Vikram Chandra "Geek Sublime"

http://www.politics-prose.com/event/b...

This illuminating essay collection by the author of the award-winning novel Sacred Games is a thought-provoking exploration of another type of writing: computer coding. A longtime programmer, Chandra uses his parallel experiences to open up terms like “elegance,” considering how beauty works in both the artistic and technological realms and finding unsuspected connections between them.
