Abstract
The INTERACT'90 Conference took place in Cambridge, England from August 27--30, 1990. For the benefit of those who were unable to attend, an overview of the conference follows. This is quite limited in scope since there were generally five parallel sessions at any time, which included verbal paper presentations, visual presentations, panels, demonstrations, and videos. There were two sites, at Robinson and Selwyn Colleges. I mostly went to talks at the Selwyn Site. There was a large tent where visual presentations were given at the Robinson site, and the very high temperatures in the tent kept me from going back after my first visit to it, which undoubtedly meant I missed many interesting presentations.
