Students Find Life Hard Without Computers

Students, as part of a documentary-making course at Carleton College in Minnesota, have decided not to use a computer for 5 weeks. Impressive. If this documentary was following me during 5 weeks without a PC it’d be called “Curled Up In A Ball Crying.” Could you go 5 weeks without your computer?

Capturing the experience of going without a computer — for Magnusson it was five weeks — is part of a documentary-making course at Carleton College in Northfield, Minn. She and two other students who went on the "computer fast" are the documentary subjects; eight others took turns filming.
