This is the first full-length study about the British artist Roy
Ascott, one of the first cybernetic artists, with a career spanning
seven decades to date. The book focuses on his early career,
exploring the evolution of his early interests in communication in
the context of the rich overlaps between art, science and
engineering in Britain during the 1950s and 1960s. The first part
of the book looks at Ascott's training and early work. The second
park looks solely at Groundcourse, Ascott's extraordinary
pedagogical model for visual arts and cybernetics which used an
integrative and systems-based model, drawing in behaviourism,
analogue machines, performance and games. Using hitherto
unpublished photographs and documents, this book will establish a
more prominent place for cybernetics in post-war British art.
