Normally physbase and logbase point to the same memory. If You
set one of them to another screen memory then what you see is
shown from Physbase() and what You draw (VDI etc.) is drawn to
Logbase(). That can be used for animation: Show one screen, draw
the next image to another, then flip the Screens.
