. . . can be seen and heard here. It's an animated video conceived, hand-painted and directed by artist and filmmaker Jeff Scher.
Helpfully, John Baldwin's Desolation Row Information Service e-newsletter this morning quotes Wikipedia on Scher’s technique – “Scher’s abstract films are all approximately two and a half minutes long. He feels that this amount of time is more than enough to allow the viewer to become engaged. Although digital tools are cheaper and faster for creating film, Scher prefers vintage machinery and technologies to create his image-rich films to effectively affect the senses. He uses the rotoscopic technique which involves projecting film frames on to paper and then tracing them by hand. After this, the paper images are animated by separately shooting each sheet as a single frame.”
