I haven't seen this video in 20 years (at the Enoch Pratt of all places...) and was completely amazed that it was made in 1924. It probably helped that I was listening to Kraftwerk's Computer World as I watched it of course. . Eggeling, who was sort of a fringe DaDaist (!), died only a week after it's first showing in 1925, and sadly never got to see it's popularity. in it's day it was pretty radical.
Unfortunately this version has awful music and definitely makes me know i have to do a mash-up with Computer World in the next few days...
