In 1953, Shell Labs in Amsterdam was the first site in the Netherlands to use an electronic computer in a production environment. The computer was a Ferranti Mark I*, designed at Manchester University (with help from the legendary Alan Turing) and built by British company Ferranti. The Amsterdam model was called MIRACLE, for "Mokums (Amsterdam's) Industrial Research Automatic Calculator for Laboratory and Engineering", but some people nicknamed it "May It Replace All Chaotic Laboratory Experiments". My mother was one of its programmers and kept a photo album.

 

"If you like solving puzzles and work accurately, the art of programming can be learnt in a few weeks. No psychological test is needed." That's what the Shell internal newspaper wrote. I'm not sure if they regretted that statement.

In 1909, voice transmissions sent from the Herrold College of Wireless and Engineering in San Jose, California, qualified their broadcaster, Charles “Doc” Herrold as a true pioneer in radio communication. His first disk jockey was his wife, Sybil. Herrold took requests during his weekly “Little Ham Program,” gave out weekly prizes to listeners and was the first to consider radio advertising. Today the station he founded is known as KCBS, San Francisco.

This is at VRM Day 2022b, the second of the two in-person gatherings that ProjectVRM holds each year, always the day before the Internet Identity Workshop (IIW) commences for the next three days at the Computer History Museum in Silicon Valley. This time the workshop also included a talk and discussion led by Roger McNamee as part of the Beyond the Web Salon Series led by Doc and Joyce Searls, who (in addition to their work with ProjectVRM) are visiting scholars at the Ostrom Workshop, of Indiana University, which hosts the series. Roger's talk was carried live by Owl , RingCentral and Zoom to IU and the world. Roger's talk so energized attendees that a cabal, informally called Roger & We, was formed in the room and took more shape over the following days at IIW. Its purpose became branded ESC, for End Surveillance Capitalism.

 

ProjectVRM was born in 2006 as a project by Doc Searls when he became a fellow with the Berkman Klein Center at Harvard University. Its blog, wiki, and mailing list (of more than 500 members) remain kindly hosted by the BKC.
