Abstract
The author describes principles for a kinetic chromatic art form and illust rates examples of the medium as realized with the Dichromaccord, a color or gan he created. The chromatic approach, extrapolated from the color studies of Josef Albers, uses the interaction between projected color and the afte rimage of preceding colors as the source of motivating tension in color seq uences and cadences.
