*Celebrating 40 Years of Leonardo*
*Leonardo and Leonardo Music Journal Archives Now Available on JSTOR*
At the age of 40, Leonardo Da Vinci was living in Milan and just
beginning to hit his stride. He was dreaming of creating â The Gran
Cavalloâ and the painting of â The Last Supperâ was soon to be
commissioned.
On the eve of its 40th anniversary, Leonardo/ISAST, like its namesake,
is hitting its stride. The new Leonardos in our network are busy
creating the new art forms of our age. To promote and document the work
of these artists, Leonardo/ISAST publishes several journals and a book
series, co-sponsors conferences and events, sponsors an award program
and collaborates with dozens of other like-minded organizations around
the world.
Forty years ago Roy Ascott was working on his text â The Cybernetic
Stance, David Bohm was writing â On Creativity, L. Alcopley was
preparing his interview with Edgar Varese, and C.H. Waddington was
writing â New Visions of the World. These texts, along with those
written by Richard Land, Frank Malina and others established the first
volume of the Leonardo library.
