Detailing the potential for expression in music, art, philosophy, and more with the aid of computer technology, an exploration of digitally enhanced language, compositions, and creations discusses their implications and aesthetics.

Contends that the computer will influence the patterns of creativity more profoundly than imagined, not only manipulating existing themes but contributing their own. Traces the evolution of structure in language, Western music, and abstract painting, and shows how computers are the obvious and next step for it all. A companion music compact disc is also available. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
