    Theodor Holm Nelson

    Founding Designer, Project Xanadu Bio Imagined world-wide hypertext in the 1960s, and from the 1960s strove for a system of world-wide hypertext– of which the Web (with only jump-links) is a subset.  Parallel pages, visibly connected, were and are the main idea.   Ted Nelson coined many terms in common use (all with articles in Wikipedia)– hypertext, hypermedia, micropayment, transclusion, intertwingularity, dildonics (“teledildonics” came later), enfilade, docuverse, compound document.  [ As well as (not in Wikipedia) structangle, possiplex, hyperthogonal structure, and sworfing (swooping and/or morphing).    For over fifty years, proponent and designer of Project Xanadu– originally an initiative and software for world-wide hypertext, but continuing as an alternative design…

    HyperKnowledge

    Hyperknowledge allows to build a federated ecosystem of knowledge work tools. It is based on an event sourcing model of generalized concept graphs, which can model structured data or documents. High-level events are interpreted into micro-events by distributed components, allowing for ad-hoc event model extensibility; components can enrich data reactively; inter-process subscription allows reactive transclusion. Longer Description We will present work in progress on the hyperknowledge protocol. We are developing infrastructure for a federated document and concept graph model, HyperKnowledge. We want to establish a Web of Knowledge. This allows to see how any idea is connected with other ideas in debates, through evidence, citations, influence, consequences, etc. The long-term goal is…

    Collaborama

    Collaborama attempts to rethink many aspects of today’s software development by providing collaborative teams a web-based integrated development environment inspired by many Engelbartian principles. Software development projects progress through many phases (e.g. ideation, team formation, prototype development, engineering, software testing, user testing, deployment, analysis) and requires many different skill sets (e.g marketing, product management, design, software engineering, QA). Today’s software development process uses a myriad of tools that are poorly integrated and share very little in common with each other.  Workers in different roles use word processors, bug tracking systems, presentation programs, project management software, testing tools, programming languages, deployment frameworks — and none of these talk to each other…

    Tim O’Reilly

    Tim O’Reilly has a history of convening conversations that reshape the computer industry. If you’ve heard the term “open source software” or “web 2.0” or “the Maker movement” or “government as a platform” or “the WTF economy,” he’s had a hand in framing each of those big ideas. He is the founder, CEO, and Chairman of O’Reilly Media, and a partner at early stage venture firm O’Reilly AlphaTech Ventures (OATV). He is also on the boards of Maker Media (which was spun out from O’Reilly Media in 2012), Code for America, PeerJ, Civis Analytics, and PopVox. His book, WTF: What’s the Future and Why It’s Up to Us, was released by Harper Collins in October 2017. linkedin.com/in/timo3 https://twitter.com/timoreilly

    Jeff Rulifson

    While still a student, Johns Frederick (Jeff) Rulifson designed the software for the most impressive event in computing history, the legendary “Mother of All Demos” at the Computer Society’s Fall Joint Computer Conference in which Douglas Engelbart demonstrated essentially all the fundamental elements of modern personal computing: windows, hypertext, graphics, efficient navigation and command input, video conferencing, the computer mouse, word processing, dynamic file linking, revision control, and a collaborative real-time editor.    Rulifson’s subsequent career as a computer scientist is an unbroken series of significant contributions in artificial intelligence, office information systems, research, standards, and engineering management. He has advanced the computer art at Stanford Research Institute’s Augmentation Research…
