Algorithm of Manfred Mohr

Manfred Mohr, a pioneer of digital art, was among the first to embrace computers as a medium for artistic production in the 20th century. His work evolved significantly in the late 1960s after meeting Pierre Barbaud, a key figure in computer-based composition. By 1971, Mohr's computer-generated drawings were showcased in a solo exhibition at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. This text compilation features essays, letters, and interviews from 1963 to 1979, highlighting Mohr's early engagement with computer technology and the evolving discourse in the art world.
