    There is a brief bit on University of MN's Internet Gopher at 36:40

    Nice close-up of a line drawing, "Surf the Internet / Internet Gopher".

    Looks like they've blocked Europe from accessing tpt.org, do you know of an alternative
    way to view the programme ?

    Thanks !

    Looks like TPT broke out several segments and posted them to YouTube:

    Mark McCahill: Gopher Protocol
    https://youtu.be/SLhZ_S5YUis

    Looks like it may even have some bits edited out of the full program.

    and seems to work ...
