• Video of euqinacèM

  euqinacèM is a peculiar version of "Ballet Mécanique" (1923–24), "a Dadaist post-Cubist art film conceived, written, and co-directed by the artist Fernand Léger in collaboration with the filmmaker Dudley Murphy" (Wikipedia). euqinacèM plays "Ballet Mécanique" in reverse -- from its last frame to its first -- and in fast motion: 64.58 frames per second. Finally, as a soundtrack, I applied my "GoHachi" (eidon.bandcamp.com/track/gohachi).
  
  I found the result truly surprising! Especially when you consider that I composed the music without considering the use I ended up making of it.
  
  Enjoy!

• Lichtspiel Opus 1.74

  • 
  • 
  This is my second Dada experiment, following "euqinacèM" that I published a few months ago. The video is Walther Ruttmann's "Lichtspiel Opus 1", which has been sped up to match my track "Seventy-Four" (eidon.bandcamp.com/track/seventy-four).
  
  Ruttman's first Opus was created between 1919 and 1921, and is the "oldest fully abstract motion picture known to survive, using only animated geometric forms, arranged and shown without reference to any representational imagery" (M. Betancourt, "Walther Ruttmann's Lichtspiel Films". Cinegraphic. Cited by Wikipedia).
  
  The geometrical shapes in Léger and Murphy's "Ballet Mécanique" clearly owe to Ruttman's. For a strange kind of serendipitous magical audiovisual xenochrony, both videos appear to be in synch with my tracks, despite the fact that the decision to use them as soundtracks came to me long after I had composed them. In sooth, magic does exist!So here's to you my Klang- und Lichtspiel. I hope you'll like it!
