Considering how culturally indispensable digital technology is today‎,‎ it is ironic that computer‎-generated art was attacked when it burst onto the scene in the early 1960s‎.‎ In fact‎,‎ no other twentieth‎-century art form has elicited such a negative and hostile response‎.‎ When the Machine Made Art examines the cultural and critical response to computer art‎,‎ or what we refer to today as digital art‎.‎ Tracing the heated debates between art and science‎,‎ the societal anxiety over nascent computer technology‎,‎ and the myths and philosophies surrounding digital computation‎,‎ Taylor is able to identify the destabilizing forces that shape and eventually fragment the computer art movement‎.‎
