ANTIC Interview 120 – Sandy Dwiggins, AtariLab manuals

Sandy Dwiggins, AtariLab manuals

Sandy Dwiggins wrote the manuals for AtariLab – both the light and temperature modules – while she was an adjunct professor at Dickinson College, teaching Film Studies. She worked closely with Priscilla Laws, whom I previously interviewed.

This interview took place on October 14, 2015.

Teaser quote:

“She [Priscilla Laws] found these two programmers who only came out at night and were barefoot all the time … they didn’t take showers, they didn’t take baths, they didn’t do anything except sit in their nest.”
