an introduction to sophie

Sophie, the Institute's first piece of software, is designed for reading and writing next-generation electronic books. Sophie will facilitate the easy construction of documents that are designed to live on the network and to use multimedia and time in ways that are currently difficult, if not impossible. Here is a 13-page PDF explaining exactly what Sophie is, the problems that it was created to solve, and what it will do. An HTML version of this will be arriving shortly. And here is a 5-page PDF that explains Sophie's pedigree: a quick history of the ideas and software that informed Sophie's design.
