Doug Engelbart is the key figure in the development of personal computing. Almost no one knows his name. We are proud to have unique, exclusive access to Doug Engelbart to make this documentary. He has finally agreed to tell his story.
The associated web site will feature all the interviews (web video & streaming video for mobile phones) in full on the day they are recorded, with behind the scenes footage. The site will also continue the production blog, which has been running since January. Further resources on the site include components of the HyperScope (client-server system built to radically enhance Web browsing), the next step in Doug Engelbart’s invisible revolution.
The production team behind Invisible Revolution is Fleur and Frode. We are based in London.
Follow the shooting live on the production blog from the 8th through to the 19th of August.
