A Teleconference on Teleconferencing (1974) (PDF)
A largely historical document, though with some interesting observations especially on taxonomies of "conferencing systems" (think: anything that lets 3+ people not in the same location communicate interactively).
I'm unable to track down who posted this, though I believe it was one of the contributors to the original paper itself.
Thank you very much, you who have been forgotten but not forgotten.
... actually I'm pretty sure now it was Larry press

Edward Morbius, sounds like to me your 1974 "A Teleconference on Teleconferencing" may have played an important role in how you relate to and understand today's internet environment.

Scott Scowcroft Thanks.
ReplyDeleteScott Scowcroft So, I'd actually just discovered this article, so its impacts on my thinking will likely lie in my future ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat said: I'm finding it a fascinating read, for all the usual reasons. What's covered, what's not, what seems familiar, what seems quaint, what dynamics seem intrinsic to media.
And the ontologies and taxonomies. I love me some taxonomy.
