Rental Format(s): 16mm film
A dark, militaristic satire (that isn't funny) structured in four ordered parts of equal value: Commercial, Stealth, Funeral and Ritual. WAR-HEADS is primarily composed of found images originating on video and re-photographed with high-contrast color and b&w film. Sections of found audio are used in their entirety with only slight deviation. An Amiga computer is used to alter, edit and arrange a preconceived list of words. A cassette tape loop of a broadcast test pattern creates a binding adhesive in which nearly all spoken dialogue is interwoven.
