(1987) Doing with Images Makes Symbols: Communicating with computers - Alan Kay (Part 2/2)

This talk tells the story of the design of the "windows and mouse" style of user interface, commonly associated with the Apple Macintosh. We start in the 1960's with Sketchpad, NLS and Grail, and see how these seminal ideas influenced the Smalltalk work with children at Xerox PARC. Finally, we explore human psychology and the multi-mentality theories that helped the PARC designer's work.
