Colourful shapes bounced, collided and slipped across the screen as abstract forms moved in tight rhythms, set to beeps, boops and bursts of heavy metal drumming.
The screening marked the final project for students enrolled in VSAR-1060 Introduction to Elements of Art and Principles of Design.
The short films — each between 60 and 90 seconds — featured abstract, non-narrative animations made with paper, found objects and digital sound.
