Our History
InterAccess was incorporated in 1983 as a non-profit, artist-run access centre, under the name Toronto Community Videotex. It provided artists with access to the Telidon system, a two-way interactive videotex system now lauded as "the Internet before its time." The name change in 1987 reflected a subsequent shift in emphasis on access to Macintosh-based graphics, multimedia production and a dial-up network known as Matrix.
