Quoting Ken Turner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
programming is - I agree just programming.
Historically it's mathematics or electrical engineering. I find "computer science" far too grand a name. It's just hacking. It's certainly not art, art is not functional and code cannot be faked.
Societies see themselves in terms of their enabling technologies (see Bolter's "Turing's Man"). Our enabling technology is computing machinery. So artists will quite naturally wonder whether code is art and art is code, and writers will get some mileage from this.
