''[[Die Tikmasjien]]'' ("The typewriter") is a [[radio drama]] by [[Pirow Bekker]] (1935-).

'''BEING EDITED'''
==The original text==

In hierdie drama is water die fokuspunt. Die soeke daarna, almal se afhanklikheid daarvan, asook die besef van die kwaliteite waaraan water lewe gee. Met hierdie drama beskryf Bekker die verband wat daar is tussen die tikmasjien en die waterboormasjien. Die boormasjien soek water op ’n direkte manier, terwyl die tikmasjien indirek lewe gee deur die woord. Albei word deur ou werktuie gedoen - ’n klassieke Olympia-handmodel-tikmasjien en ’n Star-waterboormasjien.

First broadcast in [[Radioteater]] on [[RSG]] in October 2016.

+A play about water: the search for it, our dependence on it, and the realization that it is a provider of life in so many concrete and metaphorical ways. In the piece Bekker then traces the similarities between a water drilling rig and a typewriter, the first searches for water in a direct way, the second gives indirectly, by means of the word. And both are achieved through old machines: a classic Olympia typewriter and a Star drilling machine...
