Tusalava, Len Lye, 1929

Tusalava was originally performed with live accompaniment composed by Jack Ellit. Unfortunately, the original score was lost. Many people have stepped in to fill that void, and I can think of several others who would do an amazing job. In my mind, I am looking at them pointedly right now, in a "You. Do this thing at the Trylon" kind of way.

I do think that Youtube user pukunu1 did a mighty decent job here.

Harpya, Raoul Servais, 1979

Rainbow Dance, Len Lye 1936

I couldn't find a version as properly vividly colored as the original, which is quite bright. It must have been electrifying in 1936.

OH SPEAKING OF LEN LYE AND STUFF - I just saw Pip Chodorov's Free Radicals, which features Lye (his 1958 short is featured in full and gives the doc its title)Robert Breer, Stan Brakhage, Stan Vanderbeek, Hans Richter, and more fully awesome individuals. Now heads up - I really genuinely love this stuff. So fair warning; you might be in for more of this sort of thing, because I'm excited.
