The Bit Player
Ooh! A documentary on Claude Shannon—exciting!
I just finished reading A Mind At Play, the (very good) biography of Claude Shannon, so this film feels very timely.
Mixing contemporary interviews, archival film, animation and dialogue drawn from interviews conducted with Shannon himself, The Bit Player tells the story of an overlooked genius who revolutionized the world, but never lost his childlike curiosity.

20 Years Ago Today
A lovely reminiscence from Matt on how he came to fall in love with the World Wide Web.
I really hope he posts this on his own site—it’ll be a shame when this disappears along with everything else being posted to Medium.
