Here’s a link to a 1985 USENIX paper describing a Unix window system for LucasFilm https://archive.org/details/1985-proceedings-summer-portland (page 393) related to the #EditDroid.

Despite the marketing material, this is what an actual EditDroid setup looked like in practice. Note the array of laserdisc players in the rack.
