Description

An 'op art' contemporary abstract film which was programmed on a digital computer and then optically printed, it explores the graphic permutations of a simple, Persian-like pattern. The film represents an effort to harness the creative potential of the electronic digital computer through the concrete, non-literal form of motion pictures. 'The technique is fascinating...a beautiful experience that will cause puzzlement and discussion.' - SCIENCE ACTIVITIES. 'A dazzling exploration of the archetypal geometric configurations that approaches déja vu...provides a deep emotional experience.' - Gene Youngblood, 'Expanded Cinema'.
