A Major Step Forward: The Computer Arts Society and Event One
摘要
This chapter describes the origins of the Computer Arts Society, the first practitioner-led group of its kind in the UK and details the support, networking and exhibition opportunities it provided for like-minded individuals. The CAS aims came together in 1969 with Event One, their first public exhibition, which presented a topic and style of artwork that was outside the mainstream of British art at this time. Event One heralded the collaborative, cross-disciplinary nature of early British computer arts.
