Poem Field is the name of a series of 8 computer-generated animations by Stan Vanderbeek and Ken Knowlton in 1964-1967.[1] The animations were programmed in a language called Beflix (short for "Bell Flicks"), which was developed by Knowlton.[2]
It is notable as a feature of one of the earlier SIGGRAPH conferences.
