4D+ Art: Reading List

These texts (along with Flatland) provide a fundamental introduction to the discipline. Henderson's book has been the go-to art historical resource going on a couple of decades, now. A new chapter in the latest printing adds much needed material. The Fourth Dimension... contains excellent research and approaches 4D+ primarily through the lens of the epistemological, which is a quarter of the story. Mueller's Elements... is as far as I know the first 4D primer. The linking of art & design in the text I am not down with, and I'm not down with the author's basic definition of 4D for art (Time). Yet, the Elements... is a great first classroom text, very user friendly for teachers and students. I'm a big fan of the manifesto. Rudy Rucker is a unique figure and to my mind just the best ambassador for the discipline.
