About this work

Manfred Linder made a drawing in 1973 using a computer. It wasn’t a sketch on paper with a pencil. He wrote code in FORTRAN instead. A machine with a pen followed his instructions to draw on paper. Linder used a Siemens 4004/G computer and a small plotter. He worked at a university computer center. This drawing was part of a 1973 art show in Edinburgh. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
