A return to black and white, with a few shades of gray (fifty?) ... and the fleeting passage of the blue and fuchsia pink.

Back to black and white
The drawing was made directly in digital for its most part, with some borrowings to old compositions drawn on paper in pencil or ink from China.
Paper compositions
A computer breakdown and a week of repair, followed by fifteen days of travel: the opportunity to return to the beginnings of the videos, making on paper compositions combining pencil and ink from China. Less transparency and depth than in digital compositions, but more material in traits and flat.
Digital compositions
Here is a series of graphic compositions, directly sketched by digital means (with the exception of a pencil-drawn background on paper for the first three).
Meteors
Meteor: phenomenon, perceptible in the atmosphere or on the surface of the globe, which may consist of an aqueous, gaseous, electric or optical manifestation.
Meteors
first Meteor
second Meteor
third Meteor
fourth Meteor
fifth Meteor
sixth Meteor
seventh Meteor
eighth Meteor
sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth meteors simultaneously
No green, or almost
Here we again take the 3D-yellow ribbon that goes down and rotates at the end of the sequence "pencil, glass, light". It splits into two objects: the 3D- ribbon itself, which is now coloured in purple, and its projection on a plane, adorned with the yellow and red edges of the frame taken into account by the 3D-software to draw the ribbon.
The other motifs of the video are based on two pencil drawings and on a set of flat surfaces and lines, drawn and animated in 3D.
The name given to the video can be understood by observing that all the colors come back several times during the sequence, except the green which appears only punctually for one of the 3D-traits ... even though it is irather turquoise.

Here, metallic-looking 3D lines are rarer and replaced by translucent surfaces that could be made of tinted glass.
Moreover, there is no more lateral path accompanying the course of the lines, as in most of the previous videos; the moving forward is now regularly progressing in the direction of the screen's background, towards a light source that is never reached.
