Rhythmus 94 / Rhythm 94

Synopsis
This film is a musical piece. The sounds, their pitches, their relationships to one another, and especially the (poly)rhythmic structures are to be read as a score for the organization and the multiple overlaying of images and vice versa. Image and sound become one; they have grown together, have been invented for one another. A perfect, homogenous piece of “Visual Music”. (T. R.)
