IN THE DAYS BEFORE DIGITAL
Historical Birthdays

Oskar Fischinger
22 June 1900 – 31 January 1967

German-American born painter, filmmaker and abstract animator; notable for creating abstract musical animation many decades before the appearance of computer graphics and music videos.

He invented several tools and techniques for special effects as well as creating special effects for Fritz Lang's 1929 Woman in the Moon and influenced Disney's Fantasia.

Here we see the film he made in 1938 titled “Optical Poem”, an abstract piece of stop-motion history. The familiar music is Franz Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2.

While it might be relatively simple to manipulate a shape in a computer in todays day and age, Fischinger’s technique was decidedly more low tech. Using bits of paper and fishing line, he individually photographed each frame, somehow doing it all in sync with Liszt’s composition.

Think of the hours of mind-numbing work that must have entailed - lightweight pieces suspended by thin lines and thus prone to sway he had to make sure each piece was steady before making his exposure. Oskar used a broomstick with a feather attached at the end as a ‘steadier’.

What a phenomenal achievement in such a world that is mind boggling to imagine in 2018.

Today would have been Oskar’s 118th Birthday!

Wonder what brilliant minds will be uncovered in the next 118 years..?
