electronics, stage design, costume design
The car race Indy 500, which takes place at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the USA since 1911, has been described as the world’s greatest sport event. Taking Marinetti’s fourth paragraph as point of departure, Indy500: The promontory of the centuries concludes that we are already living in the future, with speed and consumption as linked matter in what has become a religion in which the global brands are the proponents of this global church.
