Zippo Lighter Fluid (Naphtha)
While Zippo lighter fluid (Naphtha) is a bit more expensive per ounce than other solvents (mineral spirits, lacquer thinner, et al), it does usually come packaged in a dispensing container that may make it easier to dispense in a directed method into the internals of typewriters for cleaning them out.
The other benefit is that some may have it on hand for general household use without needing to make a separate trip to the hardware store.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_tetrachloride
Carbon tetrachloride or carbon tet is a non-flammable, dense, colorless liquid which was often used as a cleaning agent in the mid 1900s, but was phased out due to safety and environmental concerns. High exposure can affect the central nervous system and cause damage to the liver and kidneys. Prolonged exposure can be fatal.

we must shed our outdated concept of a document. We need to think in terms of flexible jumping and viewing options. The objects assembled into a document should be dealt with explicitly as representaions of kernel concepts in the authors' minds, and explicit structuring options have to be utilized to provide a much enhanced mapping of the source concept structures.
This seems like the original concept that Microsoft's Fluid document framework is based on. And Apple's earlier OpenDoc project.

if you replace the idea that life is a narrative with the idea that life is a vision
It's an interesting thought to replace the idea of life as a narrative vs a vision, it kind of goes along with the idea of technology being concrete of fluid. A narrative is something more concrete and a vision seems for fluid because a narrative is bound by the progression of time and in a vision things can happen simultaneously.
