Haptic, Covid, Philosophy

By Alan Sondheim

Alan Sondheim caught COVID-19 in late August 2023, and was violently ill for over a week; after that, his condition descended into long Covid. The result has seen an array of physical and mental problems, such as fatigue, visual disturbances, and, oddly, his nail growth slowing to almost nothing. Sondheim began writing a series of texts throughout this period, mostly typing with his eyes closed, and keeping the errors in; Sondheim intended to focus on content and ignore the 'burden' of sight, the physical part most affected by long Covid, which brings so much else into play. In other words, Haptic, Covid, Philosophy is a form of meditation.
