N2 - Sputnik shock, Cold War, social realism. In the cybernetic laboratories of the Soviet Union, calculating machines rattle and calculate landings on the moon - East and West are in a race for space travel. At the same time, computer art was being created, on whose basic ideas today's computer animations are also based. Under the leadership of Nikolai Konstantinov, mathematicians decided to simulate the gait of a cat with the help of the BESM-4 computer and to record every small change on paper. This first testimony of comupter art in the Soviet Union is printed in the book as a facsimile.
