synopsis
In the 1980s, the Canadian Telidon videotex system was not only used for the transmission of text and image information in telecommunications, but also became the medium of choice for many artists. The short film
Spirale is one of the “Telidon” works of early Canadian digital cinema. It uses the tool's vector graphics to create dizzying compositions in an op-art style.
