Psychedelic 1930's BING CROSBY video



Uploaded by: robertwmartens
Video Description:
If you think this "video" is from a 1960's light show, or a New Age meditation tape, think again. These animated patterns were filmed in the late 1930's to accompany a song by BING CROSBY. No credits exist except for the song title "When the Organ Played Oh Promise Me" which was recorded by Bing in 1937. Could this have been influenced by the work of Oskar Fischinger? How was it made? And how was it meant to be shown -in a movie theater, or projected onto a dance floor? Your feedback is welcome! From my late grandfather's movie collection - to see more curious films, visit "GRANDPA'S PICTURE PARTY" at http://www.webnik.com/homemovies .

This really is quite fantastic. Thank you for making it available!
By the way, when will you be posting 'A Christmas Dream'? I watched the clips over at your site and the stop motion animation by Karel Zeman & Hermina Tyrlova is absolutely beautiful!

This reminds me strongly of Fischinger as well - particularly his melted-wax stop-motion stuff. This is more colorful than those films though. Totally amazing!!!! My favorite animation is all from the 1930's and this is one of the best I've ever seen. Thanks SO much for sharing this bit of found film, I adore it.

This must have been done with a optical process, on film, as an accompanyment to the music. "Music video" was not invented by Mtv; the idea of a visual intepretation of music dates back practically to the invention of film.

the 'organ' in the title might partly be a reference to the clavilux which was invented around this time - but this doesn't look like clavilux projections.

This could have been from 1929's "King of Jazz", a musical filmed in an early form of Technicolor. God bless.

Actually this reminds me alot of some of Norman McLaren's stuff. The very slow crossfades from one painting to the next brings to mind some of his techniques tho i cant quite remember which films. This is beautiful!!

It is the same method as Norman Mclarens 'chain of mixes' which he used on La poulette grise etc. and its about the right time but it's not like his style, still great to see though. Cheers Mike

Stunning! I wonder if it had any impact on latter lightshows or if it was known by the artists of the 60s.
