Der Lauf Der Dinge (Faster and to the tune of the William Tell Overture)

Source: Wikipedia
The Way Things Go (German: Der Lauf der Dinge) is a 1987 art film by the Swiss artist duo Peter Fischli and David Weiss. It documents a long causal chain assembled of everyday objects, resembling a Rube Goldberg machine.

The machine is in a warehouse, about 100 feet long, and incorporates materials such as tires, trash bags, ladders, soap, oil drums, and gasoline. Fire and pyrotechnics are used as chemical triggers. The film is nearly 29 minutes, 45 seconds long, but some of that is waiting for something to burn, or slowly slide down a ramp


This version of "Der Lauf Der Dinge" is 4x faster than the Original and is set to the tune of the William Tell Overture. Thus, instead of being 29minutes long, it is only 7 minutes long. Please enjoy.

Why destroying a masterpiece by speeding it up? Makes no sense at all.

[oakear]

@strapazin 53,000 people would seem to disagree with you....

[saIamander]

@oakear yeah, if you've sat through the real time version a few times this is a welcome way to review.

[oakear]

@saIamander thank you sir. :-)

[BongoPedro]

This is a stupid thing to do. What's your justification for turning it into Tom and Jerry?

[oakear]

@BongoPedro because i could sir. and 59,000 have seen it so far so obviously someone out there likes what I did with it :-)

[oakear]

The original "Der Lauf Der Dinge" is 29 minutes long, thus will not fit into one video on Youtube. It is brilliant for those who have 29 minutes to kill. But for everyone else, try my 7 and a half minute long version. It's the entire movie, just played 4 times as fast. And the William Tell Overture was added into the background. You're seeing exactly what you'd see in the original, just faster. and instead of hearing the audio you hear music. Please stop complaining about it being short.:)

[invaderzimrules132]

That's some serious Tom and Jerry shit right there.

@HRHBoof -feel kinda sorry for the girlfriend dude.........

[riddlywalker]

If I find you, I will tie a bottle of solvent to you, attach plystyrene wheels, and launch you at a tyre on a ramp through a stepladder past a burning matress.....you have destroyed the pace of a masterwork, you , oakear, are a complete Wan***.

[riddlywalker]

@DocterCross -You still haven't seen it! all you have seen is someone with no talent or ideas messing about with

a masterwork by others. please find the original- its pace is part of it's observation of 'the way things go' not this gibbering wreckage......

[strapazin]

@MaryStewart Sure. And "Huckleberry Finn" is too lengthy, "Moby Dick" too impressive, the Mona Lisa too dark. Have a Big Mac.

[MaryStewart]

@strapazin the original is too slow! lol

[alicatinwonderland]

@strapazin I agree :) The original was a work of art. This has taken out the anticipation and relief and I also loved the sounds of sellotape stretching, flames crackling, water sloshing. Also likes mean nothing, read the comments, most people are looking for the original and are having to make do with this.
