“PINBALL is an experimental animated film of moving abstract paintings which I painted and animated during the past year with a digital camera. The film visualizes my interpretation of George Antheil’s 1952 revision of ‘Ballet Mecanique’ using trigger-fast cutting, painted imagery, and sound effects. It might be described as ‘visual music’ . . . my aim was to make an artwork which is original, fast, and intense. Let loose from narrative confines, I was exploring the nature of time, rhythm, and the abstraction of image and sound.” —Suzan Pitt
