This black-and-white abstract animated short film, produced in 1926, not only dispenses with dialogue but also lacks any background music whatsoever. In a full six minutes of silence, you will descend into a fantastical, ever-spinning and transforming spiral world. Concentric rings rotating in opposite directions resemble roses slowly blooming. Bold or gentle abstract geometric shapes, shifting and evolving through slow-moving black-and-white lines, construct a dazzling alternate-dimensional world. As early as the 1920s, this highly experimental abstract film offered audiences a refreshingly novel experience. German director Oskar Fischinger, aiming to achieve the dramatic visual effect of dynamic abstract geometry, built his own wax-slicing machine and invented the "Wax Slicing Machine" technique. This work is one of the many abstract animations he created between 1922 and 1926.
