Carl Malamud was the founder of the Internet Multicasting Service, the nonprofit group known for creating the first Internet radio station, for putting the SEC's EDGAR database on-line, and for creating the Internet 1996 World Exposition.

Carl is the author of eight books, including Exploring the Internet. His most recent book, A World's Fair, features a foreword by the Dalai Lama and an afterword by Laurie Anderson. He was a visiting professor at the MIT Media Laboratory and was the former chairman of the Internet Software Consortium. He also was the co-founder of Invisible Worlds.

Carl and his partner webchick now work at media.org running a factory, rescuing sites, and engaging in periodic jam sessions. Before founding media.org, they worked together for five years through a variety of transformations.
