Made with Gaspar Color (a 3-color process pre-dating Technicolor) which Fischinger helped to invent, Kreise was one of the first European color films. The film was an ad film commissioned bythe Tolirag agency. Various product shots were later added onto the end to advertise chocolate and other items. Fischinger removed the Tolirag logo and made a purely abstract version. (Cindy Keefer, Center for Visual Music)
