"What makes Tokyo a continually compelling yet utterly baffling urban experience? Shows on either side of town highlight the practical, aesthetic and theoretical conditions of this disaster-prone city."
part two
Ankar Moor reports in to the leader of Helix City, Lord Zirpola, that they've now captured a total of four range guides. Here's the reason for the captures: The Helixers have recently perfected the "Death Machine," the snazzy motorcycle seen earlier, and plan to use them to conquer neighboring Tritan City, but first they need to convince the Helix populace that they can win, so they're going to prove the Death Machines' by arraying them against range guides in the gladiatorial combat of Deathsport. All clear? No, it doesn't make much sense to me either. I mean, it's a thousand years from now, and they've apparently got sufficient technology. Is a silver-painted bike with a crummy "futuristic" plywood panel on the front going to win a war? "We've reinvented the motorcross -- let's conquer Tritan!"
