Happy Birthday FUTURISM!!!

100 Years ago today, F T Marinetti published a copy of his Futurist Manifesto on the front page of Le Figaro in Italy, kicking off a frantic wave of manifesto production which has yet to let up to this day where we find ourselves awash in a sea of -isms: Futurism, Surrealism, Cubism, Dadaism, etc.-ism.

Happy Birthday, comrades.
