For those into their square pusher and similar dance artists will be amazed by this film I expect. The timed rhythm of the mosaic tiles as they collide and move around the screen creates a trance like visual display that would on its own not be the most captivating display...but the sound track to this short film is what makes it so amazing to me.

As the dots collide, expand and merge there is a timed beat rhythm that builds throughout and creates a soundtrack that would not be out of place in many a modern club. Created by scratching directly onto the film the soundtrack combined with the visuals are amazing in consideration of the fact that this was made in the 60's

I hate to say it , but this is my least fav McLaren of films , he walks on and places a small white ball in the centre of the screen , it slowly darts off and when it hits the sides of the screen it divides (with a great static sound though) , each time it divides and the divisions divide etc , you get the picture. Dont get me wrong on a good day I like it , but it cold be a few minutes shorter , minor quibbles but its not one of his best , but even that makes it head and shoulders above a large part of the animation genre. It is a grander version of the old Grandstand Bat and Ball video game none the less.
