Pixillation Art Film 1971 | AT&T Archives

"An art film by artist Lillian Schwartz and artist/scientist Ken Knowlton,who both worked at Bell Labs. Uses both conventional and early computer animation. There were 3 different versions of this film but we are not certain which version this is. Gershon Kingsley of the popular computer music group Perrey and Kingsley did the music with a Moog synthesizer. The music is a fantastic, giddy complement to the psychedelic machine images and weirdly hypnotic washes of color." via techchannel.att.com
