>The EB comments that stereoscopy had to wait on photography, as no artist could contrive the parallactic views. Are there any exceptions?
I have seen several hand-drawn stereograms, including a hand-drawn random dot stereogram of a cube, and a japanese print pattern of a style at least 100 years old (I don't know whether this particular print is that old) that produces a credible foreground-background image of a pattern floating above a field of bamboo when looked at with the eyes held deliberately out of focus.
I think that in a computer history context the original question was about a machine-human interactive interface, not a picture or even a movie.
