The model used in the animated rhythmic fantasy The Man with Modern Nerves is based on sketches of terraced Mexican pyramids done by Adolf Loos in 1923 for a visionary design of a city hall in Mexico-City. Known for the purity and simplicity of his style, Adolf Loos is one of the pioneers of modern architecture. The animated film with live action sequences could be described as an homage to Adolf Loos, but is, apart from being a personal, very intellectual approach, also an artistic version of a biographical detail.

What you see is what you hear in filmmaker Bady Minck's visual treatment of an original composition by Beat Furrer. The individual musicians appear only in the extremely brief moments in which they play, with their bodies representing notes on a visualised score. As the conductor masterfully tames time and commands silence, the dominance of music over the body is skillfully illustrated while the music becomes a living picture.
