Set to a wonderfully eclectic Eldon Rathburn jazz soundtrack, this could almost start off as the "liquorice allsort" suite - especially the small round, bobbly, ones! Thereafter, Norman McLaren and Evelyn Lambart return to his earlier technique of applying the colour directly onto the film delivering frequently symmetrical and largely abstracts blobs and shapes of colour that accompany the score but don't exactly tally with it. They are not always in an obvious synch with each other but they were with me. I did enjoy this.
