Peter Tscherkassky<br />
INSTRUCTIONS FOR A LIGHT<br />
AND SOUND MACHINE<br />
Peter Tscherkassky rilegge in modo sperimentale Il buono,<br />
il brutto e il cattivo di Sergio Leone. Eli Wallach diventa il<br />
protagonista di un <strong>nuovo</strong> film montato come un vero e<br />
proprio incubo partorito dal regista austriaco con la tecnica<br />
<strong>del</strong> found footage.<br />
Peter Tscherkassky re-interprets Sergio Leone’s The Good, the<br />
Bad and the Ugly in an experimental key. Eli Wallach becomes<br />
the protagonist of a new film edited like a true nightmare, made<br />
by the Austrian director using found footage.<br />
“L’eroe di Instruction for a Light and Sound Machine non è<br />
difficile da identificare. Cammina inconsapevolmente per<br />
la strada e realizza improvvisamente che non è soltanto<br />
soggetto al macabro sentimento da parte di tanti spettatori<br />
ma che è anche alla mercé <strong>del</strong> regista. Si difende eroicamente<br />
ma è condannato al patibolo nel quale trova la morte<br />
filmica a causa <strong>del</strong>la lacerazione <strong>del</strong> film stesso. (...)<br />
Instruction for a Light and Sound Machine è il tentativo di trasformare<br />
un Western romano in una tragedia greca.”<br />
Peter Tscherkassky<br />
“The hero of Instructions for a Light and Sound Machine is<br />
easy to identify. Walking down the street unknowingly, he suddenly<br />
realizes that he is not only subject to the gruesome moods<br />
of several spectators but also at the mercy of the filmmaker. He<br />
defends himself heroically, but is condemned to the gallows,<br />
where he dies a filmic death through a tearing of the film itself....<br />
Instructions for a Light and Sound Machine is an attempt to<br />
transform a Roman Western into a Greek tragedy.”<br />
Peter Tscherkassky<br />
