The document summarizes an exhibition held at the Jewish Museum in Washington D.C. in September-November 1970 called "Software – Information Technology: Its New Meaning for Art". It featured early works exploring the intersection of software, information technology, and art by pioneers like Woodman/Nelson, Negroponte, and Levine. However, the exhibition was reportedly a "disaster" as the computers did not work properly and gerbils in their cages attacked each other, leading to financial issues for the museum and the director being dismissed.
