PropellorTape

PropellorTape (1979)

Documentary film footage of ground personnel starting the propeller of an American B-17 bomber is repeated in a tightly edited, rhythmic structure. The obsessive fragmentation of the young soldiers lifting the propellers renders their action an exercise in frustration; A study in memetic repetition by Klaus vom Bruch.
