Mostly Motion Graphics Classics



Kyle Cooper, 2004







Saul Bass, 1963







James Whitney, Permutations, 1966







Len Lye, Free Radicals, 1958







Maurice Binder, 1973







Nando Costa







Norman McLaren, A Phantasy, 1952







Pablo Ferro, 1964



Ed Tannenbaum and Paul Pfeiffer

I dig the music in the Tannenbaum video. It's credited to Might Dog. Who's that? It makes me think of ESG. It kicks a a similar early 80s, New Wave funk vibe. The primitive computer graphic effects (the video dates from 1982) jive well with it. Compare this video with Paul Pfeiffer's "Live Evil" (2003).





Ed Tannenbaum, "Digital Dance", 1982
