dc.description.abstract	This paper reproduces an appendix of a doctoral thesis proposal that describes a language based on actor semantics designed especially for animation. The system described herein is built upon MacLisp and is also compatible with Lisp-Logo. The system was implemented to serve two functions: to provide a base system for the knowledge-based animation system which is described in Working Paper 119 (or Logo WP 47) and to experiment with various extensions of Logo to improve its value as an educational tool.	en
