‘My film talk is called The Absolute Truth of the Happiness Acid‘,’ said Lye. This acid was not LSD but the nucleic acid of DNA and his ‘absolute truth’ was in ‘the gene-pattern which contains the one and only natural truth of our being.

Chatterbox...sorry but you really need to go out and make some films of your own and when I say films I mean mimic Lyes style , play with light and wonder in its magnificence..If you are contemplating ,seriously being a film maker rather than writing innane theory, I would learn to revel in Lyes wizardry before you critique it from your 2009 context

One of the best films by one of the most important and influential animators of the 20th century. Check out his SWINGING THE LAMBETH WALK for another fine one on youtube. I wish I could get this on DVD though!
