Tempo e escatologia na representação urbana futurística de Blade Runner (1982)

Abstract

This work, based on previous research for post-graduation purposes, brings to discussion a piece of an urban futuristic representation, extracted from the movie Blade Runner (1982), directed by Ridley Scott and inspired in the Philip K. Dick´s novel Do androids dream of electric sheep?, 1968. Attempting for the confluence of the many temporalities gather in a certain context and articulating this contemporary urban characteristic to the time accelerating phenomenon as an actualization for the eschatological time conception, this article introduces a panoramic vision of a few aspects of this life that “runs over the blade”.
