       10/16/1993 - The Secret Life of Machines/INTEROP
       
       Dr. Moira Gunn speaks with Tim Hunkin, Engineer, Cartoonist, and
       Filmmaker. His latest television series, "The Secret Life of
       Machines," will be aired in the Fall on the Discovery Channel.
       Following a college hobby of cartooning, Tim's humorous scientific
       cartoon strip, "The Rudiments of Wisdom," was published for 14 years
       in Britain. He discusses his experience with the television series
       and his invention of various coin-operated machines, including "The
       Frisker" currently installed at Coven Garden.
       
       Moira also speaks with Dan Lynch, Chairman and Founder of Interop
       Company. Dan talks about the conference that has grown in a few short
       years from 200 people to 65,000. He answers the question of just what
       could bring 65,000 people to one place for an entire week and Interop
       Company's plans for international conferences next year. He traces his
       early experience on ARPANET through the present Internet, and explains
       how there really is no one in charge. This network of networks has no
       hierarchy and, now that it exists, cannot be centrally or easily shut
       down.
