Print PublicationsOptical Poetry: The Life and Work of Oskar Fischingerby William MoritzMoritz enjoyed decades of friendship with Elfriede Fischinger and worked closely with her to bring the work of her late husband to a wider audience. His personal quest culminated with the publication of Optical Poetry, the first critical biography of legendary painter and experimental filmmaker Oskar Fischinger. Fischinger’s pioneering work in Visual Music was instrumental in shaping animation into a cinematic art form inspiring animators to pursue its creative potential. iota began working with Dr. Moritz in 1997, providing support that enabled him to pursue his lifelong mission to document and record the expansive history and aesthetics of Visual Music, an effort that eventually resulted in the publication of Optical Poetry.

My camera is an inner camera which doesn't do very well when it points out at external
reality. I'm trying to focus on something and bring it back alive from the uncharted
areas of the inner image, inner space.
