This study takes as a starting point Roy Ascott's essay 'Behaviourist Art and the Cybernetic Vision' (1966) and uses it to define a field of Behaviourist art from the period 1945-1975. Kate Sloan establishes the role of the cybernetic concept of feedback as a defining factor in understanding works of art as behavioural, expanded well beyond the perimeters of what we consider cybernetic art. The book also demonstrates how light, as a behavioural trigger, informed several discrete areas of art making, from cybernetic art to countercultural light shows and behaviourist architectures.
The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, technology studies, music history, architectural history, and design history.
