Ted Nelson struggles with uncomprehending radio interviewer, 1979

A 1979 radio interview in which Ted Nelson tries to explain personal computing and his ideas about hypertext to a host who does not understand what he is describing. The audio is a record of how strange these ideas sounded before the personal computer era.

HN treats it as the best Ted Nelson interview, a view of his prophetic vision for computers and the skepticism it met.
