Steven Berkowitz became involved with computers in the early 1970's when he
began writing programs to translate his drawings from the visual to the aural
domain. Subsequently the world handed him a camera and a synthesizer.
He received an MFA for his Photo / Computer Graphics / Sound Installations from
Tyler School of Art in the late 1970's after doing independent research at Princeton
University and the Imperial College of Science and Technology in London. An NEA Grant was awarded for this work in 1980.
