Lloyd Sumner (1943–1996) was a computer art pioneer who began making art in 1964 at the University of Virginia using a Burroughs B5500 mainframe and a CalComp 565 drum plotter.
In 1968, he published "Computer Art and Human Response", the first monograph by a computer artist, and exhibited at landmark shows including Cybernetic Serendipity in London and Tendencies 5 in Zagreb.
Then, in November 1971, Sumner set out from Charlottesville, Virginia on a bicycle. Over the next three and a half years, he pedaled approximately 28,478 miles across five continents, funding the trip by selling his computer art prints and lecturing on the new medium.
He encountered a rogue elephant in Thailand, consulted a witch doctor in Jakarta, rode an ostrich in South Africa, and cycled across the Nullarbor Plain in Australia. He documented the journey in his 1978 book "The Long Ride".
