Computers and Creativity, Revised Edition explores the many ways people use computers to create software, invent new machines, and express themselves through words, music, graphic art, and multimedia. This updated, full-color resource also explains how computers enable people to collaborate over space and time on a scale never before possible without the use of professional intermediaries. Additionally, it examines the ways in which computer-enabled creativity causes us to rethink copyright and patent law, providing legal protection for the creative works of both artists and inventors.
