With the Rockband "The Iceni" and NN
Five men in white clothing floating against a black background. And in the split screen above the torso of a man. Below the lower body of the dancing girl from the "dance loop".
More complicated is "Up / Down", that recorded alternately in slow motion and normal recording five male dancers and a female dancer. The image is divided horizontal in the middle so that the body of a man can be combined with the one of the girl. Then the camera is rotatet around the axis and in a different order again combined shots follow.

Being from the era, I suspect this is one of the pieces of "art" created while the artist(s) was stoned or tripping on acid, and meant to be appreciated under the same influence. I now find it hard to believe we liked this kind of stuff. Rather nonsensical really.

Just a heads up: to get rid of the streaks on the MPEG2 file, de-interlace the video.
For instance the VLC player can do it while you watch the film, or you can use the freeware program "MPEG streamclip" to de-interlace it and save it to a new file.

I add might only that now is the time on Sprockets when we dance. "Why does Herr K Go Amok?" Now we know.

I love this one
If you re a freak for weird memorabilia you should check it out
I ll rate it 4 stars for the hypnotic imagery and the rebel amateur attitude

Subject: Dancing with a Difference
Experimental German film featuring people dancing to techno/noise music. Bizarre camera angles and tricks are experimented with, resulting in a moderately strange, trippy experience, though nothing as disturbing as The Buckskin Kid. The music really carries this one, having a bit more structure and interest than most techno/noise stuff.
Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: **. Weirdness: ****. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ****.
