This double issue of bit international, edited in 1969 by Vera Horvat-Pintarić, is on visual and concrete poetry, with Max Bense among its six authors. In “Computopoema,” Siegfried J. Schmidt starts from poems that G. Stickel produced on an IBM computer in Darmstadt and dates the first computer texts to Theo Lutz. Željko Bujas reports on the first computer analyses of Croatian literary texts. Leslie Mezei’s computer graphic Babel (1967) illustrates Horvat-Pintarić’s essay “The Word-Image.”
