The Visible Language Workshop Archive

The Visible Language Workshop Archive is a small collection of video and audio tapes, teaching slides, and a large portfolio of detailed notes and documents exposing the theories, inner workings, and products of Muriel Cooper’s VLW, examining interactive media design, electronic communication, and experimentation with computing and printing technologies. This archive also contains materials from the 1994 TED 5 conference in Monterey, California, where Cooper presented a collection of student work from the Workshop, and a box of unique materials from the dedication of first Media Lab building (E15) in 1985, where the VLW was a founding group.
