Type: Bookby - Steven Holtzman Blending ideas from music, computing, art, and philosophy, with biographical and historical anecdotes and a thread of mysticism, Steven Holtzman gives us new ways to think about the integration of computers into the creative process. He shows how computers will change the way we create, and reveals the exciting potential for entirely new forms of expression. Running throughout the book are episodes from Holtzman's own sometimes mystical journey in search of the personal aesthetic he presents. "This well-written, erudite romp through several intellectual traditions is reminiscent of Douglas Hofstader's Gödel, Escher, Bach. I have a weakness for grand convergent visions, and Steven Holtzman took me for quite a ride." - Jim Gasperini, WIRED - 79 illus., 16 color - paper HOLGP
