Cover of Julio Plaza and Monica Tavares, Processos criativos com os meios eletronicos: poeticas digitais (Sao Paulo: Editora Hucitec, 1998). Bookseller photograph, Estante Virtual.

This book taught a generation of Brazilian creative coders in the mid-to-late ’90s. The book investigated the technical mechanisms behind electronic image creation. The book also championed the unique qualities and potential of electronic media that it argued was becoming increasingly relevant for expressing creativity in the digital age.
