Augment 1

screenshot from demoThis suite of screencasts by Christina Engelbart provides a basic orientation to some key elements of Augment, starting with the simplest point and click user interface of the beginner level Augment Browser, and advancing to progressively higher levels of capability, speed, precision, and proficiency at the "turbo" level. Note this demo is just a (admittedly long-winded!) first-pass prototype to see how screencasting works, the intention is to develop professional quality screencasts of all the software. Also note, these demos show just the tip of the iceberg of the depth and richness of the features and underlying architecture and vision of the system...

  • A Quick Tour of the Augment Browser (25 minute Screencast: 6 scenes)
    Christina's 2008 no frills demo of the Augment Browser, feature by feature, including Zoom buttons, Jump, Viewspecs, Filtering, Create Link, through the progressive user interface levels, from "Class 1" level up to some highlights of the Turbo level. This is a rough draft but informative production.

  • "The Mother of All Demos" (100 minutes Video/Film)
    Doug's 1968 debut of NLS (Augment's precursor) and his guiding principles, he gave this spectacular demo at the Fall Joint Computer Conference in San Francisco, while video teleconferenced with his team back home at his SRI lab in Menlo Park, CA. The technical title of this presentation is A Research Center for Augmenting the Human Intellect. For an abridged version, plus more background, links, resources, press, and reflections on the demo from Doug and his team, see our 1968 Demo page.
