Fragments untitled #16mn50 color stereo 2012 Serbia
by Doplgenger
The famous speech of Slobodan Milosevic, which took place at Kosovo on June 28th 1989, was performed in front of the thousands of people. The National television was streaming it. This event, as known as “happening of the people”, is embodied in the image and the speech of Milosevic. History regards it as a presage of the collapse of Yugoslavia and the bloodshed of the Yugoslav Wars. Doplgenger vivisects media footage and TV stream of the 1989 event in order to denote the invisible and deconstruct the memory.

Sur le passage de quelques amis Facebook5mn47 color stereo 2011 France
by Suzel Roche
Again, two builders meet each other, some time they hurt, most frequently, they stay face to face, let the spectator find place in their junction: my Facebook friends's pictures and the voice of Guy Debord from his movie "La Société du Spectacle".

Chinese Wedding Dancer14mn50 color stereo 2008 USA
by Neil Needleman
A lyrically rhythmic joy ride with constantly changing graceful patterns, concocted using video footage shot at my son’s wedding in China. Through editing, I’ve imposed new patterns and pulsating bursts of movement on a “folk” dance performed by an entertainer at the event.

IMPRESSURE4mn35 color stereo 2017 United Kingdom
by Guli Silberstein
Video code captured during family trips in British landscape, explodes and diffuses on screen, creating smears of vibrant colours and merging moving forms. The work wonders about the mysterious connection between nature and humans, and the use of technology in perception of the natural world.

Mónica's Portrait5mn color stereo 2015 Portugal
by João Cristovão LEITÃO
Mónica is, in theory, anything. Therefore, her portraits are born from the juxtaposition of sounds and of images taken from the audiovisual archive that is YouTube. Copyrights are neglected, the purposes of those who are neglected are usurped and (im)possible truths are tested. Thus, Mónica’s Portrait isn’t intended as an inflexible document – which informs and certifies –, but rather as an audiovisual montage able to suggest the inevitable and multiple identity of things: of sound, of image and of mankind.

Win-Nip-Egg4mn12 color stereo 2015 Canada
by Lamathilde
When a state phantomizes a population, creating another reality. When history disfigures the face of truth. When my story meets another story. When women disappear without trace. While white and privileged, I witness a repetition of stories. When violence against women's bodies equals violence from the use of words. The bodies of those we do not want to see or hear. From my studio window, I look out and my life crosses theirs.
