Desmond Paul Henry's Degrees

Why Is Desmond Paul Henry Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Desmond Paul Henry was a Manchester University Lecturer and Reader in Philosophy . He was one of the first British artists to experiment with machine-generated visual effects at the time of the emerging global computer art movement of the 1960s . During this period, Henry constructed a succession of three electro-mechanical drawing machines from modified bombsight analogue computers which were employed in World War II bombers to calculate the accurate release of bombs onto their targets . Henry's machine-generated effects resemble complex versions of the abstract, curvilinear graphics which accompany Microsoft's Windows Media Player. Henry's machine-generated effects may therefore also be said to represent early examples of computer graphics: "the making of line drawingss with the aid of computers and drawing machines" .
