Computer, Enhance! Augmentation, Ideation, Hypertext
By ‘augmenting human intellect’ we mean increasing the capability of a man to approach a complex problem or situation, to gain comprehension to suit his particular needs, and to derive solutions to problems.” So wrote Douglas Engelbart in 1962, initiating a narrative of augmentation that runs through hypertext's history. To augment is to amplify something: our ideas, our activities, our thoughts. This paper explores hypertext's relationship with computers as intentional machines, its relationship with artificial and human intelligence, and what role it can play in negotiating between the two.- doi

- By ‘augmenting human intellect’ we mean increasing the capability of a man to approach a complex problem or situation, to gain comprehension to suit his particular needs, and to derive solutions to problems.” So wrote Douglas Engelbart in 1962, initiating a narrative of augmentation that runs through hypertext's history. To augment is to amplify something: our ideas, our activities, our thoughts. This paper explores hypertext's relationship with computers as intentional machines, its relationship with artificial and human intelligence, and what role it can play in negotiating between the two.
