Wolfgang StiefDear Computer History people: I'm searching for books covering the history of the MIT Media Lab.The only one I found so far is "The Media Lab" by Stewart Brand, released in 1988. So a bit dated. Are you aware of other titles, which also cover the time AFTER 1988? It might be titles on other subjects but with a significant amount on the MIT Media Lab.Edit: There is some material on their website as well: <a href="https://www.media.mit.edu/about/history/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.media.mit.edu/about/history/</a><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vintagecomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vintagecomputing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/techhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#techhistory</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/medialab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#medialab</a>
