Abstract:
The education and support of the British pioneers of computer based arts with particular reference to the major role played by art schools 1960-70 and the prominence of the artist-run Computer Arts Society. The complexity and rarity of computers meant that artforms based around them were specialised and highly dependent upon support and funding to exist.
