DescriptionThe poster promotes the floppy disks known as “Twiggy disks” (named after the 1960s fashion model) that held a suite of applications for Apple’s Lisa computer, launched in 1983. The Lisa was the first mass-market personal computer operable through a graphical user interface (GUI) but was quickly superseded by Apple’s Macintosh, launched the following year. The composition, showing a human hand and a robotic hand presenting the disk, emphasizes the combined roles of human intelligence and technology in its creation.On View
