Description

Re:Voir’s 2023 set of films by the experimental filmmaker Stan VanDerBeek closes with Computer Generation, a volume made up mostly of his computer films. Five are Poemfields, made with the computer scientist Ken Knowlton at Bell Labs between 1966 and 1971, Poemfield No. 7 among them. Who Ho Ray was filmed from a computer system that turned sounds into patterns, and Richard Weinberg programmed Euclidean Illusions (1980) while VanDerBeek was artist in residence at NASA in Houston. A 1972 television documentary, The Computer Generation, is included as a bonus.
