Interest in Logo history

[Michael Kuepper]

Dear group,

I'm looking for details on the early concepts and ideas behind Logo.
It would be nice to read some of the papers from the people behind
Logo (not just Seymour Papert).

Also, I would like to read about the work on the early
implementations.

Has anyone such papers, essays or anything alike? On the Internet I
found nearly nothing. Maybe somebody has relevant links?

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Michael,

have you read the early MIT AI reports?

http://publications.csail.mit.edu/ai/pubs_browse.shtml

See AIM-246, 247, 248, 249, 307, 307A, 311, 313, 315, 315A, 336, 343,
348, 356, 360, 361, 371, 373, 375, 396, 432, 460, 484, 523, 545, 546,
575, 586, 590, 640 and 652. I think that after these the Media Lab was
created and all Logo activity continued there.

Cynthia Solomon has gathers lots of interesting early material at

https://logothings.wikispaces.com/

This includes some of the reports I mentioned above and some that I
didn't list. It includes a link to

http://www.sonoma.edu/users/l/luvisi/logo/logo.memos.html

which relates AIM report numbers to Logo Memo numbers.

Dear Jecel,

thank you for your help. I wasn't aware of the CSAIL Publications.
Reading all of this will be a pleasure for me.

Greetings,

Michael
