Oskar Fischinger was actually not a painter. He was a movie producer. This picture is part of a motion picture that was played along with Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 3. The picture changed, at a rate of 24 frames a second, along with the music. Different moods might have caused the different colors, and elaborate runs might have caused the swirls. I don't really know because I have never seen the motion picture by Fischinger. I just thought it was really interesting how he had wanted to find a way to mix music and painting together in art. Apparently, he did it to find a way to escape the factory-like production of Hollywood.
