"This volume of essays is the happy result of contacts and collaborations established during the three years devoted to the preparation of 'Cybernetic Serendipity'. Cybernetic Serendipity was an exhibition mounted at the Institute of
Contemporary Arts in the summer of 1968, which dealt with the relationship of the computer and the arts. The
exhibition, like this book. was concerned with the exploration and demonstration of connexions between creativity
and technology (and cybernetics in particular), the links between scientific or mathematical approaches, intuitions,
and the more irrational and oblique urges associated with the making of music, art and poetry. The title itself was
intended to convey the fact that through the use of cybernetic devices we have made many fortunate discoveries for
the arts. "-page 11.
