Pioniere, Vorreiter, Avantgardisten

Ich bin immer wieder über­rascht, wie alt das Inter­net eigentlich ist. Oder bess­er: wie alt die Idee des Inter­nets eigentlich ist. War wohl ein Spätzün­der — 1992 den ersten Com­put­er bekom­men, 2000 die erste E‑Mail-Adresse. In diesem Doku­men­tarfilm von 1972 mit dem Titel «Com­put­er Net­works: The Her­alds Of Resource Shar­ing» kom­men all die wichti­gen Pro­tag­o­nis­ten zu Wort, die damals an der Entwick­lung von Net­zw­erken wie Arpanet beteiligt waren: Fer­nan­do José Cor­bató, Joseph Carl Rob­nett Lick­lid­er, Lawrence Roberts, Robert Elliot Kahn, Frank Heart, William R. Suther­land, Richard W. Wat­son, John R. Pas­ta, Don­ald Watts Davies und George W. Mitchell. Ein wun­der­bares Stück Zeitgeschichte.

Hello – my name is Florian. I'm a runner and blazing trails for Spot the Dot — an NGO to raise awareness of melanoma and other types of skin cancer. Beyond that, I get lost in the small things that make life beautiful: the diversity of specialty coffee, the stubborn silence of bike rides, and the flashes of creativity in fashion and design. Professionally, I’m an organizational psychologist and communications expert — working at the intersection of people, culture, and language. Alongside my corporate work, I’m also a barista at Benson Coffee — a Cologne based roastery obsessed with quality (and trophies on the side).
