Five questions for William S. Tribell
October 13, 2009
William S. Tribell is an American expat, currently living and writing in Budapest. Born in Kentucky in 1977, William is a long time resident of New Orleans and a Katrina refugee. William has lived and traveled through out the US and abroad, looking for inspiration, culture and the human condition.
1. Are you currently working on anything, and why’s it taking so long?
“Life is poetry if you try. Always working on something; Never finished.”
2. Do you actually have moments of inspiration or is writing just a process of slogging day in and day out?
“Yes, always waiting and looking for inspiration.”
3. What’s the last thing you read that made your hair stand up on end?”
“Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.”
4. Does poetry matter anymore?
“Unfortunately to a great many, not so much. But I think people will always make poetry.”
5. How much longer will the Book last as our primary vehicle of knowledge?
“I don’t think it is the primary any longer.”
I have to agree with William on the final question. With the emergence of hypertext and the internet, traditional printed books are now becoming a novelty and the web has become the primary vehicle for knowledge. Books are largely becoming digitized and folded into the hypertext arena, which makes them more accessible, affordable and part of a larger more interactive experience.
