synopsis: The Film-Makers' Cooperative On-Line Catalog 2004
Sharp edged chunks of color set in black, straight, often multicolored, lines piercing shapes, imrpisoning them, until they rae fragmented bits of color in black: repeat of this theme again and again until darkness prevails, but is then broken up by pure white shards and spears restoring the original dance of hard edged shapes and lines, which then begin to whirl clock-wise, intersperced with fade-outs, and then overwhelming flare of yellow.
