This film is inspired by the architecture of the M+ Museum in Hong Kong, questioning the conventional definition of a museum as such by taking it out of its context and regarding it as a pure object. A complex interplay of geometrical forms, inspired by the interior of the Hong Kong museum building, refers to the elementary structures that determine our material world.

We would not be surprised if this multiple-award winning, internationally acclaimed, and extremely charming film were to be found in an encyclopaedia under the entry “colourful”. Protean shapes in dynamic motion visualise the rhythm of a lively piece of music, leaping like fireworks from the textured black background and animating the screen.

A contemporary answer to the avant-garde experiments of the 20th century. Once, artists like Oskar Fischinger drew graphic elements on the optical soundtrack of film strips to produce unexpected tones. Max Hattler turns the whole image into an optical soundtrack that directly translates into audio. Abstract movement becomes noise. What you hear is what you see.
