I thought. Why? The moisture was not the writers classic bloodsweat that breaks forth when faced with a deadline, but no ideas. I had no deadline, and perhaps 100 ideas. My panic was not the job at hand but the equipment to be mastered. I felt physically as if I were being threatened asked to scuba dive to 300 feet or to solo an airplane after one lesson. Every time the instructor said, To get off the text screen, .hit I was moved EscapeEscape, to do just that: escape from the keyboard and flee back to the comfort of a small dictaphone with only two buttons to push. All my life I have avoided the old and the technology new. As the daughter of an hydraulic engineer, I loved to observe the rushing and gushing of his laboratory simulations of dams, spillways and canals, but had absolutely no interest in running them myself. As a instructor in 1963, 1 assiduously avoided learning how to operate a movie projector, even though the skill was required for the job. I still cant. I changed a tire once, but couldnt do it now and know nothing about how an automobile runs. I cant rewire an electrical device and am a disaster with all failed household appliances with the single exception of my anc' flight-attenda- nt portable sewing machine. Tomorrow, bring something youre really going to use, said the instructor. Why do I avoid technology until necessity brings me kicking and screaming into attempted mastery? Necessity beckons. For in writing, efficiency is the essence. And someday I may not have a secretary. If inherited traits played a part in my technology anxiety, I got the wrong genes from some distant ancestor. My fathers whole life was technology. My mother was a math teacher who still retains numerous technicalclerical skills. If sex role conditioning or sexism was to blame, it only did half a job. For other masculine pursuits the enjoyment of physical sports, the urge to explore, to get dirty, to climb trees, to venture I picked up opinions loudly with the best of the boys. Perhaps my historicalhysterical technology phobia is part of that theory, which is currently so much talked about. Jacquelyn Wonder and Priscilla Donovan in their book Whole Brained Thinking point out that most people have a dominant brain side. Right brain is intuitive, feeling, creative, artistic, inspired. The left brain is logical, mathematical, systematic, technical. d If people are I which tend to be, dominant, its not that they cant use the other brain half; its that they become more and more d proficient in activities and neglect to develop right-braine- right-braine- skills. left-brain- Aquarian Conspiracy author Marilyn Ferguson would call this repetitive half- brained behavior getting stuck on ones schtick. A person gets so good at the one thing she does, she never learns to do anything else. Well, Im not going to get stuck on my schtick! Im going to get off my intuitive, d feeling roll, and learn something practical and mechanical for a change. Im going to make one of those paradigm shifts Im always preaching to others about, and jump the chasm between right and left brain before it gets too wide to clear. right-braine- Im going to get this blasted thing working and make it work for me. And Im going to do it today. Then tomorrow Im going to change a tire and fix the toaster. At 47, its about time. EscapeEscape.
