Description

The Stuttgart philosopher Max Bense founded the literary journal augenblick in 1955, with Elisabeth Walther as managing editor, and it ran until the end of 1961, when it suspended publication for financial reasons. The first issue from its own press in Siegen, for October–December 1959, printed Theo Lutz’s “Stochastische Texte,” sentences generated at random on the ZUSE Z 22 computer at the Technische Hochschule Stuttgart.
