This pioneer San Francisco experimental film artist created in this abstract film an exotic rhythmic dance experience uncovering wider variations in the use of abstract visuals and patterns giving the appearance of designs floating in space. Flowing into the grouped forms and mellow colors are the rhythmic sounds of primitive African percussion temporized at speeds in relation to the graceful movements. In the making of Eneri, Hirsch used abstract designs, most of which were originally black-and-white photographs of oscilloscope patterns. The technique employed colored filters, using an optical printing process. Also, a mechanical method was devised that allowed a great deal of fluidity and freedom in making this film exceedingly alive in forms and expressions.
