Kineformy / Cineforms - Andrzej Pawlowski (1957)

[icanseeyourprivacy]

Andrzej Pawłowski's 1957 experimental film Kineformy (Cineforms) consisted of projecting moving abstract models onto a screen using a special image-distorting lens. Pawlowski devised a light machine with two crank-like handles to move the models and the lenses. The light, passing through the lenses, distorted the forms, resulting in a series of very complex images—wispy smoke, diaphanous curtains, passing ghosts and then suddenly solid organic forms. This light performance was then filmed.
