I realized this video as a multimedial features of a stage performance of the theater company “La corte dei Miracoli“. The performance included lectures of futuristic plays by different authors and the prizegiving to winning competitors in a poetical competition about futurism.
The concept behind the video come to me while watching the video of the popular dance song “Around the World” by Daft Punk. I thought that combining the paintings and advertisements by futuristc artist Fortunato Depero with this song could be a effective and nice way to explain a little bit of the artist to today people rather that making a boring video with pictures fading staticly into one another.
The video has been projected during the performance on the 18th of June 2009 in the Teatro Civico in Sassari.
Disclaimer: obviously neither the music (Daft Punk) nor the pictures (Fortunato Depero) are mine.
