"Ed's Dendrite"

How Strange !

Just been scanning some old boxes, and there are a couple of professionally produces slides marked "ACM 1983 SIGGRAPH"

Some googling reveals that this refers to SIGGRAPH '83: Proceedings of the 10th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques

July 25th-29th, 1983.
This website has an archive, and actually shows and names this image.

And that website reveals that this image was computer generated, and submitted as a physical print to the event.  I guess that that print was then photographed to create a master slide...which was then duplicated.  I have one of those duplicate slides....and have digitised it so that it can be shared via computer.  How rare.
