Colorful geometric figures are set in rhythmic motion. Choreographic cubes, cylinders and columns participate in an exuberant ballet that recalls the patterns created by Busby Berkeley. Within a deep blue environment, one red cube slowly drifts on a reflecting floor. Suddenly there are multiple red cubes drifting and dancing in various formations.
In Komposition in Blau there is a continuing interest in eastern mysticism and western hermetic thought. Fischinger focused the romantic drama in his compositions on mystical, contemplative and speculative-scientific icons, filling his films with non-objective figurations.
Fischinger used tight synchronization between his visual and musical soundtracks as a helpful analogy for audiences who were still somewhat astonished by abstract art. His films became widely misinterpreted as illustrations of music.
Komposition in Blau won a prize in Venice and brought him international fame.

interesting...reminds me of fantasia.
Hi, you're right. In fact Oskar Fischinger's best-known work is his sequence in Walt Disney's Fantasia, set to Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor.
great find - a beautiful example of visual music
You're right Mella, too. But you ought add that Fischinger was so furious when his abstract shapes were turned into half-seen violin bows and stylized mountain peaks for Fantasia.
