The Utopia Project aimed to develop a computer system for skilled graphic workers in Scandinavia. It pioneered Participatory Design approaches to computers, such as collaborative mockups and what became later known as dirty prototyping. This is an excerpt from the documentary Computers in Context by California Newsreel, which features similar projects developed in Scandinavia around the same time. http://www.users.interport.net/n/e/newsreel/films/computer.htm
