Dara Birnbaum - Wonder Woman


A stutter-step progression of «extended moments» unmasks the technological «miracle» of Wonder Woman's transformation, playing on the psychological transformation of a television product. Birnbaum considers this tape an «altered state» that «renders the viewer capable of re-examining those looks which on the surface seem so banal that even the super-natural transformation of a secretary into a »Wonder Woman« is reduced to a burst of blinding light and a turn of the body - a child's play of rhythmical devices inserted within the morose belligerence of the fodder that is our average television diet».

Gracias, Cecilia!
