Lol. My six year old son didn't get the joke either. But he wouldn't eat it. I must say, though, it wasn't bad! The chicken meatballs were very tasty, and the cylinder itself was completely edible. It's the look and size and implications that make it disturbing.
@Xenolilly7 жыл бұрын
It really did look edible though once the cylinder was cut the meal looked less disturbing. If I were to make it I'd make just the cylinder.

When I was studying abroad in Italy, I took a class on Italian Food and Wine. I did my final paper on Futurist food, and this reminded me of that experience. And for those in the comments who noticed the phallic nature of the food this is a reoccurring theme in the recipes as well as some of the other documents inside the cookbook. Especially because Marinetti believed that meat should mostly be fed to the military (and thus the men). Here is one of my favorite quotes from the cookbook "Vulgar and foolish the Italian woman who think it more elegant to say ‘I’ve drunk four cocktails’ than ‘I’ve eaten a bowl of minestrone’." (60)
@theartassignment7 жыл бұрын
Hah! Thanks for contributing your knowledge here. I would also add that there are more than one formulas for breast-shaped foods. Such as "Strawberry Breasts," "a pink plat with two erect feminine breasts made of ricotta dyed pink with Campari with nipples of candied strawberry..."
@rachelistired7 жыл бұрын
Right I meant my comment more in terms of expressions of hyperhetero male sexuality. If I'm remembering right (and it's been a while) these formulas seem to more about the ownership of the female rather than their liberation. Especially during this second wave of Futurism where it became part of the prop of the fascist state's views on women and their role in society rather than the revolutionary origins. Thank you for all that you do!

When ever I feel nihilistic , I will always return to this video. The more times I watch it, the more ridiculous and surreal I find it. Your droll presentation, ( tinged with disapproval) the philosophy of futurism, the adventures in symbolism all tied in with your incredible dry wit; ( the upbeat music at the end) I find it absolutely hilarious. It makes me laugh at the absurdity of it all and lets me review the world in a new light.

As @rachelistired remarks in another comment, there were many phallic formulas in the cookbook, including "The Excited Pig: a whole salami, skinned, is served upright on a dish containing some very hot black coffee mixed with a good deal of eau de Cologne." But there are a wide variety of formulas within the cookbook, all intended to shock their diners. Here are a selection of other formula titles: Immortal Trout, Steel Chicken, Rice Oranges, Ultravirile, Manandwomanatmidnight, Cubist Vegetable Patch, Carrot + Trousers = Professor, Intuitive Antipasto, Piquant Airport, Veal Fuselage, and Italian Breasts in the Sunshine.

What a fun episode! I have about fourteen different things I want to say all at once! The fancy hands introducing the book; the great "which I'll tell you about in due course" pun; the tidiest hand-eating of a pile of whipped cream I'd ever seen or imagined; structural engineering; and thinking "uhhh... that doesn't look cooked to me" and then watching you check it with your fingers. Apparently you had the same concern -- maybe that's why you didn't say what it tasted like? ;) Really enjoyed this! Thank you for continually expanding my boundaries on art. :)

They did. One was "Cubist Vegetable Patch," which has you to lay out precise arrangements of cubes of veggies (like "cubes of celery from Verona fried and sprinkled in paprika") into a very artful composition. But on the other hand, they also had "Surprise Bananas: Scoop out a cavity in a peeled banana and fill it with chopped chicken meat. Put it on the fire in a buttered pan and gradually add some meat juices. Serve it with vegetables." Ewww....
