Viking Eggeling - Symphonie Diagonale - 1921

This is an early surrealist video. It's trippy! Well, actually, it's kind of dull. But I like it.

It's trippy. But it's a 1921 kind of trippy.

@audreyhorne it's Visual Music that's what it is.

it HAS to be a practical joke, right??

This is actually part of the abstract animation movement. While some abstract animation directors such as Hans Richter went on to participate in later film movements such as dadaism, this came before surrealist film making had even began.

this is not a surrealist film ,this is the early abstract movie of the German avant-garde. :)
