Fischli and Weiss remove these things that surround us from their contexts in our daily lives, and then restructure their relationships to one another. The artists aim neither to glorify nor to alienate these common objects, but merely to create new references in which they might be considered.
THE WAY THINGS GO - without narration or interviews - simply records the self-destructing performance of Fischli's and Weiss' most ambitious construction: 100 feet of physical interactions, chemical reactions, and precisely crafted chaos worthy of Rube Goldberg or Alfred Hitchcock.

An evergreen classic!
Just came to see the original when bumped into this dirtbag Honda advertising:

this should be called "if piromaniacs would use they're head"

This is so awesome. It's like that one OK Go video, except with a lot more fire.

This reminds me of that one Michael Bay movie where stuff catches light/explodes ...which one was it? Oh yeah , all of them.

This was made in 1987 and inspired Honda advert, with out this the Honda advert wouldn't exist. Love Fishli and Weiss, remember an exhibition at the Tate in 2006 or 2007, hundreds of little sculptures, my favorit, 'Mick Jagger and Brian Jones walking home satisfied after writing I can’t get no satisfaction‘. Genius!

The edits are well done, but still make this much less impressive

watch the whole thing, it's 30 minutes long. you can find all 3 parts on youtube titled The Way Things Go (1/3) (2/3) and (3/3). Trust me, it is well worth your time to watch the whole thing.
