Watch this video

(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.)

You do not have to watch the whole thing. I think after watching a few minutes you will get the idea.  BUT you might find yourself mesmerized and end up watching it to see what happens.

THEN post on your blog what you think about the video.

I want to hear your general impressions but two things you must write about:

Do you think this is art?  Why or why not?

Does it remind you of anything?

Due next Wens. March 13 when class starts.
