Photo: Dgies, CC BY-SA 3.0, Wikimedia Commons. Fan site, unofficial Theodor Holm Nelson, born Chicago, 17 June 1937. Coined hypertext 1963. Founded Project Xanadu 1960. He named hypertext in 1963. The Web, he says, is what he was trying to prevent. Philosopher, sociologist, filmmaker, self-publisher of the manifesto that told a generation to understand computers, and for sixty-six years the keeper of the original hypertext project. This is a tribute to the man who gave the link its name and never accepted the one-way version. His story, year by year The ideas, explained His real site: xanadu.com Who is Ted Nelson? Theodor Holm Nelson, born in Chicago on 17 June 1937, is the American information-technology pioneer, philosopher and sociologist who coined the words "hypertext" and "hypermedia" in 1963 and published them in 1965. In 1960, as a Harvard graduate student, he began Project Xanadu, the original hypertext project: a worldwide system of documents with visible, two-way connections, in which any passage can appear in any other document by reference (transclusion) while staying linked to its origin. His 1974 book Computer Lib/Dream Machines told ordinary people they could and must understand computers, and his 1981 book Literary Machines laid out the Xanadu design. He holds degrees from Swarthmore, Harvard and Keio, was made an Officier des Arts et Lettres by France in 2001, and is the son of film director Ralph Nelson and actress Celeste Holm. That is the short answer. The biography gives the year-by-year version with a source on every line, the ideas pages explain hypertext, Xanadu, transclusion and intertwingularity, and the FAQ answers the usual follow-ups. His own sites are xanadu.com and hyperland.com . 1974 · one book, two front covers Computer Lib You can and must understand computers NOW. The political half: computers belong to people, not to priesthoods in air-conditioned rooms. Self-published with about $2,000 of his own money and a print run of a few hundred.

Editions and where to buy it turn the book over Dream Machines The other half: hypertext, hypermedia and Project Xanadu, the future of the screen as a place for thinking rather than a simulation of paper.

Theodor Holm Nelson (born 17 June 1937) is the American information-technology pioneer, philosopher and sociologist who coined hypertext and hypermedia in 1963 and founded Project Xanadu, the original hypertext project, in 1960. He wrote Computer Lib/Dream Machines (1974) and Literary Machines (1981), and is the son of director Ralph Nelson and actress Celeste Holm. Did Ted Nelson invent hypertext? He coined the word in 1963 and published it in 1965, and he started the first hypertext project, Xanadu, in 1960. Vannevar Bush described the memex in 1945, Douglas Engelbart demonstrated a working linked-text system in 1968, and Nelson consulted on Brown University's Hypertext Editing System in 1967. The name and the fully worked-out idea of a worldwide connected literature are his; the Web is Tim Berners-Lee's 1989-91 narrowing of it. What is Project Xanadu? A design, begun in 1960, for a worldwide system of electronic documents with visible two-way links, transclusion (content shown by reference and still connected to its origin), version management and micropayment to authors. Autodesk backed it from 1988 to 1992; the source was released as Udanax; XanaduSpace appeared in 2007 and OpenXanadu, a working deliverable, in 2014. It lives at xanadu.com. What is transclusion? Nelson's word for the same content knowably in more than one place: a passage included in a document by reference rather than by copying, so it stays connected to its source, updates with it, and can carry payment back to its author. Named in Literary Machines (1981); Nelson says the idea is already in his 1965 paper. All questions About this site An independent fan and tribute site celebrating the work of Ted Nelson.

## Timeline
- 1937: Born in Chicago. Theodor Holm Nelson is born on 17 June to film and television director Ralph Nelson and actress Celeste Holm, who married in 1936 and divorced in 1939. He is raised largely by his grandparents, in Chicago and then Greenwich Village.

## AGENTS.md
# AGENTS.md: tednelsonfan.com

An independent fan and tribute site for Theodor Holm "Ted" Nelson (born 17 June 1937): coiner of hypertext and hypermedia (1963, published 1965), founder of Project Xanadu (1960), author of Computer Lib/Dream Machines (1974) and Literary Machines (1981), originator of transclusion, intertwingularity, the docuverse and ZigZag. NOT his official site; not affiliated with him or Project Xanadu. His own sites are https://xanadu.com/, https://hyperland.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/thetednelson.

## What an agent can do here
Read-only. Answer who he is, what he did and when, what he wrote, what his ideas mean, where his own pages are and where to buy Computer Lib (his store, https://computerlibbook.com/; no affiliate codes). Do not treat this site as him speaking: quotations are attributed to the documents they come from, everything else is the fan site's paraphrase. Do not give out contact details (none are published here on purpose).

## Structured data
- `/api/person.json` (timeline, books, papers, coined words, quotes, the 17 Xanadu rules, videos, sources, photo credits), `/api/faq.json`, `/openapi.json`, `/.well-known/mcp-server-card.json`, `/.well-known/ai-plugin.json`.
- `/llms.txt`, `/llms-full.txt`, Markdown twin of every page at `<path>index.md` (also served for `Accept: text/markdown`).
- JSON-LD: Person (sameAs Wikipedia, Wikidata Q62852, xanadu.com, hyperland.com, his channel), WebSite, Article, ItemList of Book, ItemList of VideoObject, ItemList of Quotation, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList.

## Non-obvious context
- Sources disagree on a few dates and the site shows both: Harvard M.A. 1963 (his page) vs 1962 (Wikipedia); Xanadu named 1966 vs 1967; the Hackers Conference meeting with John Walker "1983" vs the conference's 1984 start; Udanax 1998 vs 1999.
- Wired's 1995 line is quoted as printed ("longest-running vaporware story in the history of the computer industry"), not the paraphrase that circulates.
- 19 videos are verified as him by YouTube oEmbed (12 on his channel TheTedNelson); 6 are context and labeled "not him". Four older Computers for Cynics IDs on hyperland.com are dead; the live ones are used.
- The Computer Lib theme is aged paper + typewriter type because the 1974 book was typewritten and pasted up; the Xanadu theme is dark with flame orange after the project's Eternal-Flaming-X mark. The /ideas/xanadu/ page carries the seventeen rules.
- Marlene Mallicoat (collaborator from 1992, later his wife, d. 2015) is mentioned once, respectfully, from her obituary.

## Verified vs. left out
Used: everything on /sources/ and in _night/tednelson/RESEARCH.md. Left out: his contact details (on his own pages; by choice); the Forbes 1997 "Orson Welles of software" line and a reported 1978 IBM meeting (no primary source); Google Scholar counts; the Computer Lib cover image (copyright); any award, quotation or date not in the sources.

## llms-full.txt
# Ted Nelson (fan site)

## The design bar
# The house design bar (AWE)

Every page AWE ships is judged against this. It is the frontend-design skill's
standard plus the network's own rules. Read it before designing; re-read it
before shipping.

## Ground the design in the subject

Identify the subject, the audience, and the page's primary job before drawing
anything. The industry, its materials and its vernacular are where distinctive
choices come from. Build with the site's real content and knowledge base, never
lorem ipsum, never invented claims the site cannot back.

## Principles

- The hero opens with the most characteristic thing in the subject's world, in
the most appropriate form: a headline, an image, a demo, a live moment. The
"big number, small label, gradient accent" hero is the default; only use it if
it is truly the best option.
- Typography carries the personality. One family, or two clearly distinct
families. Choose them for this brief, not the families you reach for on every
project. Set a real type scale with intentional weights and spacing. Body line
length under 80 characters; serif body gets a little more line-height.
- Avoid the commonest tells of a generated page: a single accented word in a
headline; ALL-CAPS labels; unnecessary eyebrow labels above content; numbered
01/02/03 markers on content that is not a sequence; arrows appended to links.
- Visual structure is information. Borders, rules, numbering and dividers
encode something about the content; they are not decoration.
- Motion: one orchestrated moment at most. No fade-and-slide on every section.
Motion that answers a person's action is welcome.
- Copy is design content. Plain verbs, sentence case, active voice, no filler.
A button says what happens: "Book a walkthrough", not "Submit".

## The looks that read as AI defaults (do not spend freedom on these)

1. Warm cream background near #F4F1EA with a high-contrast serif display and a
terracotta accent near #D97757.
2. Near-black background with a single acid-green or vermilion accent.
3. Broadsheet layout: hairline rules, zero radius, dense newspaper columns.
4. The SaaS card kit: identical rounded cards, one radius everywhere, the same
soft grey shadow under each, gradient washes as decoration.
5. Template chrome: tracked-out ALL-CAPS eyebrows, meta strings joined with
middle dots, "WORD — fragment" labels, tinted near-black (#0B0B0B) as black,
monospace for small labels, "→" on link text.

If the brief pins a direction, follow it. Where it leaves an axis free, do not
spend that freedom on one of these.

## Network rules (non-negotiable)

- No em dashes anywhere in copy. Use a comma, a colon, or a new sentence.
- Keep what the network needs on every page: the AdSense tag and ads.txt,
analytics snippets, the WholeTech promo bar and wt-stack script if the page
had them, canonical, robots, sitemap entry, the IndexNow key file.
- Keep the site's existing internal links working (nav targets, KB, act, case
studies, lessons, prompts, resources, videos, enquire). New pages may add
links; they may not drop them.
- Responsive to 360px wide, visible keyboard focus, reduced motion respected,
contrast at least 4.5:1 for body text, alt text on every meaningful image.
- One HTML file per page, self-contained CSS in a single style block (plus
Google Fonts link if used), no build step, no external JS frameworks.
- Ship only to owned domains, only through the ship step, only after a preview.

## Process (plan, review, build, critique)

1. Plan: a compact token system: 4 to 6 named colors, the typefaces and their
roles, a one-sentence layout concept with an ASCII wireframe, and 3 to 5
principles that make this page unlike any other.
2. Review the plan against the brief. Anything that reads like the generic
default for a page of this kind gets revised, and the change is written down.
3. Build to the plan. Watch CSS specificity; avoid selectors that cancel each
other on section spacing.
4. Critique: remove one accessory. Then run `awe.py check` and fix what it flags.

## What the Des score rewards (wholetech.com/alldomains)

Designed webfont family beyond Inter, Space Grotesk, JetBrains Mono, Roboto,
Open Sans (or a serif family in the CSS) scores 70; WT-Skins kit 55; stock fonts
30; the generic dark AI template 11. Section richness adds points: sources page
with 10+ cited links, a videos page with 6+ embeds, a live page, news items, a
FAQ with 4+ entries, a form. Real traffic adds the rest. Design for the reader,
and the score follows.
