More about the book

Exploring the intersection of art and technology, the book recounts the development of Art1, a pioneering computer program created in 1968 at the University of New Mexico. Driven by Richard Williams and inspired by Charles Mattox, this initiative aimed to unify the seemingly disparate worlds of avant-garde art and complex scientific theories. Frederick Hammersley’s prolific output using Art1 is highlighted, alongside 50 illustrations by notable artists. Interviews with key figures provide insight into Art1's significant influence on early digital creativity and its lasting legacy.
