[Chicago] Good readings on the history of computing

[Jaideep Singh]

I don't know if this would be relevant to the subject but
http://natureofcode.com/book/ is a pretty good read. Interesting topics
ranging from real-world physics, using physics libraries (such as JBox2D),
cellular automata, flocking/following behavior, and neural
networking.Highly recommended for anyone interested in
motion/physics/programmable
art/games/etc.
