Kasahara Movie Soundtracks for SJCC, 1969
Scope and Contents
This audio recording is the soundtrack for a film about the General Circulation Model (GCM). From the introduction: "This is a movie of weather that never happened, at least not in the real atmosphere. It shows changing sea-level pressure patterns and hypothetical clouds -- computer-generated weather that happened only in the CDC 6600 computer at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado." The soundtrack includes two takes of the same script. There are several GCM films in the UCAR Information Office collection, and it is unclear which GCM film this soundtrack was intended to accompany. The audio recording was labeled "Kasahara Movie Soundtracks for SJCC." The film may have been intended for the Spring Joint Conference on Computing (SJCC).
