  1. Although I find the overall Futurist theme to be quite destructive than constructive, this was a great video! Real nice arty bits. What is the music by the way?

  2. this reminds me of the Utopian movement …..in the early twentieth century . Takes me back to those monograph comfort . My studies have become so much more disciplined over the years

  3. "9. We will glorify war — the world's only hygiene — militarism, patriotism, the destructive gesture of freedom bringers, beautiful ideas worth dying for, and scorn for woman.

    10. We will destroy the museums, libraries, academies of every kind, will fight moralism, feminism, every opportunistic or utilitarian cowardice." F.T. Marinetti quoted by Erich Fromm in The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness… p.457-459…. IOW The guy was a necrophilic narcissistic nutjob.

  4. This is one of the most worthwhile things anyone's ever done on the interent… but even though they were Italians I think you're overdoing the hand motions

  5. @cramdizzl you are totally right! wow, i think i understand now, thanks cramdizzl!

    btw just a little hint: if you hate art school, then maybe you shouldnt be going.

  6. We are on the extreme promontory of the centuries! What is the use of looking behind at the moment when we must open the mysterious shutters of the impossible? Time and Space died yesterday. We are already living in the absolute, since we have already created eternal, omnipresent speed.

  7. It's being presented as campily eccentric. Because it's so dull and everyday to us now, iron girders and cars etc. But Marinetti's violent neurotic excitement is present in every life-strangling modern human phenomena.
