Trade Tattoo(en)
Trade Tattoo went even further than Rainbow Dance in its manipulation of the Gasparcolor process.

Animated words and patterns combine with the live-action footage to create images as complex and multi-layered as a Cubist painting. Music was provided by the Cuban Lecuona Band. With its dynamic rhythms, the film seeks (in Lye’s words) to convey “a romanticism about the work of the everyday in all walks of life."
