       The free ebook "Computer Graphics and Computer Animation: A Retrospective Overview" is excellent:https://ohiostate.pressbooks.pub/graphicshistoryI'm glad I found it as I don't know much about the history of these fields. The book covers a really wide range of topics in technology, research, industry, applications, and art.#graphics #cgi #retrocomputing
