So that day, I tweeted out that question, and instantly got several replies. One of those Twitter replies pointed to a Wired interview from a decade ago with Paul Baran, the RAND researcher who was partially responsible for the decentralized design.
An addendum to the excellent Everything Is A Remix series, focusing on the influences on The Matrix.
Part two of Kirby Ferguson’s series focuses on films. Creation requires influence.
It's well worth paying attention to this site, the accompaniment to the four-part series of videos entitled "Everything is a Remix."
