Bradley Eros & Tim Geraghty “TransTrans (TRANSFORMERS Transformed)”
12 minutes
“Our cinema must detach itself from reality and become deforming,
synthetic and dynamic!”
~ F.T. Marinetti
A radical remix of the recent Transformers film, via synthetic
collapse and critical revenge on its old & new fascist tropes >
celebrating SPEED. NOISE. + DANGER. The fervent declarations & violent
poetry of the Futurists are superimposed on the mythic morphology of
the Autobot blockbuster’s machine mayhem. Images of death &
destruction reign in a delirium of transformations as, to quote
Marinetti: “We Decompose the Universe!”
