The thing I'm always struck by with these kinds of interviews is just how mundane it really was. We tend to ascribe this sort of legendary status in retrospect to projects like this that makes it seem like it was an elite group of techno wizards in Valhalla who spent their life's effort on it. But very very rarely is anyone thinking "this is the most groundbreaking revolutionary work ever achieved that will be adored by millions for generations" at the time, it's just regular joes showing up to the office and saying "yeah this was a thing I worked on for a year back in the 90s".
