EVENTS + OPPORTUNITIES

DESIGN PIONEERS, DR. JEFF RULIFSON
September 10, 2021

12–1 PM

Join us tomorrow, Friday, September 10, for Design Pioneers with Dr. Jeff Rulifson. Rulifson is a computer scientist, most notably recognized as the software designer for the 1968 Computer Society's Fall Joint Computer Conference's "Mother of All Demos." This historical demonstration was led by Douglas Engelbart, who, alongside Jeff Rulifson's designs, demonstrated essentially all of the fundamental elements of modern personal computing.

This talk will be facilitated on Zoom for our public audience, but students are invited and encouraged to join us at 310 Jacobs Hall for a screening of the conversation. If you would like to join, please make sure to wear a mask and bring your own device to login for the Q+A. Register for the talk here.
