# Italian Futurism × Vorticism — composed image prompt # IndexStyle — https://indexstyle.org/compose?ids=italian-futurism+vorticism # Italian Futurism carries the structure. Vorticism appear as accents, each further back than the last. # Style descriptors only. Never imitates a specific artist, studio, brand or work. An original image that takes its structure from Italian Futurism (Style, 1909–1940s) and its accent from Vorticism (Style, 1914–1918). Structural cues: Words-in-freedom; Radiating type; Onomatopoeia; Extreme jumps in scale. Accent cues, used sparingly: Diagonal machine-cut lines; Blunt heavy type; The BLAST/BLESS lists; The dynamics of the vortex. Composition: Fix one point of impact; radiate and accelerate the words. Type and lettering: Treat differing weights, widths and angles as volume. Let one material quality come from the second style: Close to a single black ink on coarse-surfaced stock. Mood: Exhilaration, Futurism, Rebellion, Technology. Color: build on #eee4ce, #20201e, #d44531 with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above. # Where the two fight # - Both belong to Avant-garde, so the difference is small. Push the roles further apart than feels comfortable. # Cautions carried from each entry # - Italian Futurism: Never split the movement's innovation from its embrace of war and Fascism; handle it critically. # - Vorticism: Borrowing only the habit of naming enemies leaves a page whose targets mean nothing to today's reader, and nothing but bravado remains. # Design specs: https://indexstyle.org/styles/italian-futurism/design.md · https://indexstyle.org/styles/vorticism/design.md
