| Summary |
16mm 1.37:1 color sound, 6:40 minutes; music _Django_ by John Lewis, played by the Modern Jass Quartet; courtesy of Angeline Pike, Creative Film Society. _Gyromorphosis_ strives to bring into actuality the inherent kinetic qualities seen in the construction-sculpture of Constant Nieuwenhuys of Amsterdam. To realize [sic] this aim I have put into motion, one by one, pieces of this sculpture and, with colored lighting, filmed them in various detail, overlaying the images on the film as they appear and disappear. In this way I have hoped to produce sensations of acceleration and suspension which are suggested to me by the sculpture itself. - _Hy Hirsh_ |
