Though I did really quite enjoy this, I haven't the faintest idea how I might describe it to anyone else. Maurice Blackburn provides a saxophone-based score for what is an hybrid of the abstract and the identifiable. There are creatures, even vague human shapes but for the most part this is a fun, frequently symmetrical, animation that moves from the random to the perfectly defined in the most natural way. Norman McLaren's imagination and animation skills are creative, vivid and groundbreaking and even if I hadn't a clue as to what, if anything, I was being exposed to here - I did like it. Definitely worth seven minutes of your time.
