<p>Japester: </p> <hr /> <div>Filk songs are songs that are either old [[songs]] (either traditional medieval, or modern songs) with new words, or just brand new songs, relating to SCA activities and lifestyle or amusing [[medieval]] content. They are often sung at [[Bardic Circle]]s, while getting [[drunk]] around campfires, or on very very long car trips to [[camping]] [[events]]. Some songs are incredibly witty and amusing, others are so awful they make your head bleed, but either way, it's a fun activity for [[SCAdians]] to get involved in.<br /> [http://flurf.net/batpage/ Fruitbat] is a long known [[filk]] meister.<br /> <br /> === Songs ===<br /> * [[/A Lusty Young Smith]]</div>

<p>Japester: </p> <hr /> <div>Invented by [[Johann Gutenberg]] the '''Gutenberg press''' was a huge leap forward in [[printing]] technology. It wasn't the use of the press itself that was revolutionary but rather the practicle use of moveable type. With moveable type the letters of the alphabet, and symbols, are carved into individual blocks which can be put together to form words and lines. Before this each page had to be carved into a unique wooden plate.<br /> <br /> Until the invention of the Gutenberg press movabletype was possible but Gutenberg developed a method for making all the letter blocks a uniform depth thus ensureing they all made good contact with the page.<br /> <br /> The first books printed by Gutenberg were copies of the [[bible]] and as the press was quick and simple to use the cost was low enough that for the first time peasants could afford [[books]]. This lead to an increase in critical thinking and removed the need for all [[religion]] to be ''interpreted'' by [[priest]]s.<br /> <br /> ''See also:''<br /> * [[Johann Gutenberg]]<br /> * [[books]]<br /> * [[printing]]<br /> * [http://promo.net/pg/ Project Gutenberg]</div>
