Une Ritournelle8mn color stéréo 2013 Franceby Emmanuelle Sarrouythey came to this conclusion that not to sink they would have to spin, spin, spinself-productionself-distributionclip The Tears of Man Ray5mn31 color & b/w stéréo 2012 USAby Brice Bowman"The Tears of Man Ray" evolves around the notion that life events that are at first pleasant memories can turn out later to become sour memories; and become regret in the deepest sense, haunting us forever, moreover, indulgences that lead to disasters, the manner in which a creative person sacrifices all of oneself for art at all costs as if they were hypnotized to out of control addictions. Other notions in "The Tears of Man Ray" are: foreignness, irony, failing while trying to recover, nostalgia based in fiction, death after life (yes I said "death after life"), and additionally life lived as a partition from reality, inaccessibility, exoticness, inability to retain something once obtained, always being on a journey, the ocean as time, and repetitive music seemingly sweet but ever so full of pain in reality with its inherent repeating error (which I put the error in the soundtrack music intentionally).self-productionself-distributionclip Confusion is my birthright3mn19 b/w stéréo 2012 Franceby Dorianne WottonIsolated in an inert world
throbbing, so white,
hallucinated, evaporated,
she roams, sleepwalking
wandering in a strange land
where she has disappeared ...
...world of muffled noises,
discolored, disarticulated,
gasping, panting.
She floats to her inviolable island,
untouchable.
And she sees herself splitted,
choked.
And she sees herself without bonds
nor any support,
except, except... oh sweet pills!
And she sees herself freed or enslaved,
high, high, high ...
And she sees herself ...self-productionself-distributionclip Sinfullness1mn18 color stéréo 2012 Swedenby Anders WebergMarked by sin ...self-productionself-distributionclip Annonciation5mn25 color stéréo 2013 Franceby Frédéric LabondeA naked sleeping man is lying on the ground. A blood-red drangonfly lands on his heart and the veins of his wrists. The Animal-Angel then approaches the man's face…
ANNONCIATION is part of an ongoing reflection on the theme of childlessness, assembling various videos, photographs, and a ditigal piece, relating to another film of mine entitled Humus.self-productionself-distributionclip Trip Paulista5mn45 color stéréo 2011 Brazilby Marcia Beatriz GraneroAfter a night of strange dreams, she wakes up and takes some coffee to go with some psychotropics. Her hesitation arises as an invitation for a pleasant tour in the crowded streets of Sao Paulo/Brazil.self-productionself-distributionclip Hex Suffice Cache Ten12mn42 color stéréo 2012 Germanyby Thorsten FleischA surreal escape of a disintegrating mind into neon-lit nightmares from a discarded future. Suddenly interferences from sub-particle proliferation occur within the protagonist's body, a transformation can't be avoided. This exploration of cinematic space within an implosion of cerebral space is a daring tale of aliens, experiments on humans, video games and mutation. It is showering the unsuspecting viewer in handmade visual and aural stimuli from planet Fleisch.self-productionself-distributionclip Robo Cats in Titan City5mn04 color stéréo 2012 Germanyby Paul WiersbinskiThe Video Installation “Robo Cats in Titan City” reflects on issues of Science Fiction by mixing different layers of utopic and disutopic image history with parts of the last interview given by one of the most controversial German intellectuals of the 20th century, Ernst Jünger.self-productionself-distributionclip natyr4mn45 color stéréo 2013 Norwayby Ottar Ormstad'natyr' is the third video in which Norwegian artist Ottar Ormstad combines concrete poetry, images, and music/sound. This time the video is based on a work by the Norwegian painter Knut Rumohr (1916-2002) who mostly created abstract tempera paintings inspired by the nature of a fjord at the Norwegian west coast.
Ormstad once again continues mixing words from different languages. A concept he presented with "Non-Translation as Poetic Experience" at the Translating E-Lit conference in Paris 2012. The word 'natyr' may not exist in any language, but may be experienced with different associations to nature.
The video (HD 16:9) is made for plain screening (4:45min). Exept for the animation made by Ina Pillat, everything is directed and created by Ormstad, photography and music included.self-productionself-distributionclip Feed3mn38 color stéréo 2012 USAby Coalfather IndustriesEating, crying, sleeping.self-productionself-distributionclip Les lunettes1mn color mono 2011 Franceby Pauline HorovitzHistory of a collection.production : Quark Productionsdistribution : Quark Productionsclip do as Atsuko do2mn56 color stéréo 2013 Swedenby Antti Savela...the contrast by the small female figure - drinking coffe, smoking etc, in order to give the impression to the watcher of a peep in a private domestic act - and the tall male figure give a special hint of irony to the video, bringing together a glance on the solitude and the poetics of making small everyday things...self-productionself-distributionclip Another Day of Depression in Kowloon16mn color stéréo 2012 Chinaby Yuk-Yiu IP"Another Day of Depression in Kowloon" is a “found” landscape film, a virtual ethnographic study and a digital portrait of Hong Kong as seen through the lens of contemporary popular culture incarnated in the forms of video game and screen media.self-productionself-distributionclip
