Originally produced by DEFA Film Library in 1978.
For the 1977 intermedia exhibition Tangenten I (Tangents I), Dammbeck and co-organizer, sculptor and painter Frieder Heinze had planned to collaborate on a film that would combine non-camera animation with 35mm footage of a train ride between the two Dresden districts of Radebeul and Pieschen. When Tangents I was banned, Heinze turned to other projects, but Dammbeck continued working on the film by himself. METAMORPHOSES I—the first experimental film to be shown publicly in the GDR—marks the filmic beginning of Dammbeck’s long-term art project the Herakles-Konzept (Hercules Concept).
