Life magazine, 1961.
Allen Ginsberg eat your heart out - look what a computer can do. I'd like to have been in that coffee house when a 'bearded scientist' performed. Who said the Beats were gullible? Did William Burroughs know about this, and if so, did he approve? I suspect he would have done. Look not for the soul in the machine, for it couldn't dig Charlie Parker, or play bongos. It did, however, bring a whole knew meaning to the term 'automatic writing'...
More here, presumably by the same computer.
