Thanks for posting this accurately -- without a sound track. (Frustratingly difficult to find a YouTube post of the Eggeling that doesn't have a false sound track grafted on.)

thank you:

very good that it was posted correctly without sound track ! I'm getting so upset by all the stuff people think they have to add instead of watching !

this is the only presentation in the net without sound as far as I see...

Quite similar to the visual aesthetics of light advertising in places like Times Square, also a relatively new phenomenon around the same time. Interesting....thanks for uploading this.
