Two Space

About This Movie

Two Space is quite the fascinating piece of animation from 1979, directed by Larry Cuba. It dives deep into the world of Islamic art and explores how symmetries come alive in the patterns we often overlook. The film has this meditative pacing, drawing you in as it reveals how these intricate designs are more than just pretty visuals—they're rich in mathematical beauty. The use of animation here isn’t flashy but rather serves the theme effectively, with a focus on abstraction and geometry that feels unique for its time. It’s an interesting blend of art and mathematics that manages to feel both enlightening and visually captivating.

Two Space has seen limited releases over the years, making it somewhat of a rarity among animation collectors. Most copies are on VHS or early DVD editions, and gathering pristine versions can be a challenge. Its niche appeal lies in the intersection of art and mathematics, which attracts a specific subset of collectors interested in both the artistic and theoretical aspects of animation.
