(#6) Agency for Instructional Technology logo history (1968-2015) (UPDATED)

[@teresapflaumer5717]

My favorite AIT logo is the 1979-80 filmed version of the "spinning North America", alternate narrator (saxophone instead of synthesizer) 11:26. The fast version of this logo was a surprise (I have never seen it but I really like it). 11:20

Yeah, blink & you'll miss it. 😅

Those old synth sounds, adore them so much!!

[@robh7445]

I still can't understand where they got the weird characters ]|T. That and when the intro would announce "the following is from a national instructional television series" it made it sound like it was a generic explanation (note my lowercase). It wasn't apparently until later when they would say "the following is from National Instruction Television. NIT".

@ 18:32 This one of my favorite pick logo because it pretended in the year 1991.

Facts 💯%

[@coreyharrigan1293]

When I was 10 years old in late night spring of April 1998 on public television on thirteen wnet.

[@C-Midori]

Whoa now? They were still around until 2015? Impressive.

[@belstar1128]

Why did they quit in 2015.

[@russiaman9407]

They stopped making programs in 2011, but it was officially disestablished in 2015.

I liked the 79 version.

[@ghanaking5255]

I think you meant Agency for Instructional Television / Technology, but all the same. Nice logo history. 👌

[@Noone-qw2xs]

We're locked 🔒 in a program for the mindset. Prison for the mind. I grew up under this?!!

[@tyrese3745]

I wonder if Thirteen (WNET) had a production hand in Thinkabout.

[@theartoftimelapsemore424]

I highly doubt that; according to IMDb: Thinkabout (1979-1980) production companies: Access Television (Alberta) Educational Film Center KERA Dallas KETC KOCE Kicking Horse Productions Ltd. South Carolina ETV TVO The Film Works Utah Board of Education Distributed by: Agency for Instructional Technology (called the Agency for Instructional Television at the time)

[@tyrese3745]

@@theartoftimelapsemore424 So it never aired on Thirteen?

[@theartoftimelapsemore424]

@@tyrese3745 Well, Thinkabout was a classroom program, so it was most likely never shown on some TV stations. At best, the aforementioned ones were the ones who showed the program.
