    ““Gödel, Escher, Bach” (pub. 1979) proposes a specific set of values to be applied to computing in the rising Information Age. Those values are centered around beauty, discovery, mathematics, and most importantly play. The book is a delightful game about the delightful games written into reality, and identifies computing as a form of music.”
