"Mechanical principles" by Ralph Steiner (1933)
Ralph Steiner (1899 – 1986) was an American photographer, pioneer documentarian and a key figure among avant-garde filmmakers in the 1930s. He probably has been the first American abstract film-maker, with "H2O" (1929), an ode to water, followed by other experiments, sometimes of a political nature when he joined Nykino, a loose coalition of New York-based cinematographers who pooled footage for use in left-wing newsreels shown at worker's rallies, conventions and during strikes.
