'Feet of Song' by Erica Russel
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-S77OAxGt4
This is probably my favourite animation shown so far, along with some of the other abstract pieces. The film is full of life and vibrancy, movement is vital throughout the whole time. Music plays a huge part in creating atmosphere and the co-ordination between the animation and the beat of the music is aesthically brilliant. It shows a timeless quality that only true artists can achieve. This film is as watchable today as it was at the time of its making, and will remain entertaining for the future to anyone who enjoys abstract art and music.
There is something about art and creativity from the first half of the 20th century which was so amazing for original work and nothing seems to compare with it and for me it was so inspiring and still is.

I'm pleased you found inspiration in the work of Erica Russell. How relavent do you think the movement excercises we do in the Tuesday sessions is to more abstract work, like for example 'feet of song'.
