A tribute

To New Zealand artist LEN LYE, whose animations I have recently discovered and find incredibly genius and want to watch them over and over again. There are plenty on YouTube, but not in the best condition (they’re better projected if you can find copies). But here’s one of the best condition on the ‘Tube – this one was created by scratching into the film, so as you can see was handled by an absolute master of animation. All of his films are upbeat and vibrant. I hope you’ll enjoy Free Radicals:
