Computer Programming:
“As I prepared ‘Ideas and Integrities’ for publication, I redicovered ‘Total Thinking’ which I had written at Black Mountain College, in 1949, prior to the electronic computer’s present massive development and the latter’s swiftly ‘fedback’ popularization of Professor Norbert Wiener’s cybernetics-born language of 1948. I had not read ‘Cybernetics’ when I wrote ‘Ideas and Integrities,’ and I publish it now because its analytical epistemology unexpectedly provides a broad view of computer programming conceptions and experimental strategies which embrace potentially powerful forecasting capabilities.”
(Above note presumably prepared at time of publication of IDEAS & INTEGRITIES, 1963.)
