DADA: a performance.

This performance is based off the cathartic reaction the Dada artist expressed after the horrors of World War One. In an anarchical attempt to deconstruct the society and culture that had allowed and promoted the atrocities of the First World War the Dada artist reverted to a nonsensical poems and artworks.
The links between this performance and Dada art is inherently blatant in order to break through the estrangement many veterans, including myself, feel to society, and hence construct a historical understanding of self.

  • Ok, so I really really liked this video. It's too symbolic for Dada, but that's fine, it's good the way it is. Maybe you shouldn't do any vocal overdubbing, the piece is good enough, if people get pissed because they watch you get your head shaved for 3 minutes, they don't understand Dada or surrealism, and they're not going to like it no matter what you do. Keep it up though.

  • This MUST be made into a MOVIE!

  • I can't tell if you're being serious and that's the reason I love this.
