Between 1997 and 2001, I was a student at the School Find Arts in Marseilles. I had the habit of making a self portrait at a photo machine, in order to document the many different style of haircuts, which transformed my appearance. In order to keep the same picture quality, I choose always the same photomachine.With a video process call morphing , each selfportrait is animated from one portrait to an other. The identity theme in this video puts the stress on this crucial moment : a metamorphosis from the teenager until the adulthood throught various hairstyles.

"Fractured"
3mn04 color stereo 2013 Australia
by David Anthony Sant
self-production
self-distribution
Decisions about what to film within the confines of the specific parameters of the camera frame were determined as much by the decision to avoid filming what lay outside the periphery of that frame. This film explores and reworks perceptions of urban peculiarities found in an Inner Western Sydney landscape through ever shifting camera movements and unconventional editing techniques. Human artifacts in this landscape include such peculiarities as the desolate rooftops of multistorey car parks, street signage, telegraph poles, power lines, empty construction sites and shop front awnings. The re-working is a fractured spatio-temporal continuity that pursues, in the visual and auditory realm, a new mode of expression that seeks to expand cinematic thought.

Series: Video without-camera, reinterpreting "camera-world"
Berkeley theory "to be is to be perceived". The contraposition of images from my window as "window on the world" through the myth of transparency (film metaphor proposed by Andres Hipano) with images of Film by Samuel Beckett. Overlaying the gaze open to the world with the actions of the man who flees from being perceived. This coming together in the final view that transforms the theme "to be is to be perceived" by "not to be is to be perceived" with the eye of the lens as a destroyer of the visible.

The cinematographic phenomenon can be envisaged like a screen where the luminous sequences follow on carried by a sound linking and unlinking to the movements of the images. "#01" is a tentative of radical and clinical paring of the cinematographic phenomenon, a drama where lights and sounds remind us of life.

A member of the matriculating cancer makes a movie for his friends that projects fantasies of rape. A matriculating cancer is a bourgeoisie counter-culture that fails to counter anything. This is an attack at the sphere of media representation that objectifies, degrades, and negates the human soul's capacity for empathy and empowers the white male hegemony that in turn profits from rape. This is an attack at the systems of negation meant to sow apathy and disinterest for the sake of celebrating The Pleasure Principle and the Digital Sickness.

Braiding of a video shots in mini-DV and re-arranged numerically in the aim of perceiving unsuspected spatial and temporal motifs. "D-Tour ô cube" is seeking to build, from the original film many times retouched, new architectures, to explore the magic of new geometries, to melt during the projection in the eye's spirit. "(D-TOUR)3" extends the previous research, by using a "magic candle", tries to crystallize asymetries of outlines and colors, to transform them, to metamorphize them. Development of a variant of "anorthoscopie", "(D-TOUR)3" oscillates between synthesis of movement and movement of synthesis.

This film is about the concept of memory. Images from the kahlenberg-hotel/vienna are compiled, deconstructed and de-contextualized. Narrative logic of space and time is ignored. A subjective, emotive interpretation causes the evolution from collection to process to product. The intersection of these categories shows the disassociation between lived and narrated experience, being and representing, which is at the heart of our mediated society.

"...niland" tells unreasonably through pictures, lets us imagine events, persists on searching and remains uncertain.
"...niland" is built on the separating line of both water and air being symbolically related to the emotions and common sense; a diffuse fleeting glance of a interline that we cross through from side to side.

Dialogue About a Dialogue: J. L. Borges August 19, 2008 by Sineokov. A: Absorbed in our discussion of immortality, we had let night fall without lighting the lamp, and we couldn’t see each other’s faces. With an offhandedness or gentleness more convincing than passion would have been, Macedonio Fernandez’ voice said once more that the soul is immortal. He assured me that the death of the body is altogether insignificant, and that dying has to be the most unimportant thing that can happen to a man. I was playing with Macedonio’s pocketknife, opening and closing it. A nearby accordion was infinitely dispatching La Comparsita, that dismaying trifle that so many people like because it’s been misrepresented to them as being old. . . . I suggested to Macedonio that we kill ourselves, so we might have our discussion without all the racket. Z: (mockingly) But I suspect that at the last moment you reconsidered. A: (now deep in mysticism) Quite frankly, I don’t remember whether we committed suicide that night or not.

It's about a loop. the image is that of a wave which passes back and forth before the spectators eye. A rhythm is created by the sound and the incessant coming and going of the sea. Through and by the sound, it is possible to confuse this editing with the real rhythm which a wave can create. This sequence represents a perfect loop because the return is identical in every way to the departure point. This image is fished from nature, but the editing makes a hypnotic, turned away version.

"05.10.38" examines the inner journey of a soul searching protagonist. We encounter a semi-surrealistic theme that, in a almost cliche-like manor, high-lights the ambivalence of the male gaze and gendered (dis)order. Through digital filtering effects, a certain suggestive aesthetic is conjured forth.The film deals with questions of identity and belonging and the blurring of boundaries. It is a sombre and suggestive reflection of life in the pyrotechnic insanitarium of consumerism freedom.

"1/3" consists of one visual source and two sound sources ranging from custom-made electronics to electronic violin effects. It examines ‘sound as image, image as sound’ with visual trigged sound and sound triggered image created through simple basic elements. The intention of this unit is to deconstruct the computer term, “one-bit” with core communication elements, sound and image and then reconstruct it as an art form. "1/3" explores the essence of simplicity as the art of complexity with human-machine interactions. 1/3 uses the expression, "one-bit" as a point of reference along with low-tech materials with high-tech programming to investigate the essence of simplicity and new application of visual music. "1/3" takes live audiovisual media to new limits of depth, dimensions and scale with “one-bit” expression.

An optics which, in spite of the variety of its contents, is unified around the transit of an object, particulary signifiant and it on several levels given that its meaning are anchored in the collective unconscious.

So I had the idea of producing a series of romantic paintings, a pictorial stroll in Paris, a wandering aimlessly displayed, if not to provide a projection support to inner visions, movements of interiority confronted to the current means and technical exchanges and jetable communications, so finally the mobile phone which is the best avatar, an icon of our endless consumption? I do not know if my intentions are very clear, but the images speak for themselves and with less verbiage?

In the film "2012", fear and desire are constantly oscillating. The camera takes us to the boundary of a closed property. Initially the eye is reluctant to approach even further but curiosity is takes over and forces us to enter the house. Although a warning knock is heard, we devote ourselves to the unknown. We see the body of a restless sleeping man and transcend into his imagination. The immersion into this scenario can be seen as an escape from our bodies. Is it a dream? A time travel? Or is it the longing for the long anticipated apocalypse? Weightless, the viewer moves between reality, illusion and film. The story is about the burden of existence and of the Apocalypse which may have taken place already, without that we have taken note of it. After the dreaming protagonist wakes up, we once again have the perspective of the camera lens and leave the scene, the place of imagination, the place of cinema. Maybe we escaped the Apocalypse?

The human need to move from one territory to another has been increases considerably today as a result of globalization. Travel between cities and across borders is one of the most common behaviors, the continuing exodus of communities involves not only the pleasure and tourism, but as goals, seeking a better quality of life based on education and the economy, or in extreme cases involves seeking refuge and asylum.
In my case, as a visual artist, travel has become the work itself. Any creative process is in response to the direct influence of where I live, where I am or where i transit.
Interest in tackling the trip as an artistic work in different ways, such as photography and video is not only based on observation and interpretation of the movements and spatial and temporal displacements but also the need to adapt the changes that contemporary art have, around the tools that facilitate the integration of necessary information for the artistic work, as the recognition of new spaces, new forms of creation that mutate and become indispensable for the development of artistic processes. As more as i found transient proceses of artwork, appears necessary elements to undertake new and comprehensive models created between time, space and drift.

These videos ("Menu", "The fat lamb" and "3") are part of a larger project, named “Buni”, which is a journal of the last words. I started it in the middle of 2009. It’s decomposition, mental agony and self loss. This is not a documentation of death, but a mere projection of what really matters. The photos are trying to underline the immortality of the human experience with everything that surrounds him, their interior value, that is never forgotten or lost, becoming the legacy of those who are near to us, those who we love. “Buni” is not a two year study of degradation, but everyone’s story, even if it appears in rather different shapes, written or rewritten with more or less talent.
Buni raised me. Although we are not related, she was more than a mother to me. I started photographing her when I saw that he is poor in health. I felt I must do it. I couldn’t stay inert. In the summer of 2010 I felt that the photographic medium is poor, considering what I felt I would like to transmit to others. That is why I chose to continue what I felt I must do through video. It is obvious that a feeling cannot be transmitted in the sharpest, truly human and real form through the use of photography, film, or text. Nothing that is inside of us can be made VHS or DVD.
“Buni” can only offer photocopied images of a story distorted by our own memories, becoming a reflection of ourselves in deformed mirror. It is a continuous project, putting together more than 180 hours of filmed material and more than 1600 photographs. This work is part of this larger project, alongside other videos made out of the filmed material that I have gathered.

A brief, poetic 16mm film on a simple sculptural action. What becomes apparent is the humor possible in material interactions and the tender and sometimes melodramatic symbolism of cut flowers. What begins as a reverence for natural beauty ends up pointing towards the abstract expressionism and color field work of high modernism which, in many cases eschewed the banality of such ‘natural’ beauty. The collaged soundtrack suggests weightier concerns, gently insistent behind the flatness of the utilitarian sounds of ripping tape.

Each percussive 'CLACK' of the analog switch shifts our perspective, playing equally with camera and mic positioning, separating a/v pairs to create disjunctive relationships. When groups of switches are held down simultaneously, the signals merge to create colorful drifting and massive harmonic drones. From awkward silences to enticing fragmentation, the artist’s presence in the work both engages and repels the viewer, causing reflection on signals in their purest state, no effects, no edits, no way to erase mistakes and vulnerabilities.

Can we apply to time the same tools we normally deploy when questioning the monolithic representation of space, for instance by using the play of perspective, direction, and illusion?...

There was a ferry. The ferry is sinking into the imagery world. It was a tragedy for both the reality and the virtuality. The hands appear and reach to the imagery of its disappearance. The memory of the ferry or the image of the ferry abruptly comes to the present temporality as a dissolving memory itself, yet as a memory that is being mediated through the present axis with the hands recalling the memory.

The “new” prevails over everything, hence, the imminent death of the small rice field. This is an accolade to the being that represents perseverance.

Solipsism beckons, and I stave it off, barely. I contemplate my body falling apart, my kids growing up, changes and disappearances.

abacuc

by Luca Ferri

ABACUC is a man who weighs 198 kilos. He lives alone in the last house of a dead-end street. He doesn’t speak, and he is the living representation of Piero della Francesca’s paintings. ABACUC is constantly tired, unflappable. His daily routine is repetitive, his life is like a jammed refrain. Obsessive and repetitive, ABACUC is “the last man”, maybe a survivor. He spends his time mostly at the cemetery, in a theme park where famous italian historical locations are reproduced in miniature, or visiting utopian architectures. He receives phone calls from a mechanical voice. His idea of beauty resides, at home as well as outside, in the balance between the elements. He contemplates the formal rigour in brief moments of standstill contemplation. Nothing really excites him, except architectural debrises and ruins. The repeated visits paid by a woman, who stays hidden and with whom he communicates through literary quotes, seems to relieve ABACUC from his catastrophic solitude. But this is only another dead-end road: the female figure is only ABACUC’s double, and he is an eternal King Ubu. « Abacuc » is a film about the monumentality of ruins, where the concreteness of Super 8 film, the story, images and sounds compose a body similar to the one of it’s protagonist.

After Empire
52mn color & b/w stereo 2010 Belgium
by Herman Asselberghs
production : Auguste Orts
distribution : Auguste Orts
A search for the alternative to an image of meaning, inspired by Antonio Negri’s and Michael Hardt’s "Empire". The insights from this politico-philosophical study on the contemporary world serve as a starting point for a reflection on positive forms of collective resistance and emancipatory representations in times of war. An adaptation that doesn’t aim to be an illustration of "Empire" but that reworks it in the light of the 9/11 heritage. "After Empire" considers a possible alternative for the iconic image that our collective memory has kept as the quintessential moment of recent history: the hijacked plane hitting the second tower. The alternative: the 15th of February 2003. On that day 30 million citizens across the planet marched against the unilateral decision by the American government to start a pre-emptive war against Iraq under the auspices of “the war on terrorism”. 2/15 was the greatest peace demonstration since the Vietnam war and probably the biggest protest march ever to take place. The war did happen, but this world day of resistance could very well mark the beginning of the 21st century. 2/15 instead of 9/11: a key date in the writing of a history of global contestation in the struggle between two superpowers: the United States against public opinion worldwide.

Only they know that the memory of yesterday is the reflection of a former day, while they plot and prepare, from birth to death, they envisage. They laugh at our tears and invent a world without human beings. Sitting on the spine of the cosmos, they ensure they are AMOK.

2018 Official Rotterdam International Film Festival Selection An avant-garde is a front line. This is a work for the regeneration of the avant-garde. This is a media-fashioned attack aimed at the disturbing omnipotence of hyperrealism and fascist banality - best symbolized by Donald Trump's burning latex effigy. This is a violent collage - shreds of simulacral tumult, a riot in media waste. Meant to be projected anywhere - as a call to arms, a way to incite, an attempt at shaking the normalization of bigotry and authoritarianism. This is a call to #Revolt more than #Resist. This is not for photo ops. Rather than bathe in the aesthetics of nothingness, it is time to wake up and fight the active evil that radiates from the seat of "power" and alters the real through mediated nihilism.

ANA is an experimental video about the darker zones of the Internet. It is a moodboard of the imagery shared by underground communities exposing their self-destruction: more precisely pro-ana/pro-mia (pro-anorexia and pro-bulimia). From those extremities is a discourse about modern day mortification and the spectacle of self-hatred enabled by web communication. Real physical performances re-enact visuals found on hidden forum and social media accounts. They are linked together by the thread of creepypasta (the web answer to an urban legend), going progressively deeper… These performances were remixed to represent the aesthetic of Internet culture. Glitch art, analogic distortion, selfies, references to occultism and others are integrated in the discourse. Video artefacts are voluntary. The spectator takes the place of an individual investigating the disappearance of several female identities from the Internet. The missing women appear in encrypted and hidden videos over the web, leading the protagonist in an esoteric puzzle he tries to decipher.

The story speaks of adaptation and, possibly, regret of an inability to readapt (maybe to a physical space, like its homeland). It could be seen as an impossible return to something that one loves, but simply can not absorb once more.

Theorists of digital art have discussed the similarity of precinematic and postcinematic practices (such as early chronophotograhy and Quicktime video clips). The abstractions created by Robin Dupuis, such as Anoxi, can be understood as examining this connection in an aesthetic manner, but following and creating new forms and rhythms with the possibilites of the digital instrument. In Anoxi the elements in the picture are melting into new forms, separating and coming together in continuous transformation and variation. - Mika Taanila, Avanto, Helsinki

That brute matter be self-conscious is exactly a logical mistake, obscene in the meaning it has to be out of the scene; it's not a rhetorical paradox, it is exactly an error.

Subject and object blend into a single image that looks at itself, generating a cyclical, timeless self-referentiality.

Backing Away from Yayoi Kusama
2mn35 color stereo 2016 USA
by Neil Needleman
self-production
self-distribution
The tongue-in-cheek title of this brief video is meant to taken literally, not figuratively. My admiration for Kusama’s wonderful art remains firmly intact. I am NOT backing away from her in an aesthetical sense. In this video, however, I am quite literally backing away from one of her enormous canvases in the Clark Art Institute, slowly, with my camera facing the painting, As I shuffle backward from a close-up of a single oval dot on the canvas, more and more oval dots are revealed. Soon, they become a galaxy of dots. Ultimately, the entire huge painting can be seen. However, in my backward move, a series of vertical “windows” opens in the screen, each one showing a different detail of the abstract painting, and each window joining in my slow backward march. With each new window, your spatial relationship to the painting is altered. Once the entire painting is revealed, the camera pans right to give a quick glimpse of the gallery in the museum. And, finally, the vertical “windows” dissolve away.

The premonition of spore power and fragility of giants creates a feeling of weakness and a fear of being trapped into multilayered systems. The stringing of events almost runs out of time to make an impression. The connection of particles is not interrupted by the jeopardy of solitaires.

"Time has not been kind to Kasimir Malevich’s painting, Black Square. In 1915 when the work was first displayed the surface of the square was pristine and pure; now the black paint has cracked revealing the white ground like mortar in crazy paving." This film documents a tedious process of dismantling and reassembling 16 mm found footage. The film collage imitates functions of a curtain, while the recorded optical track describes the film's subsequent destruction during its first projection.

Black Salt Water Elegy

by Solomon Nagler
self-production
self-distribution
A short film that weaves together original and archival material to create an ethereal narrative texture, "Black Saltwater Elegy" intimately links the discordant threads of a popular history of dispossession (Africville) with the solitude of its protagonist's graveyard-shift fantasies. After opening with disquieting archival footage of the demolition of Africville, the film shifts to an austere observational portrait. A palatable sense of the duration of midnight work slowly shifts into subtle gestures that hint towards choreographed events. Eventually, a breech occurs as the protagonist fuses with an emergent dreamscape, where ruined landscapes and the resurrection of an extinct community intertwine. Using the protagonist's disembodied point of view, the audience floats above a reconstructed Africville, one forever present, nesting in a bed of saltwater fog.

It intertwines narratives of human journeys with those of travelling waters in a vivid expression of colour, energy, and motion. Animated figures of rippling water portray an ongoing flow of humanity, a testament to both constant change and continued endurance. A wide range of emotion is conveyed by the fluctuating character of the water, and through the posture and movements of the individuals.

”boop-oop-a-doop” is an observation and investigation of our daily life and plays with three different elements : creation of identity, media culture, and our own desire to be somebody else. By taking up two prominent figures in mass media culture, namely Marilyn Monroe and Betty Boop, the project focuses on how these three elements intermingle with each other, re-enforcing each element each time. Marilyn Monroe became an icon of the 20th century. She represented sensualism, sweetness and vulnerability, indeed all the characteristics that were and still are recognised as ”desirable” for a woman. She is the ultmate female whom both men and women equally adore and idolise; men wish to be with her and women desire to be like her. This ”wish/desire” is probably what keeps Marilyn Monroe still ”alive” as one of the biggest icons even 40 years after her death...

In this one-shot video we witness a representation of life’s flux via an organic collage of layered reflections and manipulated audio taken from the source footage.

Natural elements set this scene, as the subject’s luminiferous body contorts and dissipates into the dark landscape. Its position and form changes as it appears to straddle multiple places - the illusion created by nature, the distortions made by the artist.

"Breaking Up Is Hard to Do" evokes such loss and anxiety. Landscapes are internal, psychological. Melodrama is used as a manageable sentimental site. Arrested, moving canvases are a replayed accident: reflecting, refocusing, and reappropriating re-membered Self-parts. These environments are facets, the last drawing on Constructivism’s antithesis to Modernism, as earthing, rebuilding, to conclude as a narrative. Each environment is a facet of experience, while the last canvas draws on Russian Constructivism’s antithesis to Modernism, as earthing, building, retrieval of parts, to conclude as a narrative.

Like Jeanne d'Arc in front of the scaffold, clueless. Finally, a fight, they come to get her, the redeeming handshake. Out of the hands, on the hands, that’s how you can read broken time: because something is eliminated, combed, scratched and lovely caressed. Perhaps the velvet
glove is the connecting through time. For an alliance it´s taken off. Something is sealed: memory and dream play off against each other, the best fighter will be adopted. And ultimately it burns to
ashes, the famous story, it was all a dream. Maybe she was the boy that she kissed, at least she resembles him. The image section and traces on the material are covering the secret. Serious men
come up to exterminate her. "Deform Your Dreams" as the only liberation.

“By Blood and Water, By Blood and Sand” is a video montage of two contrasting landscapes - the lush coastal hill country of the South West North Island of New Zealand and the contemporary American South West (with a brief interlude over Siberia). This video includes references of environmental degradation and post-nuclear Armageddon, as suggested by the tropes of dripping blood and large Kafkaesque insects (such as those that populate many post nuclear war horror films). "Wildfire" had touched all areas in the clips of the American South West. Climate change has significantly extended the wildfire season. Meanwhile deep sea drilling and fracking are proceeding unabated in New Zealand. (Soundtrack: "Little Rose" by The Black Twig Pickers, permission by and courtesy of Thrill Jockey)

"Cahiers 1-4" is a video in four chapters: Isabelle Come Back, Jane Fonda, Getting Marnie Out of the House. The title of the project references the film journal Cahiers du Cinema. Working with diverse cultural forms - cinema, the home movie, the music video - Cahiers 1-4 draws us into parallel narratives. Here the narratives that are woven into our everyday environment are pulled and stretched to reveal and repeat themselves in the hope that though this we can become actors in our own life.

Whilst we remain safe and sound, watching the highest grossing cat fail compilation - all that is kept out of sight gets back to us in this consumerist nightmare. On a global playground, without bounds, the cat’s body is devoured, exploited and controlled - its fear of pain being stronger than its longing for freedom. Objects are fetishized and subjects made into things that are quantifiable and ready for use. They are the natural resources of a luxury they will never know. We are here because you were there – and 1 waste is dumped in the ocean. In the end, bodies reveal the causes and effects of power, pleasure and hate.

Time is relentless. I'm worried, watching a puddle of water invisibly evaporate before my eyes, asking myself what will remain as I deal with the fallout of an ancestry that is slowly, mercilessly vanishing from this earth. I miss their bodily presence but that's not the only sorrow I feel. I grieve the loss of guided wisdoms, collective histories and the stories I was never told. Filmed over a period of two months in late 2008 as I helplessly watched my mother lose her battle with cancer, the single channel video. Capsule is a personal journey as well as an urgent inventory of the precious, final moments I wished to collect and suspend in time. Past blends with present as bedtime stories, children's toys and old photographs attempt to counter the distressing reality of syringes, bandages, get-well cards, and the last birthday we celebrated together as a family.

The various Chinese people: worker, policemen, emperor of Qing Dynasty, the intellectuals, monk, old people, children, beggar, farmer worker, judge, etc. have been imaged with their most remarkable characters, morals and habitualness. In this film, through the stare between you and them just like a photograph, you’ll wait for an certain thing happen in a quiescent time and space. And the thing is an image interaction relationship of conflict, counterwork and dialogue.

"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." R. Buckminster Fuller. The main trigger concept is what we call here decrescita felice, degrowth, focusing on sustainability. Chronoscope is apparently a way to see the past, but what if the past tells us more about the future than we usually think? We are now in a point where we should just take a step back. Ephemeralization is not the answer maybe, but this ephemeral symbol, the butterfly, stands for self-organizing, self-regulated, self-sufficient - but never fixed or rigid - systems in nature, that can help us to reimagine an ecological approach.

Europe is like a "site specific" where there is a juxtaposition of the physical space, the geopolitical space and network virtual media. A journey through sound and image processing referencing filmic imagery of the cultural construction of Europe, imagery that contrasts with the “visual” content of moving images which are extracted from the virtual network of those crossing the borders of Europe “without permission” (Melilla, 2014). In turn, such images are interfered with by visual noise from a “TV” without broadcast. As a found-footage piece I recompose the image no longer with the “matter” of the film, but with pixels of the media that mediate us. I experimented with the materiality of the rhythmic interferences that textualize the image, transforming the “objective” media perspectives into “subjective” auteur perspectives that ironically play with visual and audible “noise” to deconstruct the memory judgments of the informational present. P.D. ODE Europe is a Work posthumously dedicated to all those who have died crossing our borders...

Contact examines the moments of emotional climax when the ordinary people rise up to become the sublime subjects of Ideology by means of corporeal touch like shaking hands and hugging. The shots extracted from these films are kept at its original length and the artist argued that while working on such a critical subject, keeping the integrity of the shot is the least he can do, in a moral way.

It's uncommon circular formula comes from the fact that it was made, in the beginning, to be projected onto the interior vaulting of a polystyrene cell shaped like an igloo replaced today by a floating projection shell made of cloth and a round carpet on the floor.

"Correspondances" (matches) is to be taken in every sense of the word. The film begins in the subways of various cities. An escalator takes you from Barcelona to Kyoto via Berlin. Images of the world sent by a press correspondent, anecdotes told in letters to friends, to relatives, from a correspondent. But they are also the coïncidences between the images and the sounds which, sliding over each other, seem to have affinities, to create links, to make sense. Sense yet always fugitive, already other before being really intelligible. Moving strata of images spread a part of the illusions that we share in our constant search for concordances, correlations and harmony.

Centered on a misguided attempt at a neighbourly gesture, the residents of a cul-de-sac manage to avoid interaction despite their geographical closeness. Cove’s structure reflects the characters’ self-absorption, drifting into their individual worlds and we become lost in their preoccupations with mashed potato, blood and perfecting a homemade bee suit.

In Crop Duster Octet, the iconic “crop duster”sequence from Hitchcock’s North by Northwest in which Cary Grant is repeatedly attacked by a small airplane swooping from the sky is deconstructed into eight horizontal bands, each of which is slightly out of synch with the next. As the scene (and, in particular, Grant’s body) is continuously deconstructed,the patterns of action are refigured and intensified, culminating in a crescendo of convergence. -- Jaimie Baron, LA Filmforum

self-distribution
The work "Crossing" is a confrontation of two different time-structures. On one hand there is a repetitive form, the track of the car with "on the rear-seat" the public. On the other hand there is my performance, a linear time-structure : passing ± 5 meters of street in 30 minutes time.
The public is confronted with different stages of this performance only five times during their trip. Further on they know the performance is going on in their absence. The crossing is so slowly (only a few millimeters every step), that for the carpassengers it is not noticeable as actually "moving". It is not a work for looping as an installation. It is really meant for screening and watching it the 31 minutes. If you decide to show it, please show it in that way.

I wanted to film the forest as if it was the only possible world, a world which would be less of a reinvention than a withdrawal, to assist in its tumbling and capture the nudity. Each branch, each drop and each refection becomes therefore the receptacle of a living earth where the membranes swollen with light pulsate a sort of pantheist celebration. One had to therefore become child, become animal, to scatter for the most brutal reality bears properly phantasmagoric visions, then finally attain what is real via the biggest aesthetic violence. Not through a story but an itinerary, a palpable adventure, an experience.

"Deflection" consists of variations through optical and acoustic static movements. Footage of natural events exhibiting chaotic behaviour serves as the raw material. Through different temporal manipulations, these visual and acoustic movements become dynamic systems. The original phenomena lose their cognitive value, cause illusions, and arouse associations with elements that have similar patterns of movement. Image and sound are united and link various contents that infinitely superimpose and supplement one another while freely evolving. Everything is interconnected, interrelated, interdependant: every part of the entity is an entity in itself.

Deltitnu

by Alessandro Sau & Maria Rosaria Soldi
self-production
self-distribution
Based on 'The 120 Days of Sodom' by the Marquis de Sade, 'Deltitnu' is the main title for a work formed by two episodes. 'The four fuckers' is the first chapter of a story that deals with the problem of image in relation to language. Aesthetic categories of taste are questioned as linguistic rules of perversion and domain on image. The language which does not subjugate itself to image, and on the contrary it makes image slave to it, ends up revolving within itself to the ultimate meaninglessness of shit.
The second chapter , 'Veris leta facies', emphasizes the intrinsic relationship of vice with taste, which is behind the gradual decline of image's power in favor to every other value legitimized by art history and men of good taste. This video shows how such overpowering link between language and image, not only subverts the anthropological values of image itself, but it also throws back in crisis the artist and his traditional role of creator.

This short work utilizes imprints from Soviet-era film leader culled from dozens of films viewed while working as an artist in residence in Dushanbe, Tajikistan in 2014. The material was largely 1980’s-era educational and propaganda films that contained a broad range of content, but had only subtle variations on more or less the same leader. Foregrounding the often ignored hand-written or machine printed artifacts found on leader, the imprints become the primary source material for a psychotronic audio/visual salvo set to an original score.

A short I realized during the workshop, Demonio! Demonio! with Bedwyr Williams and Tai Shani, curated by the Institute of things to come, at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin. We were asked to write and interpret a demonic monologue digging into some personal anecdotes. My own was pretty cathartic. Sources of inspiration were Innocenzo Spinazzi’s marble statue, La Religione aka La Velata, now at GAM museum and Cesare Lombroso, the Museum of Criminal Anthropology and one of his seminal texts, The criminal woman: the prostitute, the normal woman (1893). Some effects processed in the US, during a residency at Signal Culture.

Following the stream of memory, it is as if one is in the three cities at the same time, thinking the same thing, chasing the same ghosts from the past. Removed from reality Elie Barrau’s city vistas seem to take place in a distant time-sphere. The concept of time is taken apart, time seems to flow at different speeds. Combining still photography and film footage, the spectator needs some time to realize that parts of the video are actually in flux, and not still-images. Suddenly one realizes the erratic movement of cars deep down on the streets of Chicago or the subtle blowing of wind in the hair of a woman in Venice.

self-distribution
In the center of Hamburg, a man walks with a ladder which he leans against an old street light to pour a package of flour over its roof. The flour flutters to the sidewalk for a brief moment, before the man leaves the scene of the event again. The flour is a gift to unknown persons, a gesture of generosity. While in french language „fleur de farine“ means extremely fine flour, in English language "flour" and "flower" sound confusingly similar. By inversion of words, by breaking with linguistic requirements, things changes the attributes and the distribution of flour becomes a gesture of generosity. Benjamin Yavuzsoy's performance video is dedicated to the work "With Magritte" (Year: 1993) by Eran Schaerf, on which Rene Magritte's drawing "The man with the rose" can be seen.

Recent technological changes have transformed natural and rural environments, to the point of
producing uniform, ever-more polluted environments in their stead. Uprooted probes these territories fashioned by man, deciphering in them his relationship to his environment, thereby questioning his ways of being. Critical of environmental and urban developments, this video explores the peripheries of some North American cities, strangely alike from one to the next, in that none of them feels like
somewhere. Their excessively wide spaces, standardized and shapeless, generate a sense of uneasiness. Urban upheavals can turn the most familiar locale into an unrecognizable, anonymous, even forbidding place. On this blank slate, local memory is forever erased.

"Deux femmes (for Man Ray)" creates a dialogue with Man Ray’s porno footage that was found in his atelier after his death in a canister titled “Deux Femmes”, shot in 1937. Man Ray’s preoccupation with the female body as sculpture and the imminence of amateur pornography today, were what necessitated a dialogue to me. Adhering to his particular compositions and actions within them, I collected matching shots from online amateur pornos. Then I printed the frames, and presented them in the video as a paper stack. This unhurried process of paper stacking slows down the otherwise speedy porn media consumption and allows us to examine the female body as sculpture today.

Their presence in the heart of the film represents the limit; it's when the image and the sound contain that which justifies their existence. This film is therefore the research of theobscurity behind each image and the silence behind each sound. This justifies the film beginning and ending in a cemetery.

A filmmaker and a dancer meet in the same location twice a day - once in the early morning, once in the late afternoon - for five consecutive days. They create a series of ten in-camera 16mm films: a piece that maps the progression of improvised dance and cinematography and their collaborative relationship. Both artists untether their training in premeditated construction and make, act, compose, move, see, and interact in the moment. Can the camera act as a dynamic partner, more than simply a new "stage" or documenting device for the dancer? Can the dancer be more than a subject embedded within the frame and altered by the cut?

The body needs light, color, movement to be revealed. It becomes luminous intensity and screen in the dreamlike and unconscious projections. Light and color, by attacking (affecting) the body, the landscape, the image as surface, snatch the glance, seize it. They allow to reach another level of the image : its thickness. Torn, damaged, shared between what is and what was, images re-appear, real or fantasized, made by rhythmic and semantic faults. The temporality is flexible : stop on image, slow motion, acceleration, the time is dilated, interrupted, contracted. Frozen, image and body have the possibility of being at the same time as we, to belong to the same temporality.

Ecstasy
12mn42 color & b/w stereo 2015 China
by Di Hu
self-production
self-distribution
This video is an analytical montage of shots extracted from more than 60 films from the Chinese Cultural Revolution period. It exclusively studies the moments of the interpellation of the Ideology (Louis Althusser) which are represented physically by music, words, gazes, gestures and situations found in these films. I keep every shot at its original length because the shot is the minimal unit of the cinema. When we work on such a critical subject, keeping the integrity of the shot is the least we can do, in a moral way. Strictly speaking, Ecstasy does not lend itself to a specific synopsis, but this does not mean that there is nothing to look at in it. The multiple symbols and meanings extracted from a wide range of shots make up the narratives found in this video: The resemblance of the music in different films, the dramatic gazes with catchlights (like they are absorbed by an overwhelming feeling of great excitement, where the title Ecstasy comes from), the repetition of the words (like ‘Mao Zhuxi’, Chairman Mao), the robotic gestures (raising one’s head, turning around), the faces with tears, the symbolic objects which reincarnate the transmission of ecstasy (like needle, spanner and apple) and the exaggerated film techniques (close-up, zoom in). This video is one of a series of videos and they are not only reexaminations of the cinema of that period but also reflections of history as told through cinema.

The Budapest bathing culture is a rich cultural heritage. But while inside, there's mainly tourists swimming, dissonant sounds from outside seem to disturb the flow of images ...
On observing people's bathing in different baths of the hungarian capital, a speech from the off is heard: Balázs Nagy Navarro talks on occasion of a hunger strike agains media manipulation in public media in december 2011.
The rhapsody as a poetic composition refers to the "good old times" that seem to be preserved in the baths of Budapest. Many residents can't afford regular visits of the Széchenyi or Gellért bath while Lukács is mainly frequented for curatorial reasons.
The recordings were made in 2009 and 2010 at different seasons. The idyllic image of the baths doesn't seem to be more distorted by the modernization to wellness temples but by the changed political situation in the country.
Not only since the controverse media laws of Orbán's government there's international worries about the future of democratic freedom in the country.
Navarro and others protested against a singular case of manipulated reporting as well as the media policy of the rightwing Fidesz-government in general.
As a consequence of this protest Navarro, who was previously employed by the channel that he protested against, has been suspended from his work.
In his speech as well as in the sentimental goodbye-song at the end of the video the word "ELÉG" is central: it is ENOUGH.

"Ely" has been a space mission, the last of the Space Era. "Ely" was the woman I loved before leaving the Earth. "Ely" was a young girl, maybe mine. "Ely", the far away planet I've orbited around for years. "Ely" became the name of planet Earth. Once back the Sun's light was just like it had been when as kids we used to observe the dust in the thin air of our indian summer. Once back the time hadn't come yet to understand, cry or remember.

Embraced

by Brice Bowman
self-production
self-distribution
Despite not having much belief in my ability to explain my movies and indeed the want to not waste my time as I am an image maker and not a writer (as is clearly evident) I recognize it is at minimum ironic there are certain films of mine in making them words flow out of me in what I would describe as automatistical, to use an early mondernity concept (which is not so surprising given at a point in my history I was highly involved with Abstract Expressionism, a movement I completely reject now as flat out wrong). The idea of my film Embraced is connected to the embraced manner art embraces artists and the way in which an artist embraces art not so dissimilar to lovers. Beyond this I suppose worth noting is that Embraced also is another of my films that seeks to record and express the atmosphere possessed by certain places that are "charged" from previous noteworthy art having been created in that specific place, and EMBRACED is a product of this intrigue. Embraced is filmed in Arles, France during autumn 2011. During this period I was involved in making a new film in the region and thus was out looking for appropriate geographical places to shot and was in fact solely using my artistic senses as a compass to decide as where next to wander and film. This lead me to a field not previously known to me where I spent the entire morning and entire afternoon filming trying to capture "this place"-- only to quite joyously discover at the end of my day that I had been filming in a field that Vincent Van Gogh had painted in during 1888. I found it very satisfying (to say the least) to know that two artists at different points in time artistically migrated to the same geographical place intrigued to capture that which is inherently there and "that there" only to become ever more charged subsequent to profound art being created there adding to the mystic of the geographical milieu of a place.

Through a mixture of images and textures, a troubled and moving frame, an inversion of proportions, sounds and music from the depths, Equinode creates an immersive, mysterious and disquieting experience, an aquatic poetry, a dive into the abyss. Equinode tends to make us feel, interrogate, probe our influence as human beings among a multitude of creatures that surround us, even constitute us, and of which we care so little.

The correlation between the juxtaposed movies, the sounds and the voices, takes shape in the screen a movie in perpetual questioning and renewal. The technic and the process of electronic iteration make off giving way to a surrealist poetic dimension, a film improvisation.

The realignment restores the strangeness of the bodies and the faces. The images are released from their initial function. The model is moved and leaves place with sensitive, with the individual.

The absurd depends as much on man as on the world. For the moment it is all that links them together. It binds them one to the other as only hatred can weld two creatures together.” – Albert Camus “I want to do a piece where I go to the Alps and talk to a mountain. The mountain will talk of things which are necessary and always true, and I shall talk of things which are sometimes, accidentally true.” – Bas Jan Ader

A real "shopping of life" among all the shelves of supermarkets and corner stores of the everyday life staging. Film sequences, known or not, they are gone somewhere else to play a score that wasn't their.

Flight
11mn12 color & b/w sil 2018 USA
by Brice Bowman
self-production
distribution : Canyon Cinema
FLIGHT symbolically uses airplanes to represent society's effort to experience "something" out-of-body, indeed a spirit that flies. And the spirit still flies after individuals die; their experiences and connections to people as life is lived set to flight contrails existence that enters people known to the individual by way of their sociological activities and family gatherings from this their live extend beyond the life they lived from physical birth to physical death so in that way people live forever or at minimum it can takes decades and decades if not hundreds of years for their spirit to stop being experienced by individuals. In Brice Bowman's film FLIGHT the spreading of human spirit is both achieved and experienced by such sociological ceremonies as dance as archetype and as a means of "flight" from the mundaneness of everyday experiences of life in rituals. Even something as simple as a child using "riding-horse" sets the spirit to flight in the imagination. This notion is father depicted in the film by adults in FLIGHT using model airplanes as they take flight in the film to represent souls taking off into the universe go wherever they go. Also interestingly Brice Bowman once again uses the "in-between moments" in the manner that film captures human activity on film that is, the in-between frames to represent the spirit or souls of the people either while they are alive or as trails of their being after they have flown to the next life. Another provocative symbol in the FLIGHT is the existence of water in the film as a symbolic for the subconscious to make contact with their genealogical heritage as a member of their families and to a larger degree society as a whole. The final scene is about departing the known physical life and passing into "other world".

So far or so close, we never see Floodland. Some people says they went there,some celebrities use to spend a few time under the channel and sometimes the fun starts 30,000 feet underneath the sea.

The video works with the body as an object that creates and carries time through motion. Through the process of video editing, the speed and rhythm of time are altered and reorganised.

« Fractions » is a seven part film. Seven sequences, each with a pattern and a reference to a text of a political nature, to create a space for reflection on the scope and responsibility of these images. Between self-portrait and testimony, each fraction is an autonomous thinking, remaining yet necessary to the overall restitution of a personal research on film practice, in correlation with the emancipatory thinking. The images then become a pretext for this reflection, freed from their narrative and documentary nature, the site of a more intimate experience. This work draws the accomplishment of several years of reading, strewed with fleeting moments of reality captured instinctively with my camera, all reworked and remodeled with traditional cinema tools.

A steady supply of frogs was needed to supply these answers, and the artist's father made his living fishing swamps for this very purpose.

Force of an air influence gives compound psychophysical experiences. Something tries to establish a certain transcendental dialogue which sets in for a moment, but then disappears … At one time the wind accompanied by low monotonous organ noise, brings motionless sitting people to certain unconsciousness, to mad activity: fight is started at the concert.

This video is a study of various "futuristic" edifices altered slightly in video software: a contemporary cargo ship, various airport terminals, the Auckland Sky Tower and the Seattle Space Needle. When I was young, most of us were convinced that the future would be far different than it turned out to be. We would either be living in George Jetson elevated homes (modelled in part on the 1962 Seattle Space needle)… or if we survived an expected nuclear war, we’d be living in a post-apocalyptic nuclear winter. Fortunately neither happened. http://vimeo.com/19404340

How things can change in just fifteen days. (I have hidden an object per day to still life while flowers were being dried). The video is part of my project to revitalize the still life as a genre renewed by the time factor and the movement of the video as a medium. Revisiting the classic genre of still life, inspired by Flemish painting and by Caravaggio's paintings, shapes and colors are enhanced by the light contrasting with the black background. Whereas in paintings subjects are in complete stillness, in videos there is the fourth dimension, time, which gives further metaphorical depth to the image.

In this video, industrial architecture (quaint, but ominous in their decay) vie with striking NZ landscape rendered in virtual 3D. Actual footage is combined with the 3D alternate reality of flyovers of Solaris-like islands such as a factory ruin that segues into a clip of a NZ park built during the work programs of the Great Depression - a unique landscape rich in both Ponga fern trees and redwoods, part Jurassic Park and part northern California.

"Hasta Nunca" follows MARIO LIGETTI, a middle aged hipster DJ who produces an underground radio show in Montevideo, Uruguay. On his show Secrets and Stories he invites listeners to share their intimate thoughts with him and a live radio audience. Mario re-negotiates his public and private personas during the course of the film and enters into an extra marital affair with JULIA, a divorcee searching for a new artistic spark. In this international production (USA, Uruguay) each call in to the show was written and performed by local actors. Topics addressed in telephone conversations: lingering effects of the military dictatorship in Uruguay, the difficulty of obtaining an -illegal- abortion and varied identity issues. Ligetti’s show is a modern rollicking Miss Lonelyhearts, with its host increasingly suffocated by the personal predicaments of his listeners. Shot in cinéma vérité style, Hasta Nunca reveals Montevideo as a strong background character in the film’s visual landscape. Callers' voices on the radio provide an acoustic counterpoint for an observational investigation of this ramshackle port city which retains the architectural vestiges of its colonial past.

Squealing trains, fighting flies, a "hatchet" refrain chugging like a train or train of thought stuck in a mind locked in madness or fear. The piece is a fright of fancy, a poem part rage, part fear.

The video HISTORY IS NOT MINE, is a direct response to the censorship of the Technologia installation at the event Printemps de septembre in Toulouse in 2012. On this occasion, the installation, combining circular forms of Koranic verses with elements inspired from the Rotoreliefs of Marcel Duchamp had been withdrawn by the organization due to incidents and protests caused by passers-by. In this black and white video, the artist, his back to the camera, is typing the title using hammers. The ribbon alone is red, suggesting that the text appears in letters of blood, in a telescoping of "the beauty of the phrase to write with violence and the difficulty of carrying it out."

What makes sense.Why must be a sense. Will be there a sense at all at the end. A journey into the weird subconsciousness, passing by dreams, inner strifes, sensualities and the even more hidden sexual, erotic dreams and desires. A journey which could turn out to be sinister, freightening but also unearthy.

A villa surrounded by secular trees in the South of Italy. A secret path to the sea. A small church where lie the bodies of mummified monks. The ruins of an ancient city eaten by the sea...

Could I remember every detail of the moments we spent together during those summer days? What have we left behind us?

Contemplation could be an act of sensitive rebellion. An eye that unlearns laws from the gaze of "colonizer". Yellow has become an illegal color in Catalonia because it is a symbol for the freedom of Catalan political prisoners. The Spanish state can not prohibit that the flowers of the mimosas can return to bloom. Like painting a time, with a playful montage of yellow sea caressed by the wind. Homage to "“Imagine an eye unruled by man-made laws..." by Stan Brakhage and the political prissoners: Oriol Junqueras, Joaquim Forn, Jordi Sànchez & Jordi Cuixart.

Few times a week we used to go to visit my grandparents in an other village five kilometers south from where we lived. My grandparents were nice people, old farmers very friendly and hilarious. They were my mother's father and mother and even if she used to say that they did not treat her good when she was a kid I had nothing against them. They lived in an old house in the countryside with lots of animals. I remember that single day because while my mother was chatting with her mother and my grandfather was out, I sneaked into my uncle's room and by chance I found under his bed a porn magazine.

Study of the face like landscape, screen of the emotions, metaphor of the passage of time and the contradictions that nest in the construction of me.
The light as matter of the form, of what the eye sees and does not sees. Direct to the perceptions broken down the given thing like real. Game of shades talking in a mute alphabet on the identity and your fragility. In a world in which the social structure is cracked, where the communication has developed into a game of abalorios and the poetry looks again for your horizon.

Two points of view of the same series of shots, are presented through two different frames. Sculptures come to life, while humane face tries to fit in between them. The research of a true point of view interrogates the images of this video. A vibratory movement, with different rhythms, crosses the two screens and provokes a sparkling of the images. By exploring different levels of visibility, an interrogation about the persistence of vision is constructed. Are we nearer to the images or to their deletion.

The video "Immagine" is the story of Eve and the forbidden fruit. The first of many stories of the Old Testament in which food is involved. A religion story which takes cultures and immemorial traditions texts and evokes two wonderful trees whose fruits are able to give knowledge and immortality. Cautionary tale, common to all religions, which sets scenes constant and unfailing links between religion and food, between food and prohibits, between prohibited and transgression, between transgression and punishment. The use of secrecy, mystery, dogma, and the divine law by religions. A human construction of a system of obstruction against the legitimate hunger for knowledge and freedom.

The moving picture takes the classical theme of the “nude” in a contemporary interpretation as a psychological condition.
The viewer is confronted with different levels of movements of baring/exposing, but is disturbing intimacy, the process of emptiness. Emptiness in the sense of meditating.
The nude is a metaphor. The Inability of Being Nude becomes the inability of exposing one’s entire internal to other people, including those who are most intimate and this could be the viewer himself. This inability is in the same way protecting as separating.

Starting as found 16mm film, the material has been interpreted and modified as it moves back and forth between digital and analog processing systems. Images of airplanes dominate, their suspension is associated with the space that surrounds them; they are neither her nor there, but repetitively percing on screen space. They move to the long, low sounds originated through audio loops created in an Internet streaming process. The edge of the frame also acknowledges what is usually not seen, making its presence known as a reoccuring element. While the video itself was born out of technical inquiry, the tonality located in the emotional; the distance created via processing evokes longing, and disquiet.

In its centre , between the West and the East : the stream, the crowd, as a mass spreading in total fluidity. In the mesmerism of what is turning, as a perpetual movement, a sleepwalking vision. In its series, its beats, in the rhythms provided by the editing , independently of any sound track, the image itself generating the sound, interwoven with the rumors of the city, to the drone of the megalopolis.

"Internal Friction" consists of energy constellations of heterogeneous intensities. These particulate entities interact by resonance between multiple levels of perception, in echo with concave and convex territories subjected to a constant redefinition of scale. The continuity of perception is laminated and made spasmodic by a dynamic and dialogical evolution between the local components and the total movement spiralic.

Isle Of Lox "Without Light and Guide"
6mn02 color stereo 2013 Spain
by Leyla Rodriguez & Cristian Straub
self-production
self-distribution
"Isle of Lox"'s second season explores further ramifications resulting from the tensed relationship between framework and identity. Which cut of which image is the true representation of which period of time? Mediaval Spanish mystic and friar Juan de la Cruz, more precisely his poem "The Dark Night", serves as an inspiration and a guideline in the creation of the three episodes "Without Light and Guide", "Senses Suspended" and "Members of the audience". Juan's poem is both, a cry for help and a doxology. The dark night is not only a metaphor, but can also be read in a rather profance way: the disorientation and different forms of anxieties experienced during long winter nights, the longing for light and closeness. The second coming of Lox also marks a change in the apparition of the main performers. Leylox and Krilox have evolved into Leyla and Cristian, whose striking resemblance to "Isle of Lox" Creators Leyla Rodriguez and Cristian Straub can hardly be denied. In "Without Light and Guide" Leyla and Cristian are preparing the setting for a film they're about to shoot. Their main actor is a toy puppy named Dogggy. After doing some research and going underground for a while, Leyla and Cristian start searching the perfect reflection. Finally, soon after the film in film featuring Dogggy begins a saboteur emerges. He tries to fight the video-projection with his flashlight, he's an anti-projector. After a violent (and random) image-editing the screen finally collapses and makes way for a restart.

"Je pense à toi, Mon Amour" is about complex passions artists experience with things (such as Cezanne's Ste.

"Je pense à toi, Mon Amour" takes a look at the emotions viewers of art experience in viewing works of "art-things" forever viewed differently through the possession of that object through the psyche of the artist's creative processing.

Jones Falls flows into Baltimore and becomes a small river as the expressway and railway run parallel within city limits. Its long history as a transportation corridor spans contamination from runoffs to environmental recovery movements. However, in a sea of human habitation, stormwater and sewage systems are in continual degradation. These affected areas still remain with much natural splendor despite manmade strife. After a precarious course, Jones Falls empties into the seemingly immaculate Inner Harbor as its main tributary. There is with strong reason to stay hopeful about the future health of Jones Falls. It is an astonishing conduit no matter concern for mesmeric or manufactured appeal.

Europeans living in Morocco without a working residence permit have a tourist visa for 3 months. If they want to stay legally in the country for more than 3 months they have to go to the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta or Melilla to have their passports stamped. Many Europeans live in Morocco for years doing that simple trip to Ceuta every month. When I was in Morocco for 6 months I also went to Ceuta to have my passport and my daughter’s stamped to stay longer in the country. These images were taken in Ceuta one Sunday. I had a camera and filmed. Before I crossed the border between Morocco and Spain I looked around me into the hills. I saw migrants looking at the borders from the top of the hill. I realised that they live in those hills, in the woods for weeks or even years: waiting. Waiting for the right time to cross.

3mn44 color dolby stéréo 2017 France
by Isabel Pérez del Pulgar
self-production
self-distribution
The alternation of schedules and shifts in alternate weeks causes an alteration of the perception of time, meal schedules and sleep. Permanent electrical light in workspaces causes confusion and extranet with respect to timetables and sunlight. The constant noise throughout the day, the lack of communication, repetitive movements, the rhythm of the conveyor belts, the small mobility space, the forced postures, the demands of speed in the execution of the task, the wounds on the hands as a result of the pressure and handling of the knives... all this causes a state of strong stress and anxiety. All the activity is marked by the times from one day to the next in an exact and repetitive way. Succeeding the days in a continuous line divided by invisible weekends. There is a detachment or unfolding of the "I" within a timeless abyss, in which a dance is created, a choreography of self-sufficient women. Life becomes an alienating loop. The rhythm and execution of the film was conceived as the projection of a film, with the idea of creating the perception of an endless loop. The luminous and chromatic changes are differentiating between the external and internal space of L´usine, as well as a retrospection to silent cinema. For the realization of the project I used footages and public domain sounds.

Are our nights restless, nightmarish because we are afraid of not seeing or is it fear that obscures our senses? To be in the Night and to see, to fear because we see, turning back, wavering, to reflect upon one's own existence, to leave or to keep going. Keep going because the circle is not complete. Unless the circle spirals and so can never lead to an end, but becomes and always grows. We are deaf and blind, we can see at night, we are clairvoyant. We are dead and we are alive. The Night - is it black, luminous or white ?

The output of the Fralib factory in Gémenos, product with the workers in struggle occupying the site, was filmed with the CCTV system installed by their former employer, the multinational Unilever. During the shooting (only internet found footage re-shot) super 8 and 35mm amateur old movies have been used and their frames were physically overlapped to the optics of the camera, determining the transparency of color and brightness. Other analogical filters, such as magnifying and distorting ones, old lenses of cameras, cardboard tubes and plastic, glass jars and colored plastics have been used.The tension to the invisible, to the nebulous that passes through the analogical and the filmic, is an aesthetic position that nostalgically jokes with the hyper realism of the contemporary preoccupation with high definition.”

For the realisation of this video, my method was to first of all choose a poem : "Discours pour les grandes jours d'un jeune homme appelé Picasso" d'Aragon. The final objective was to find a structure, codes proper to the video which would permit the establishment of a new form of poetry. The interest shown in artists writing has influenced this choice. My aim is not to propose an illustration of Aragons' poetic text, even less to plate him with images. But, by video, I try to reproduce with the spectator the effects, the emotions which a poetic text produces in its reader. I therefore transcribed this poem into images without going via illustration which heads back to the idea of copy.

This constructed image reflects our split up feelings, activated by our manipulated and organized contemporary views.

Dada was a Dadaist, and that drove him to business. Now, a dying old man, a wildly successful international business tycoon watches one of his free-spirited father’s bizarre videos and talks about his contentious relationship with his late dad. Their relationship was one of art versus commerce ; the love ambiguity and surprise versus the need for order and defined meaning. Then again, this maybe this is just pure gibberish.

The capsized boat was found by chance on the north east coast of Sri Lanka. It was my second visit to the country where I grew up in twenty years. While I had clear memories of where I’m from, it is of course very different from reality and I was moved to see it with eyes of an adult. The overturned boat is a reminder of the destructions of a resent past- a world left up side down.

Climate change “has not only become a piece of news, not only a story, not only a drama, but also the plot of a tragedy. And a tragedy that is so much more tragic than all the earlier plays, since it seems now very plausible that human actors may arrive too late on the stage to have any remedial role…” –Bruno Latour How do you document a geological feeling? « Late Anthropocene » is a register of the psychic fractures created by unprecedented planetary unsettling, a work of mourning, and a meditation on the bewilderment of the human species.

"Latte de cowboy" is a found footage music video experimenting with the idea above, going as far as to test the Koulechov system (editing and acting) in a supposedly impossible/unfeasible shot reverse shot. It’s the film aesthetic of the firearm that links one genre to the other, from westerns to thrillers and back. “The shot went off and…
The bullet will have entered one ear of humanity to come out of the other!”
(Karl Krauss)
This music video was made for the band La Villageoise in 2015. The song Latte de Cowboy is taken from their first album Automne.

Le Bal is developed from footage produced by an insurance company in the 1950s to praise their postwar participation in the rebuilding of my grandmother’s village in Belgium. Different technological and technical layers (the images were shot on film, broadcast on television, taped on VHS and finally converted to digital) blur the memory of a dance whose participants are unknown. Ghostly faces interweave, interlace and circle, brushing past the camera and staring at us, before disappearing in the dark.

The video "Le Patient" is a personal statement which came to exorcise the mortal illness from which suffered my father-in-law. I made it for my personal practice in the second semester of my license year in Visual Arts. This short film criticises the helplessness of medicine and translates plastically the obsession, the hope of short term life. Briefly, the tentative to flee and little by little the closing in of the sick person unto himself. A prisoner of his pain, the patient is going to fatally suffer a return to the anticipated void. Minimalist video of which the efficiency was probing up to here, "Le Patient" is above all a visceral production to be watched alone in the dark and with a high sonic volume. In ideal circumstances, media should become physical...trying.

The meta-experimental film throwing the elemental question: “What is the identity of today’s era, through the harmony of dissonance of both the universal multiplication table and the national anthems, the root of differences and distinction and how do we have to produce a film in it?'' The multiplication table which everybody knows is seen as the text which makes us difficult to focus on in the variations with the national anthems, like dissonance of the great powers surrounding the Korean peninsula. The Dadaists’ chaotic age when 'Le Retour a la raison'(film by Man Ray) was made in the early 20th century closely resembles what we look like today. It is a world where things that were simple came complicated and to produce a film is still in this world. To the world and the experimental films, it is necessary to return to reason.

Film inspired by the 1814 print of Hokusai called The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife (蛸と ) itself inspired by the tale of Princesse Tamatori. This work is part of the shunga (erotic art book) Kinoe No Komatsu which describes the misadventures of a girl diver defying a king dragon, god of the sea, to recover a stolen jewel. From this tragic tale, Hokusai offers a very eroticized vision where the monster is protected by undertaking octopuses seduced by the princess. This video uses data moshing to mix bodies and textures in an underwater arabesque saturated with colors.

"A violent wind generates the images. The atmosphere is air tight (and stale?). Silent bodies in front of the mirror. The ritual of small repetitive gestures opens the scene at the hairdressers. In an unpredictable and fragile present, the traces of a past world hussle themselves within carved faces. The storm quiets itself. A slow lethargy takes over everyday life: some people are eating, singing, playing ,some are walking in the sculpted out spaces. These lives are silenced by slowly sinking into the ordinary world, bodies swinging themselves at the gates of deep sleep.
Then, one day, humanity wakes up and crosses over to the exterior side. Armed with wise gestures and precious postures, they watch with a smile an uneasy world falling apart. The event has already taken place. The last men are standing straight as trees, eternal survivors witnessing the disaster of the absent world within the world. From this consistant and unchangeable absence, these last men save the images." – Nikki Giannari

Based on the film "Les parapluies de Cherbourg" by Jacques Demy (1964) an audiovisual composition evolved. It reduces the narrative elements of the original movie by turning short sequences into transformative loops and transforming it into a rhythmic composition. In synchronized beats, the sampling of the sound goes along with the visual rhythm of the video. The actors look like virtual singing sculptures and some kind of a grammar of the movie’s single parts can be examined.

In 1843 Andrea Lezuo, a carver born in Arabba, Northern Italy, sets sail towards "La Merica" on board the Ehon Ship
SONG LYRICS: 00:14:56 --> 00:15:38 "Please come back, this house is waiting for you, please come back, we will stay always together". During the shooting (only internet found footage re-shot) super 8 and 35mm amateur old movies have been used and their frames were physically overlapped to the optics of the camera, determining the transparency of color and brightness. Other analogical filters, such as magnifying and distorting ones, old lenses of cameras, cardboard tubes and plastic, glass jars and colored plastics have been used. The tension to the invisible, to the nebulous that passes through the analogical and the filmic, is an aesthetic position that nostalgically jokes with the hyper realism of the contemporary preoccupation with high definition.”

A real "shopping of life" among all the shelves of supermarkets and corner stores of the everyday life staging. Film sequences, known or not, they are gone somewhere else to play a score that wasn't their.

Robin Dupuis approaches the construction of narrative structures through images and sounds that he generates and filters on home-grown computer systems. He works on digital supports, transforms the language of moving images, and plays with the soundscape to propose a contemplative experience. The abstract images and unheard-of sounds that he creates prompt spectators to “perceive” more intuitively, in what Henri Chomette once described as cinéma pur.

"Sampling Argentinian critical and revolutionary films from 1956 to 2006, Los (De)pendientes offers a great step in the conception of film history. Without any words, considering the past, it tells what visual works were faithful to the real issues of their times; considering the present, it shows in which poor condition are these crucial images of life and struggle; considering the becoming, it indicates what remains to be done to reconstruct a fairest and truest history of cinema; considering eternity, it is an auratic poem of bold shadows."

Losing Ground
13mn color stereo 2009 Canada
by Isabelle Hayeur
self-production
self-distribution
"Losing Ground" is a critique of urban sprawl and the resulting erosion and homogenization of the countryside across the world. With its negation of city history, of geographic particularities, and thus of cultural memory, this standardized urbanization imposes its amnesia, individualistic lifestyle, and jarring presence in nature.
Filmed in Quartier DIX30 in Brossard, the biggest lifestyle center in Canada, the video sounds out recently man-made territories so as to decipher humanity’s relationships with the environment. It confronts us with the dizzying spectacle of our diminishing local references, as they give way to cultural stereotypes, now become universal through globalization.

"Lost bullets" is an overhead shot video .

The Device is everywhere, It has no boundaries, ready to crush our anxiety and squelch our boredom with its constant stream of disjointed solicitations. It removes us from our present reality, thrusting us into a dream world of total engagement and minimal thought or emotion. The Device is available to us 24/7. A nurse shielding us from pain. In life the levels are unclear, milestones are often unannounced. Our value and meaning to others, to the world is in question-but never our relationship to The Device. The Device returns us to a womb state of nominal variables and maximal comfort. Other humans are disappointing, but The Device never lets us down. There is no awareness of The Device.

The title "M3" is the name of the music by Maurizio used in the film. My aim was to visually represent the rhythmic structure of the piece by isolating each of the sounds. The work proposes four different ways of regrouping these sounds so that they can be easily perceived on the screen. For example : First system : Rectangles running from left to right, their size, their duration and their place of appearance are defined by their rhythmic structure in the heart of the piece. The "clap" is worth two beats (whole note) it's size is therefore twice the "boom" and is situated just above it, and as follows for the rest of the sounds.

To express my cinematic ideas further, I paint and optically print the film.

Mala apokalipsa
41mn01 color stereo 2008 Slovenia
by Alvaro Petricig
production : Kinoatelje
distribution : Kinoatelje
"Mala apokalipsa" (Minor Apocalypse) is neither a documentary nor fiction. Paradoxically, it could be defined as "science-fiction documentary", for it is based on a true story – the death of a village. Cisgne is (was) a small settlement in the Nadiža / Natisone Valleys which, similarly to many other mountain or remote settlements, was left to abandonment and ruin by the economic reasoning of our modern lifestyle. The last inhabitants left Cisgne after the earthquake in 1976 when the abandonment of the village and transfer to other settlements in the valley below was imposed on the village dwellers as the only possible solution even though their village only suffered minor damages. The story is a patchwork of testimonies and memories of the village’s daily life and its destiny, with deeply involving and even painful memories awoken by images as persistent as nightmares and almost corroded by the very substance of the memory itself, combined with intuitive reflections on the meaning of time in a village in ruin which may arise in an "outsider", uninfluenced by the life stories of those involved. When apocalypse approaches settlements such as Cisgne, it comes quietly, without a proper announcement, for the events occurring at the very "periphery of an empire" are of no interest to anybody. What is visible to the eye is insatiable vitality with which nature, indifferent to major or minor events in the village’s history, burries and destroys the traces of human experience.
Meanwile, many Cisgnes in the Nadiža / Natisone Valleys await a similar fate.

by Paul Wiersbinski

The work shows a baby playing with a robotic cat toy and the slow process of fascination, fear and ultimately power involved in human-artificial relationships. Today we already live in a Cyborg Reality, where we are actually using mechanical devices to explore and extent the possibilities of our limited haptic reality. We are using technical devices all the time to connect to a part of reality, which is much more relevant and offers us much more possibilities, then we experience within our own space of perception. There always has been a fascination within humans to fetish non-human objects and reflect intimate wishes into them (e.g. Money, Sex Toys, Robots, Zombies). What is in this respect special about machines is our fantasy towards them to be even more perfect living mechanism then us (e.g. in the wish to finally create a artificial intelligence we were promised in science fiction literature). Japanese robot dogs are more cute, less dirty and immortal sources of pleasure, providing all the positive aspects of a house animal, while denying the negative. In this perverted relationship all symbolic wishes are satisfied while the total control remains in the owner and creator of the machine.

"Memento Mori" completes a trilogy of short videos (the two previous being imago & obJet). "Memento Mori"’s material consists entirely of post-mortem photographs of children found on the internet. Post – mortem photography was a common practice, especially with children, in both Europe and America during the 19th and early 20th century. It is also referred to as "memento mori" photography. The video reflects the initial shock and grief experienced when confronted with one’s wounded inner child, one’s dark, frozen layers of pain and loss. It proceeds formally through the use of a simple kind of animation: multiple layers of still images in a varying speed pendulum motion. The animation generates a perpetual emergence figures. The video is silent; the environmental soundtrack of each specific screening is defined as the 'audio' of "Memento Mori.

In Memories at the Banff Springs Hotel, I am asking random people if they could share a special memory with me. I do not specify what the memory should be; this is left open to their interpretation. With this piece I was also interested in the construction of a memory. The last person whom I speak with appears to be constructing a memory in order to continue this interaction with me. He has to pause and think hard about his memory, leaving me to question if this was an actual memory or something that he has adapted or restructured during our conversation. How much of this memory is referencing an actual event. I am interested in how memories can change overtime in response to people's ongoing experiences and circumstances. Memories appear to at least be partially constructed in response to people's fears, wishes, and desires.

With this work I try to let go the viewer into the Hyppocampus of a soviet soldier for some minutes. All non originally videos and musics are taken from www.archive.org under creative commons license( public domain ). Other sounds are recorded and manipulated by myself. Editing video and sound are made by myself. The Hyppocampus at the beginning of the video is a little organic sculpture that I made.

"Memosium" is articulated like a concerto in three movements. The camera, the body and space have each one there their tempo but these three movements are played simultaneously. The account seems amnesic of its plans and the character. The events are reiterated infinitely. One is in a time of repetition... In addition, the acceleration and the geometrical multiplication of the movement, the complexity of the activities of the character, their mathematical cutting and the infinite rearrangement of the body give to the spectator a new conscience time, without assigned limits. Only the escape (death?) can allow to escape from this prison time.

Cinema and dream are both the most frequent relations we have with illusions and lies. Dream reconstitutes the world, and cinema "the daydream" interprets the appearance of things. Art and cinema, the means through which dream finds its way back to reality, art and dreams, also lies that tell the truth. In The "Odyssey" (canto IX), Ulysses, called "the prince of the liars" starts the story of his journey. Coming from the oral tradition, The Odyssey bears the mark of an archaïc dream, that of the impossible and constantly postponed return to one' own or the object of one's desire. The trace of a wandering among one's dreams and lies. Lies and dreams as beneficial products and medium of the "roaming of our senses".

Menu

by Daniel Nicolae Djamo

"Menu" is part of a larger project, named “Buni”, which is a journal of the last words. I started it in the middle of 2009. It’s decomposition, mental agony and self loss. This is not a documentation of death, but a mere projection of what really matters. The photos are trying to underline the immortality of the human experience with everything that surrounds him, their interior value, that is never forgotten or lost, becoming the legacy of those who are near to us, those who we love. “Buni” is not a two year study of degradation, but everyone’s story, even if it appears in rather different shapes, written or rewritten with more or less talent.
Buni raised me. Although we are not related, she was more than a mother to me. I started photographing her when I saw that he is poor in health. I felt I must do it. I couldn’t stay inert. In the summer of 2010 I felt that the photographic medium is poor, considering what I felt I would like to transmit to others. That is why I chose to continue what I felt I must do through video. It is obvious that a feeling cannot be transmitted in the sharpest, truly human and real form through the use of photography, film, or text. Nothing that is inside of us can be made VHS or DVD.
“Buni” can only offer photocopied images of a story distorted by our own memories, becoming a reflection of ourselves in deformed mirror. It is a continuous project, putting together more than 180 hours of filmed material and more than 1600 photographs. This work is part of this larger project, alongside other videos made out of the filmed material that I have gathered.

Achieving filmic and musical composition « Tiny Wildlife » plays on the multiplicity of reporting entails this upheaval between the micro and macro, between an organic and figurative frame emergences. The drift of the banks, the views under the sea, the sky, or flush with the ground, « Tiny Wildlife » is pictorial and musical expression of this parachuted glance inhospitable land that bears the traces of exile and its alive look that resists in a fragile body-to-body with life remains.

« Mirages » was filmed in a residential development on Montreal’s South Shore and in the surrounding agricultural lands. We are gradually transported from one site to another, going from a fertile meadow to a desolate construction site. Transitory spaces appear, ephemeral places are set up; these metamorphoses evoke the urban sprawl that replaces rural life with suburban conditions. Those landscapes in mutation reflect the upheavals affectingour living environments and our ecosystems. They hold a mirror to the illusion of having the capacity to build when we do not even have the ability to dwell.

Motel
4mn55 color & b/w stereo 2017 USA
by Brice Bowman
self-production
distribution : Canyon Cinema
The first motel we stop at in Brice Bowman's film "MOTEL" is Argonne Motel which among its references is to the battle of Argonne in north-eastern France known as the Maas-Argonne Offensive. This is a hint as to some of the ideas contemplated in "MOTEL" -- and what Brice Bowman weaves into his films as a whole. With regard to the audio of MOTEL is it the never to be forgotten repetition of sounds from the machine guns role on the battlefield, or is it the sound of the individual sprockets passing through a film gate as each frame of the movie received its brief individual moment of light passing through it in? Or is it the drive-pulley sprockets of a conveyor belt as society is transported forward in time? Or yet perhaps it is a time-slice of consciousness, that is sociological snapshots via flickering images passing through a Keystone, a Bell & Howell, a Sears, a Kodak, or a Bolex camera functioning as phenomenological machines of society? Together family projectors in conjunction with motels have functioned as records of social activity. This is the basis of Brice Bowman's film MOTEL. His film is a heart-beating poetical string of humanity recordings along the finite timeline known as a "life-time". In his film Brice Bowman uses motel rooms as a model of temporary lodgings for society travelling to life's ultimate checkout moment and how we remember them through the movies they made of themselves participating in this life journey. From their recordings we can summon up a re-Viewing of their individual and group trails of passing through the timeline of a temporary existence along the highways of the world as viewed through the film gates of household movie cameras. A literal recording of human consciousness from it earliest moments up until and including their departures.

"Musee Hofstadt" is an exploration of complex behaviors within biological systems, both real and simulated. Based on the Typogenetic theories of Douglas Hofstadter, the performance and its documentation are constructed around the string manipulation rules he developed to model the processes of genetic replication. Repetitive sets of deterministic actions are codified with Butoh style movements, incorporating actions in sets of 4 and 16. The characters positions directly correlate to the number of string terms and total instructions in Hofstadter’s system. This rule base system is also implemented programmatically in the postproduction process. Typogenetic algorithms were scripted in Perl and used to drive video processing in Jitter and to build generative 3D geometry in Maya.

"Music Video for a Pop Song" is a video set to a manipulated version of Britney Spears’ breakout hit "Baby One More Time". The piece addresses the intersection of sexuality, gender, popular culture, beauty, and the grotesque. "Music Video for a Pop Song" depicts three simultaneous videos of heavily rouged lips. As the audio shifts from the genuine song to a slower version, the videos fall in and out of sync with the sound. As a result, the piece exists in a liminal space between connection and disconnection, beautiful and grotesque, masculine and feminine.

The video work investigates the future relationship between gender conceptions and the human procreation in the age of advancements in the field of gene-manipulation and various possibilities of artificial insemination. The work also relates to the Freudian concept of the childs rejection of the mother(body) as a the primary stage of narcissism and the gateway to the symbolic world, an idea further developed by French psychoanalyst and literature critic Julia Kristina, who suggests that the development of the human language and words are a substitute for the loss of the oneness with the mothers body.

"And slow down and planted a rose between her teeth". So ends the song interpreted by Nick Cave and Kylie Minogue. I reviewed their murderous relationship with the eroticism of a blowjob made with love. Even if the blood seems to flow in the mouth it is the substance of an inversion. For who puts to death who? Is not this the sense of pleasure? The little death as it is said in France? I played on the meaning of an Anglo-Saxon idiomatic expression, I can not divulge it, to open the metaphor of jouissance to sexual creation. The writing of Elisa's desire, her creative ejaculation, is beyond the difference of the sexes, this interminable war. I wanted to return the violence of domination incarnated by the position of the singer kneeling above her, a stone in the hand, and uttering to her "All beauty must die", towards the vitality of the body, pleasure and life.

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.

It is above all an experience for the whole team because the creation process was conducted without a script. The work was created on the basis of improvisations, the only materials were the body and emotions. We started with the idea to express specific feelings in image combining the real and the imaginary.
This experimental short film is the result of a challenge in adverse conditions with little equipment.
Divided into two parts, before and after the act of suicide, filmed in real time, it emphasizes the feeling of solitude and reflection. You can imagine since the choice was made not to use words, only the image and the body must speak to the bodies and minds of viewers. And the second part shows the fantastic side and dreamed the interpretation of metaphorical images of emotions and the imagination, what happens during and immediately after death, because it is a suicide.

Still miniature figures resemble a nightmare. The images of dictators enjoying a barbecue closes the scene. The animal, the beef, the blood. This video was made from images of the newscast Sucesos Argentinos (1938-1972).

"Not Enough Night" is a swan song for bygone hipsters, who longed for more "life" amid the coming storm of the post-World War II suburbs, shopping malls and the lonely existence of the solitary consumer.This tape commemorates the passing of the fiftieth year since the publication of "On the Road."

The film protagonist is a voice without a body searching your organic identity between the images. The voice try to find a link between the 4 film footage, but this is extremely difficult, and perhaps useless.

The island as a symbol of anonymity, the center of nothingness or a non-place. The relationship generated between the own environment against what is not known, suggests a series of questions without answers due to the inability to see beyond our own perspective. The idea of “island” creates a panorama showing two distant points, each one producing its own sense of fiction and reality. This way, emphasis is made on the concept of the isolated as a territory where utopic thinking functions as ideology, limiting what can be seen to only that which is at hand.

I imagined spilling flower petals into the path of dust devil so that it would create a colourful vortex of swirling petals. I recently found a few dust devils during each of my 3 trips to the California desert, but they are fast, dissipate quickly and mostly too far off the road to catch…always just ahead of my car. When I was ready to give up looking after my third desert trip and was focusing my camera on abandoned school, a well-formed small dust devil appeared about 10 meters to my right.

A conversation between a boy and an E.T.
They speak of their alienation in their own worlds and the technologic differences between those two. One (E.T.) speaks of his experiences he is doing with energy, paths and canals where it circulates and unites objects/bodies. The other (Boy) speaks of its capabilities to do telepathy, among others, which others cannot see and of his strong desire to leave his world. On the image, we see a Strong Sea Storm (for the boy) and mysterious canals of energy (for the E.T.)

At the beginning of the movie of Resnais two bodies are shown in attitude of love. Here in "Origin of the World" I show a sex without love, Hiroshima without love. Only the instint of sex and death. Where the body becomes the site of the battle between Eros and Thanatos, between pain and pleasure between the informational explosion and an orgasm.

Despite the filmmakers efforts to integrate the protagonists into areas they were formerly discriminated or excluded from, the painful reminders of the past in the form of domestic worker uniforms and the short or accidentally captured footage of them renders the past inescapable.

The film "Outside" is a work from the “simple” experience of observing Chinese life, a document of outdoor performances in Beijing 24-hour street life. It documents the day-to-day process or act of filmmaking. Perhaps it can be best described as an observer’s view of Beijing as it is today. Scenes of what foreigners and certainly tourist travellers may pick up of this huge and sprawling metropolis. Completely observatory in nature, this film is not a social criticism or a cry for help. It could thus be interpreted as an ethnographic study of movement in contemporary Beijing.

On the more practical side, I have made this film to express my concerns regarding the urbanization and globalization of Shanghai, elements of which have turned Shanghai into a science-fiction like landscape through the blending of pre-industrial and hypermodern elements.

by Blas Payri
self-production
self-distribution
"Paysage enseveli" (translatable as "Shrouded landscape") is a work that I have been developing for some years, to explore the concept of Leitmotiv in the visual medium. It is divided in 12 movements (scenes) that reflect an ambience or a feeling of the main character, a woman whose inner voice leads us through the different movements. First, the soundtrack has been built, using sound leitmotivs linked to the voice of the character (humming, laughter, whisper) or to external sources (bells, drone). The image has been built using also the leitmotiv approach, where each visual element is related to an idea or a feeling: the woods symbolize the leitmotiv of the social oppression, the sea/water as the leitmotiv of destruction, the wandering/walking of the character as the leitmotiv of the search for a meaning, the body position (laying down, crouching) as the mood of the character. The text excerpts have been adapted from the novel "Thérèse Desqueyroux" (1927) by François Mauriac, selecting the passages for their poetic rather than narrative content.

“LandscapeToBe” interrogates the physical, philosophical and spiritual gap that deepens between human beings and nature. In the form of a right of passage,it constitutes a test of an individual : the crossing of extraordinary and marvelous, simulated landscapes, until an extreme physical experience, a sort of corps a corps with naked nature. Will this laborious quest for symbiosis with nature allow him to find himself, in harmony with the world ?

Our lives often seem to be governed, or at least influenced, by oppositional or dichotomous structures. On many levels, we shift between different and oppositional states of being - physically, mentally, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually, socially, politically, economically, etc. Pendulum is an exploration of cyclical, back-and-forth movements. This work establishes patterns and relationships through repeated, densely layered actions. Pendulum builds to a cacophony of sight and sound that hints at the metaphorical qualities of such patterned movements.

A real "shopping of life" among all the shelves of supermarkets and corner stores of the everyday life staging. Film sequences, known or not, they are gone somewhere else to play a score that wasn't their. As in music, the tone of a film is expressed by the force of its own leitmotiv, by the almost hypnotic repetition of the simple measure of his purpose.

Individual elements from a carrier of visual information have been isolated and used to construct alternative visual reagents. Repetition (in space and in time [and in moderation]) is administered as a binder to tame the wild particles in motion, achieving a golden ratio of the mind's eye.
Film was once manufactured and distributed on thin translucent plastic strips rolled on reels. On the strips you could see the individual images that made the film. It came in different formats like Super 8, 16 mm and 35 mm (the size referring to the width of the strips). For this film found Super 8 footage was the source material. It was cut to small pieces and investigated further with other film formats (16 mm & 35 mm) by means of optical printing and reshooting the projected material. After applying this analogue feedback loop for a while the result has been transferred to video and edited further.

If you gaze deeply enough, the images reveal their secrets in fleeting bursts of erotic color-motion.

Primitive Earth Series Part 1 : Volcanoes
5mn51 color stereo 2010 USA
by Catherine Gilbert & Jeff Burns
production : Gratuitous Art Productions
distribution : Gratuitous Art Productions
Gratuitous Art Films is a collaborative art project that finds the connections and inflections between today’s audience and yesterday’s bully pulpit. Gratuitous techniques have been keystones in both propaganda and film making in the 20th century and over time, connotations -symbolic, political or otherwise- allow us to manipulate sound and images to gratuitously inflict our own narrative and connotations. We at Gratuitous Art Films dig deep into the trenches of obscura ephemera, sourcing from over 65 years of public domain material ranging from the propaganda of the Prelinger archives to the wax cylinders in Thomas Edison’s Attic. The very sources of the material form a foundational context that allows these short films to work with so many layers. The corporate lens and the time of its conception make each film source a treasure trove of metaphor and social relevance.
Pieced together through modern cynicism and progressive design aesthetics, a dry dark wit extends a hand and slaps you across the face. Some of it is recognizable as the advertorial campaigns, or entertainment of our youth. Others are lost beacons of amateur video capturing decaying Kodak moments of our lives, doubly sweet for the treasure trove of glitches that are the lost trademarks of the non-digital film era.
The dated sources of material form a familiar pallet, offering incredible production values and a temperament that would be nearly impossible to reproduce today. From hair and make up to dance productions, the type of footage we use in our films produces a desaturated sanguine that borders on bittersweet mental illness.

"Private Views" creates a parallel between two starkly different worlds: the wretchedness of the destitute and the conspicuous consumer lifestyle of the nouveaux rich. The video explores the themes of social inequalities, real estate speculation, and dispossession. It documents the decline of some North American cities and casts a critical eye on the emergence of wealthy new suburbs. These private residential enclaves are often gated and under surveillance. Their luxury homes, with their dubious architectural style, are the reflection of a world dominated by appearances, consumption, and social conformity.

"Profanations" is a three channel video work consisting of appropriation and reconstruction of images and sequences from films by Jules Marey, Pudovkin, Kirsanoff, Eisenstein, Romero, Halpern, Kulechov ... from which a series of micro-stories have been created. These stories have been organized according to Campanas De Luz ( Light Bells ), a music composition by Riera Robuste. "Profanations" emerges from an interest in exploring relationships between sound and image with narratives and abstraction, playing with the [dis]articulation found in film narratives; creating a rupture within narrative and representation.

The images and sounds, drifting in and out of sync, create a perpetual state of cinematic déjà vu that haunts and confuses both the original and its double. "Psycho(s)" recycles the original narratives, forming new poetic associations in an endless cycle of parallel edits.

The film was shot by hand-held camera, and is all in subjective takes. The main "character" in the film is light. Light reveals characters and objects, without care for the composition of the shot or using artificial lighting. Simultaneously with the shooting of the refraction of light, the spreading – ringing of sound is recorded. And the most important – silence, because in the wasteland, on that "island" with no visible boundary between the sky and the earth, in that prison with no fences, silence is louder than the noise of any city.

To produce this video, images of clouds were projected directly onto a passing train at night. The clouds were originally shot with a digital camera as a time-lapsed sequence. Different cloud sequences were merged together in after-Effects and then panned to create the final sequence of a sky appearing to move through time and space. This final sequence was projectd onto a train so that each car displays a separate still image that changs from one car to the next. In this way the train functions as a slowly passing filmstrip. Quest is about entering into two distinct visual experiences: the passing of clouds and the passing of trains. Both occupy a space that is vast, constant, and beyond reach.

Now I take Zulueta's film and expand it to the original length. You may miss the story, but all the racism and sexism comes to the surface as never before.

“r.b.w. is a live audiovisual set associated with colors, shapes and forms. The set consists of 3 abstract live visuals that associate with three primary color states; red, blue and white. Based on chromotherapy studies, specific colors bring balance to our physical and emotional systems. Each selected set of three colors(as samples) brings different stimulations and effects. The intention is to investigate how color in motion can alter mood or emotional states similar to music; what certain music has the power to do. Image and sound when pursued with this approach should enhance combination beyond and besides status quo. This is the potential of what can be experienced when image and sound are combined in a live media experiment with psychophysical approach. "r.b.w vol.1" was presented with live EEG (Electroencephalograph) generated sound.

I start from a rereading of Alain Resnais' documentary "Toute la mémoire du monde" to reflect on the different ways in which collective memories were stored in the past and at present. In the documentary, Resnais shows us the tangible, laborious process of the building’s stomach when it swallows, distributes and classifies all documentation coming into the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris. This contrasts with the rapid distribution of information and documents in the present, when before they are catalogued, they have already been spread out worldwide. This way, at the moment an event is taking place, it has already been established as an intangible collective memory of the present.

While in the third person, she dancing with steady seriousness in a room alone. These separate parts surge onward, in tandem, determined for motion.

Between a song and a visual piece, between abstraction and figuration, using the failure of the film itself, shot in super 8mm while looking for an hermit in the mountains of Roquebrune and mixed with digital video, the quest turned into an abstract enigmatic journey, a visual ecstatic experience, crossed with an ambient homemade lofi-soundtrack. The title comes from the figurine hung at the car, as the title of a popular forgotten song.

A real "shopping of life" among all the shelves of supermarkets and corner stores of the everyday life staging. Film sequences, known or not, they are gone somewhere else to play a score that wasn't their.

An old fashion TV screen starts flickering with colourful abstraction. As a manifestation of the analogue medium itself, noise is let free to express some possible variations. The noisy dance is then fixed on the digital medium. Algorithms destructure the images revealing new shapes, which were hidden in the empty spaces between one frame and the other. Digital noise arises. This conjunction of elements – which are traditionally ignored, by will or by physical/mechanical inability to perceive them – results in a kind of magma bubbling colours. These different forms of noise, now isolated and free from any kind of subject matter, dialectically interact in order to generate a multitude of visual possibilities.

Each piece can be seen as deterritorializing of the original scripts when the participants (actors) use the original material to re-create a new piece and through this process they also re-territorialize the work.

Rosa is an experimental essay documentary film that juxtaposes the life of the filmmaker in two extreme locations (Baghdad and Montana) through three elements of nature: dust, rust and wind. The filmmaker uses these elements as a poetic introduction to navigate memories of his past and to compare them to his Montana present. Narrated in Arabic with distinct conversations in English, Rosa makes the extreme chaos of Baghdad, especially during the war, and the peace of the empty and isolated State of Montana stand out vividly. Shot on miniDV, the film manipulates printed images of Baghdad that become poetically destroyed with water and paint in order to represent vague and distant memories. The film also uses home video style imagery of Montana to represent the present. Both of these techniques overlap and collapse.

self-production
self-distribution
"sampleur et sans reproche" is the title of this short film video, and it is, or almost is the title of piece by OPAK ("sans peur et sans reproche") used in the sound track. The work presented here is a precise re-editing of "virages", a one hour film projected during the OPAK concert in Beaubourg the 13/12/02 in the framework of the exhibition Sonic-Process. My working of visual forms is tightly linked to sonic form workings of the OPAK musicians...Never the less, it is not a question of a video mix, neither that of a simple image/music synchronisation. It is a relation so shot/duration, internal/external rhythmics, of editing and consequently of cinematographic language. I therefore searched for an interaction between visual and sonic landscapes that mutually enriched each other, in order to produce a new sense, a new sensation, unedited, erupting from their confrontation rather than a simple ..... sound/image.

It's about an unending corridor, sort of. I cut several of my rushes of shots of stairs and corridors and I assembled them in a way that gives a continuity. The use of a stroboscopic system is firstly their to give a visual effect to certain parts of the film where the contrast between black and white is so strong we can get the impression that the images "float", and secondly to lose little by little the watcher in this labyrinth.

Sans Sommeil

production : Films de Force Majeure

Looking at and listening to the city, in an off beat manner. A 24-hour non-stop photo shoot with sound recording, against the tide of lives set as per the working class standard. On the metro, by foot, on a bus, on a taxi, following the crowd or walking in the opposite direction, by day and by night.
SANS SOMMEIL is a short film made up of still images with live sound recording. It is a visual and sound journey across Paris, as a subjective sample of a 24-hour cycle including accelerations, pauses, silences. Whether she crosses a hectic market place or a never-ending underground corridor, whether she gets lost among the crowd or wanders through the night-time desert of a city fast asleep, the director attempts to decipher the language of the city, to escape its chaos so as to better unveil its secret poetry. From 7 am to 7 am the next morning, with no sleep.

Sgan-Cohen was my favorite art history teacher at Brooklyn College. He taught the subject like no other professor at the college—with an extremely deep sense of passion and a strong personal connection to the ideas. When I watch this film (which has become creepier over the decades) I can hear his booming voice and staccato Israeli accent. It should be more than obvious that I thought he had a fascinating face, too. Here's looking at you, Dr. Sgan-Cohen!

Shed 48, in the remote New Zealand bush is an appropriate architectural foil against stunning New Zealand forested landscape.

Like cockroaches (who famously survive radioactive fallout and temperature extremes), it is a likely survivor of a dystopian future.

Shot

SHOT is an experimental film that tries to make formal sense out of senseless violence. Footage was found from every police shooting over the last two years for which there is available video. Each piece of footage is taken unedited, and aligned -- synchronised to the moment of the first gunshot. The lm is a moving composite, modelled after the composite photographs used by criminologists in the 19th century to try to understand the archetypical thief, rapist, murderer. The end result is an uncanny wave of terror, violence, and outrage.

In her work the artist Milica Rakic is occupied with renewing memory by striving against the selective memory. She reexamines the relationship towards the recent past involving us in the critical dialogue by means of provocative messages – taken over and adapted from different sources . She plays with words, with interwoven public and political issues; critically thinking over the current picture of society. Her art work comprises philosophical, timeless, ironic and ambiguous thoughts which she brings in correlation with history, recollection, and the collective memory. In distinctly allegorical strain, she argues a culture dominated by short-term memories where past is unexpectedly present.

32 years later, mounir fatmi is trying to reactivate this apparatus. The figure of the sleeper played by Salman Rushdie should change the way it should be seen. Instead of the “obsolete” sleep of John Giorno ahead of Warhol’s lens, the literary and polemic context would make the sleeping of the British writer necessary and paradoxical.

Marianne Queval, who was voted Deaf Miss France and runner up for Deaf Miss World in 2013, performs "Il me dit que je suis belle" (He Tells Me I'm Beautiful) by Patricia Kaas, a song about women's desire to believe in men's flattery. The deaf beauty pageant parallels the regular competition but does not benefit from the same media profile.

A young man from Montpellier performs "Wild World" by Cat Stevens. The pictorial aspect suggested by the backdrop evoking nature in terms of fauna and flora, combined with the classical references hinted at by the floral crown worn by the singer, associated with pagan gods, conjure up the savage and Dionysian side of the world. This is echoed by the title of the song and reminds us that the destiny of human beings lies beyond their control, at the mercy of external forces.

Solastalgia is a concept created by environmental philosopher Glenn Albrecht to define a feeling of unease tied to the upheavals and mutations we are experiencing today. It is the homesickness we may feel when we are still at home, but our familiar surroundings have grown strange to us. Nowadays, this state of loss of bearings seems to become generalized under the pressure of heightened development. In the Anthropocene Era, affected as we are by the rising world population, climate change, and the transformation of our ecosystems, this may be a form of latent distress that haunts us all.

This performance centres on a transaction or exchange. I have gone to a convenience store during my residency in Portugal and created an “activated situation”. In this piece I have asked participants to share a bowl of split pea soup with me. The sharing of soup is used as a pretext for social interaction. As the piece continues the lines are blurred and there is confusion about what role each of us belong to. On this occasion I am examining how our individual needs and freedoms are altered on a daily basis as we move between public and commercial spaces. The audience is invited to re-evaluate what they think is permissive and the preconceived ideas of normalcy.

Video made around the theme of the inner sense, and the life of a troubled and plural psychic identity. The head becomes cage, and my character is as stuck by his own dilettant desires. His place in the world is vacillating, yet he exists. His relationship to the other is different, the passion that drives him anchor in the earth and away from it at the same time. He tumbles down the steps of his imagination, he thinks, sleeps, goes to bed, and flies away. His doubts are constant, his curiosity about the other is variable, and his solitude wanders. Its interior is an erupting volcano. Here, the black and white is not intended to make the observation pessimistic and gloomy. On the contrary, I see a quiet ballad in a brain that decided to step aside. My character becomes more human than humans. In this, this hypersensitive becomes the center of my attention.

Starring L.A.

self-production

I started "Starring L.A." by taking a map of Los Angeles and drawing a circle around downtown. I then drew a five-point star inside the circle. I filmed from each of the points of the star for one full day. Because of the bad air quality in "L.A." it took almost a year to find five clear days. I then put the camera on my car and drove around the city along the line of the circle which I initially had drawn on the map. The image which I included with the videotape shows the five points from which I filmed and the area which is visible from the angle of the camera. Thus the viewable area of the video demarcates the body of the star. The path that I drove demarcates the circle around the star. The audio consists of sounds recorded during filming and thesound of a film projector. I believe by making this video I placed a curse on the entire city of Los Angeles.

Virtual images of abandoned stages and theaters are the imaginary set of "actors" in their search for identity, for a role. It all starts with the view on the screen and ends up with the view out of it. By immerging into subjective viewpoints and perspectives observers become the observed ones. A role reversal is staged: the audience as a consumer and as a producer. "State of Stage" is an exploration of different "states" and conditions of stages, places of selfpresentation and self-manifestation. Through its virtual origin "State of Stage" tries to investigate the cinematic, performative and virtual space at the interface of cinema, theater and Internet, but also the question of their overlapping.

Summerland (Le pays de l'été)
21mn21 color & b/w stereo 2015 France
by Cécile Ravel
self-production
distribution : Collectif Jeune Cinema
"Summerland" is a territory where human beings and animals are exchanging a part of their souls and bodies. Here metaporphoses are constant, corrupting borders and boundaries between species. Many transformations occur secretly within the depth fo the forest. In Summerland the point of view is always ambiguous, submitted itself to a constant movement between reality and surreality. The title of the film refers to "Slumberland", imaginary country visited every night by Little Nemo, a little boy from Winsor Mc Cay's cartoon "Litlle Nemo".

In early September 1995 the Sunrise Wildfire was extinguished. 7,000 acres had burned during the peak of the tourist season yet nobody was killed. The aggravated assault swept from one side of Sunrise Highway to the other without the slightest hesitance. Another series of severe brush fires ignited 17 years later and became known as the Brookhaven Blaze. The outbreak left around 2,000 acres torched. The wild ruin and regrowth were revisited within The Central Pine Barrens, the largest natural area on Long Island and its last remaining wilderness. Sound: Ryan Marino.

Where does the image come from? From the inside or from the outside? Is it broadcast light or reflected light? Is it TV or cinema? Image and voice recorded during an interview with Kubelka at the (S8) Mostra de Cinema Periférico in 2012, the year of the “death of cinema”, as the Austrian filmmaker put it. His face was projected on the dead surface of a picture tube and then refilmed from that surface, which was never designed as a projection screen, but to receive the image from the inside. This contradiction between screened image and broadcast image is the contradiction between celluloid cinema and digital cinema. Life (heartbeats) and death (worms).

Tension Sketch_3
3mn03 color sil 2015 Australia
by Scott Morrison
self-production
self-distribution
The work uses the complete transcribed text of the June 2014 orientation video message as delivered from then Australian Government Immigration Minister Scott Morrison. This "message" was played to detained refugees on Nairu and Manus Island in their attempt to arrive to Australia by boat and subsequent capture and detainment. The similarities of our shared namesake are obvious - this work takes the perhaps humorous coincidence and instead looks to provoke and question notions of privilege, representation and authority. The work acts as a broader portraiture of national identity - when the individual, the politician is removed from the original context does it also represent all Australians as the words are representative of Government mandate? The karaoke styled treatment towards the text offers a visual counterpoint - evoking a paradise filled with hope and burgeoning safe shore - as if in a dream.

The beautiful language is rich in text and images, but it is hard to read. The cut-up technique, popularised in William Burroughs' texts is applied here to the images, with fragments of fraught exchanges appearing in a non-linear fashion. The images are taken from L'enfant sauvage ("The Wild Child"), François Truffaut's 1970 film, based on the true story, from the end of the 18th century, of an "uncivilised" boy being taken in by a doctor and studied as a specimen of difference. The images chosen for "The beautiful language" show the child being measured, taught and tested.

"the catch" consists of a single minute-long close-up shot of a pair of hands combing through hair. The image is beautiful, yet the perspective is uncomfortably close.

The audio overdramatizes this act leaving the viewer to contend with her perception of cinematic conventions.

by Suzanne Caines

The piece called "The Encounter" was made at "Mount Saint Vincent University Art Gallery", 2008. In this piece I have asked participants to describe a special place/location. I previously created a series of plaster objects, which were given in exchange for each interaction I performed. After these conversations I gave a souvenir that I have produced as a gift for them. In exchange for his or her memory I offered each interlocutor a small plaster sculpture that was about the size of a hand-held mobile device. (Each sculpture was unique and based on a commonplace object such as a dime-store figurine or an ornate light switch-plate, altered in accordance with the way I believe memory functions to distort recollected experiences.) This piece reflects upon its own failures to “connect” and thus gains distance from its overt subject matter.

Filming people without a camera.

A real "shopping of life" among all the shelves of supermarkets and corner stores of the everyday life staging. Film sequences, known or not, they are gone somewhere else to play a score that wasn't their. As in music, the tone of a film is expressed by the force of its own leitmotiv, by the almost hypnotic repetition of the simple measure of his purpose. This film is also a video installation.

The fat lamb

by Daniel Nicolae Djamo
production : independent producer
self-distribution
"The fat lamb" are part of a larger project, named “Buni”, which is a journal of the last words. I started it in the middle of 2009. It’s decomposition, mental agony and self loss. This is not a documentation of death, but a mere projection of what really matters. The photos are trying to underline the immortality of the human experience with everything that surrounds him, their interior value, that is never forgotten or lost, becoming the legacy of those who are near to us, those who we love. “Buni” is not a two year study of degradation, but everyone’s story, even if it appears in rather different shapes, written or rewritten with more or less talent.
Buni raised me. Although we are not related, she was more than a mother to me. I started photographing her when I saw that he is poor in health. I felt I must do it. I couldn’t stay inert. In the summer of 2010 I felt that the photographic medium is poor, considering what I felt I would like to transmit to others. That is why I chose to continue what I felt I must do through video. It is obvious that a feeling cannot be transmitted in the sharpest, truly human and real form through the use of photography, film, or text. Nothing that is inside of us can be made VHS or DVD.
“Buni” can only offer photocopied images of a story distorted by our own memories, becoming a reflection of ourselves in deformed mirror. It is a continuous project, putting together more than 180 hours of filmed material and more than 1600 photographs. This work is part of this larger project, alongside other videos made out of the filmed material that I have gathered.

The filmmaker finds himself at the protests in and around Gezi Park, Istanbul, in front of the gates of the Cinecitta in Rome and the streets of Santiago de Chile. Whether in the Atacama desert or a trailer park in California, he attempts to find a description of the universal longing. The collision of image, text and sound finds its counterpart in the seemingly contrary locations and scenes. The Devil's Dance meets the indulgence of astronomical precision and death at the foot of an ocean. The film is stargazing and a quest for meaning. It is a montage of a multi-year excursion that describes the subjective view of the world according to the filmmaker.

An oversized spider leisurely roams along Rosebank Road in the Auckland suburb of Avondale and in Hearne Bay juxtaposed against stop motion images of screams from Grade B horror movies of fictional killer spiders. Of the 35,000 species of spiders described worldwide, only a handful are considered to be dangerous and only 27 are known to have caused human fatalities. The irrational fear of spiders is an apt trope for unfounded fear -in the colloquial sense, “paranoia”, which conditions racism, diffidence and the Hobbesian trap of violence. The 3D digital spiders were modelled on a freeze-dried Avondale spider from the Auckland Museum scanned at Formscan, North Auckland. (Avondale spiders are the spiders that were shipped from Auckland to LA for the movie "Arachnophobia".) They are harmless.

The Junicho Video-Renku Book is a series of twelve "twelve-tone" video-poems (1:45- 3 minutes each) based on a 17th century form of Japanese poetry. Similar to an exquisite corpse, renku uses rule-based disjunctive linking techniques for the writing of verses that journey through the everyday. The experience of watching a video-renku is phantasmagoric. From a centipede trapped in a sink to a man singing karaoke to his pet love-birds, The Junicho Video-Renku Book creates a richly layered collage of moving image, sound, and text.

In this video, Manos and Buckius find themselves surrounded by four tables on which run ten printers. Manos and Buckius frantically zoom around the confined space on their rolling chairs in an attempt to retrieve and stack the papers endlessly being processed through the printers. The paperwork just never seems to end, as they race against the clock and an unknown deadline ! The MBC embraces purposelessness ! Our aim is to energize a space with our activities, and suggest new interpretations for existing structures both in the social/political and environmental/architectural sense. Formalist aesthetics...patterned yet spontaneous movement...vibrant colors and actions…we are Jacques Tati meets DEVO. Working as a team, we interact physically with everyday objects and technological devices by using them to perform unconventional, bizarre and highly non- productive tasks. The work proposes that everyday objects and technologies might be reinterpreted in absurd, playful, and strange ways, and that the nature of productivity and function be re-examined. This work questions levels of authority and control : are we in control of technology, our immediate environment, and institutional systems, or is the reverse true ? Our work has included photography, mediated performances (live-feed to video monitor or projector), live performance with projections, videos, video installation with projections, and video installation with sculpture.
The MBC is particularly interested in spaces that offer a potential for site-specific work, and we are often drawn to irregular and notably compartmental areas or rooms. We work specifically to the confines of a space, and each space becomes heterotopic through the experience.

From the everyday to the metaphoric, this work is a consideration of human perseverance, industriousness, and the often ludicrous business in our everyday lives.

This video surveillance of a cast shadow, seen advancing along the face of a window, is directed toward the ocular phenomena clarified in Merleau-Ponty’s work.

Part of a larger unfolding, these anchors and points of reference are amongst a series of other elements that comprise this perspective. Some, althought out of sight (such as the shadow-producing sun) are nevertheless present before the viewer’s eye (i.e. the specter of the tree).

The youth of the modern society are geographically remote from the military operations that take place one the world’s periphery. But they are trying to simulate such psychologically extreme situations. In film a group of extremity-minded people are explicitly imitating a collective execution by a firing squad in a mountain. The sight of the extreme performance will remind a curious spectator of the horror of the formely endured nightmare, in which the spectator had to climb up and roll down a steep slope, as well as the punishment of mythic Sisyphus. The modern extreme games of youth are the very potentially useful work the outputs of which are useless in the framework of the existing society, and the work itself is endless. But as Camus believed, a struggle to reach the top is sufficient to fill one heart with hope.

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).

Among the most vibrant examples of popular visual art found in Indian towns and villages are the religious posters and calendars depicting deities, saints, and places of worship, sold at shops or roadside stalls near religious shrines, and adorned at walls inside homes, shops, or in worship-corners. The modern printing press and the mass production industry have transformed this art form into a full-fledged mass culture, characterized by its own popular aesthetics, the depiction of the folklore, and the marketing devices.

TIDELANDS focuses on the distinctive people and landscape of Daebu-island, located in South Korea. It shows men and women from its fishing community sharing their memories related to the sea and the islands before the construction of the Sihwa Wall. This wall - the longest tide embankment in Asia – and the homonymous artificial lake were constructed to improve the local industry and promote urban growth; however, these implementations had a huge impact on the ecological balance of these islands, and therefore over the lives of their inhabitants and traditional cultures. Long, contemplative shots of places and elements from the islands, such as the wide mudflats, fishermen’s abandoned objects and boats, their houses in precarious state, are intertwined with images of the participants talking to the camera. The community was broken up by capitalist growth and the film allows its shattered identity to be slowly uncovered.

At 4pm on Saturday April 12, two birds fell on a power line crossing El Peral, on the outskirts of Valpariason. The wind was very strong and shook the cables. The birds were electrocuted. Sparks fell and ignited the pastures. The fire had begun. The south wind pushed the fire and the earth was burned.

The layered sound and textured image become a kind of casual rumination on the materials of the artist, of birth and death, of tending, constructing, and holding – an abstract list of those things one cannot contain.

It is an "aesthetic experience" of the "information ethics" that misinformates by saturation and converts any event into a "show" of the real. This piece started as "video in progress" during the events that took place in Gaza in 2014. I extracted images from the network of two antagonistic "visions" of the same conflict to be re-signified from the "island edition " or digestion. Not with a "hard" nor "soft" assembly (as claimed Farocki) where the images dialogue between them, they are mounted with the overlap here. The images scream them all at once because every war is a failed dialogue.
Building a temporal palimpsest with the aesthetic recreation extracted from information bombing until arriving to almost total abstraction, and invite us to contemplate this spectacle of light and color, as pure reality.

This performance video addresses a conflict of spectatorships - dialectics relationship in memory, interpretation and reality. A young woman sits in front of the camera. Her face dramatically obscures by make-up and a synthetic wig. She describes a strange experience she had with her husband in a theater. The subject shows the inability to discourse the memory and personnal identity through the complexities of langage and logic. The justaposition of life videos is taken from three different perspectives. Memory, present and fantasy are unexpectedly synched and un-synched. There is an affair. Or is there? There is an actress. Or is there? This scenario dramatically raises the question of the realities through an experiment in narrative, performance and video.

The editing image by image allows us to explain the connections that link each image, their contents and their symbols.

Trading Stories - A Cargo named Desire
42mn color stereo 2015 Austria
by Jennifer Mattes
self-production
distribution : sixpackfilm
Trading stories is in search of clues and tells one or several stories about storytelling and about love.
But trading story is no love story. Based on a journey from Hamburg to Qindao in 1905 from the director’s great grandfather, she followed his traces embarking on a containership. Today the route is an important trade lane. Therefore the filmed material is set in a trading context. But in search of the
clues the topic evolves sideways into found footage fragments and texts. The story can only be told by using these “sideways” and thus develops into an odyssey on the ocean of symbols, images and feelings. In a collage of the journey’s documentary graphical material, found footage from the internet and films as well as own lyrics and texts from other sources, dimensions and assumed consequences of a globalized, technological and networked world are dealt with on the platform of feelings. The containership’s cargo or load is the cargo and load of the story and all stories as well as the one of love. It becomes the metaphor for the unconscious, a representative of a society’s body, a symbol for the new beginning and the venture of life reflecting its tensions, ambivalences and contradictions. And ambivalence was already the archetype of the ship.

I remember that the Egyptians have a sign that combines a snake and foot, which I don’t know the meaning of. Its intended to convey the “dream-body”. II- WATERWORKS - TRT: 4.20 minutes Meditation on water: Water works with no set form. As gas, or liquid, or ice, it moves in every direction— the opposite of the material grid or linear progression… The human body is around 60% water. As such, we are affected by planetary forces, just like the tides in the ocean. Myth says we cross a river into the land of sleep that is shared with the realm of death, and dreams. III CUMIA - TRT: 5.13 minutes CUMIA's caves are considered the doorway to the underworld. Virgil writes that Aeneas landed there after the Trojan War, and asked the Sibyl to lead him on a journey into the underworld, where he could visit his father’s spirit in the land of the dead. Aeneas’ lineage would became the founders of Rome. The Cumian Sibyl has be represented by many artist, most notably Michelangelo, in the Sistine Chapel...

"Try to understand" is a cover version of "the trap", a song by Kat Onoma, which was mixed with Jack Spicer's voice reading out "Billy the Kid" in a San Francisco bookshop in 1959. This video is an attempt at re-viving the links between the text, the voice, the music and the revival of the text by Burger, as if we were going back and forth between the source of the evocation (a fading memory, a small river, the narrator and the kid, is it a trap ?) and the numerous images it generates. Repetitions, disclosures, erasures, the memory of a time internal to nature.

"Unillumined Corridors" (excerpt from video installation) is a video produced with the application developped for the installation "Unillumined Corridors". "Unillumined Corridors" is an abstract piece that can be seen both as a generative installation and as an abstract film. The piece is neither complete random, nor based on a complete fixed design. By a literally endless alternation of horizontal and vertical lines one experiences an atmospheric feeling of strongly changing scales that refers to textures and urban landscapes.

This short experimental piece is based on the life of 18th Century Irish patriot Anne Devlin. She was captured, interrogated and questioned by soldiers during the first organised armed rebellion in Ireland in 1798. A rebellion which was directly influenced by the success of the French Revolution. On being questioned and tortured in jail she refused to speak or give any answers. Because of her silence, members of her family were executed by hanging. The video explores the idea of silence as being not a sign of weakness - but an act of defiance. The Irish actress Brid Brennan appears in the video. She originally played the role of Anne Devlin in Irish film director Pat Murphys 1983 Film, ANNE DEVLIN.

As of April 2003, I undertook a video project which consisted of filming as close to reality and as often as possible, two untypical people of my entourage. Under a poetic and intimate angle, what was revealed by their silent interrogations, was the perpetual anxeity of their seamless existence and the omnipresence of boredom. Lost in their respective universes, they forget the world in tandem, their force lies in their power of inertia over the exterior.

The artist attempts to translate perceived energy (of the city) into energized perception by means of a stream of images in which the spectator has no alternative but to immerse himself completely as into a wave. The generally accepted representation of a city as a homogeneous, clearly structured unified whole gives way to a dynamic, fragmentary and individual perception of the urban environment.

Metropolis: sunday morning, between open end and twilight, between hope and resignation, between following a dream and returning that night to the home town or village outside. Coming from the disco, full of the impressions of that juicy girl or that horny boy, doubtful of whether preserving innocence or following the instinct for an outstanding erotic adventure. It is the moment of not yet knowing, vacillating between yes or no. It is a same ritual each week-end, even if decisions are made once. It is a game between identifying and identity. The work describes the urban landscape as a scenario of a play, where the protagonists are embedded in without any chance to escape. Voice and sound performance by Agricola de Cologne.

"The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles" Karl Marx. All this is true, but is it not also the history of Migration. And in fact the History of the Refugee. No matter if you believe in evolution, or some form of creationism. Or if you believe that aliens brought us here, or just messed with the monkeys( like my father once hypothesized to me as a child). Almost all of us are the byproduct of a migration in one form, or another. How many of us live in the same place as we were born, and/or where all our ancestors were born since the dawning of man. Very few I imagine. Growing up in a country created by immigrants, and refugees. How peculiar it is that this anti immigrant, and refugee rhetoric is now our political leaders mantra. This vicious circle of the once oppressed, turning into the oppressor of the now. Every layer of this video is related in some way to Refugees, Immigration, Migration, and the clash of cultures that ensues. Thrown together like those first early immigrants on Ellis island.

"Utopia Variations" is part of a series of video works that use the computational capacity of computers to transform iconic moments in works of classic Hollywood cinema. In this piece the "over the rainbow" sequence from The Wizard of Oz moves forward from the beginning and backwards from the end in half second intercuts. This gradually builds to a 25 voice split-screen canon in which each voice is slightly out of sync. The resulting matrix is mesmerizing, kaleidoscopic.

Valstar Requiem

This video is built according to a (very) free adaptation of the television film Gilles Deleuze's alphabet primer realized by Pierre-André Boutang and Claire Parney (1988-89/1996), and more particularly of the letter "D", "Desire". The soundtrack, a feminine voice(vote), quotes Deleuze. Antoine Miserey realizes here a video consisted of fragments of films which evoke personal, amateur films, memories (souvenirs) of holidays in the minimal narrative contents. The "heroines" ("heroin") of these short histories are feminine faces (figures) which appear by moment and which seem to be the objects of this desire, the subject of which would be the voice-over, another woman. It is thus question of escaped (fleeting) desires of a woman for women, in particular environments which are appropriate (clean) for them, the "layouts" ("organizations") about which speaks Deleuze. This video can so appear as a continuation (suite) of memories (souvenirs). The title, a mark (brand) of beer, in the rough tones, evokes maybe on the contrary the rough drive, and between contrasts it with the gently nostalgic contents of the video. Emilie Bouvard

The meanings of violence are twisted and subjective and one can find it hard to digest the rhythm at which the images appear, disappear and metamorphose into drawings and symbols. There’s a desire to seduce the viewer, to entangle him into an erotic and softly aggressive journey.

It’s impossible to look back at 1985, the year my father died, without feeling bitter about our relationship. To his consternation, I became interested in art, classical music, and shooting/editing moving pictures. These were useless things that didn’t fit into my father’s very practical notion of life. But I am what I am, and I shot what I shot. And I’m still shooting.

Arne Körner makes "small" movies without fantasy, reflections without excessively leading (he leaves this to the viewer in order to draw them in). It requires no “content” in the popular sense, due to his well-formed and masterful imagery which is full of content. VIEW POINTE contemplates an island; the rushing sea, bays, peculiar foliage and buildings are perused. It progresses as if it is a thriller, though it is the objects which are the focus – they create an exciting undertone; they describe, silently coaxing the mystery which the island is hiding.

On January 29th of this year, a 19 year old man hijacked the Dutch news broadcast of the NOS, the biggest news broadcaster of the Netherlands. He got into the studio with a fake gun, demanding airtime to broadcast a message that, according to him, would concern everyone- but it never got to that. The security guard he took hostage on the way in lead him to an empty studio, where cameras were rolling and the microphone was on. Meanwhile, the NOS building was evacuated, and screens went black. For the first time in 60 years the channel did not run the 8-o clock edition of the news. The word spread fast, and the absence of the news became the new news.

"We want angel" restages the final showdown of Sam Peckinpah’s Western classic the Wild Bunch (1969) as a modern tale of Sisyphus. Running as a real-time loop with custom software, Peckinpah’s heroic bloodbath becomes a psychedelic trip of non-stop shootouts, an eternal orgy of fetishistic self-destruction that borders between the sublime and the mundane. The never-ending cycles of shootings-killings mirror and unwind the obsessive-compulsive disorder of (male) destructive heroism/eroticism that haunts the history of narrative cinema.

The light, lyrical video juxtaposes the illusory television dramatics of the Wheel of Fortune game show with 49 images of a comparatively even-keeled, anonymous life in all its quiet, beautiful and mundane glory. My assignment was to meditate on a specific aspect of god and capture a corresponding shot each day for the 49 days leading up to All Souls Day, November 1. I adapted the practice from the Jewish custom of the Counting of the Omer, 49 days to purifying the soul. I was drawn to the thorough methodical practice and daily abstraction of considering the sum and substance of life itself. The Wheel of Fortune adds an element of drama and chance that we play substance of life itself. The resulting piece is a personnal deliberation on the cycles and rhythms of daily life.

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.

by Katrina Stamatopoulos & Alexandra Spence
self-production

The subjects in this film are characters of their own worlds, their own realities. Observing from afar, you are a hidden witness. Inspired by imaginary journeys, "Wind Up Bird" is a result of an audiovisual collaboration between Sydney artist Katrina Stamatopoulos and Toronto based artist Alexandra Spence. This film is part of an ongoing project that explores the powerful and inextricable link between sound and the moving image. ‘Collecting used footage from eBay, I am always uncertain of its age, content and history. My expectations are lost as I view the films, and a journey begins to a far away land, that appears so close as if it to be dreamt or imagined.’ Katrina Stamatopoulos. ‘Wind Up Bird developed intuitively into a sound world built on undulating waves of static. The sounds, taken from my archives of field recordings and improvisations, beckon with suggestions of melody and memory, creaking, twirling and fragmented.’ Alexandra Spence

Source material is a found footage super 8 film. The visual carrier was attacked in a multitude of ways. It was scratched, cut open and violated. I captured an attempt to screen it. There it burned and was destroyed by the projector. Sorry little film. With the video footage I provoked the encoding. As a result some pixels were dislocated. In the end I reshot the film from the monitor while I somehow angered the cables that connect the monitor with my computer. That all may sound very negative and destructive to you dear reader but the goal was an almost humanist one: Unification of the digital with the anologue world. They seem so far apart and yet they aren't. By exposing every material's weaknesses and injuries it was made one. It's all visual sensations in the end. Rita Hayworth grindily sings along.

XXI
5mn color stereo 2012 France
by Marc Parazon
self-production
self-distribution
This film has a monolithic and uniform atmosphere. Its global feeling is anxiety, a fear of a dangerous event about to happen.
In the soundtrack, we can hear a musical composition that is evolving very slowly and is made out of a unique sound material : human voices holding a note which sustain seems to be infinite.
The image you can see is a simple geometric figure, almost monochromatic, which transforms itself into a more complex figure in a slow and impercetible way.
The musical composition is partly based on the works of La Monte Young : a music freed from the occidental notion of rythm and from the regular pulse that indicates the passing of time.
Here, the sound piece seems to have neither beginning nor end, and does not propose any outcome or resolution: it is the feeling that prevails.
The geometrical figures (oblique, cross) evolve slowly. A simple bar becomes a cross. Other bars appear through transparency . In the initial monochromy, bits of colours burst out inside the figures.
The minimal outlook of both sound and image are part of a global aestethics : infinitesimal variations can cause sensations of great intensity.

The film is an attempt to break with the often explanative visual presentations of narrative films. In "Young Lions" traditional re-enactments have been replaced by exterior shots of a block of flats where the murder could have taken place, intermixed with filmic details intended to portray the experiences of the victim as the assassination progressed.

"Timeless"... We live in a restless world, which is changing faster than ever. What was true yesterday is already meaningless today. Irena Paskali is seeking in her work "Timeless" for the never changing condition of mankind, the essence of human being. On the one hand, it is the human quest for meaning and wisdom, emblematised by the apple. The little girl, standing on the edge of a small lake, still in the need to find her way into life. Secondly, it is the spirituality of man, who strives for transcendence - depicted by the scenes around the historic center of Ohrid, Jerusalem, the Dome of the Rock, Golgatha - it is also about loneliness and being abandoned, impressive staged through the woman, whose face is not visible - and her slow steps upwards the stone stairs.

"[ekimoz]" is first of all born from pure graphic and visual will.

Its graphic texture participates in the mineral, vegetable and animal universe(...) This musical entity,linked to the phonetic symbol of the title, tenses towards a fissure, an asperity of being. Also the flesh itself of the images is contaminated, it wipes out, sucked by the colour of the sonic flux which pulls along and dies with it, drowned by the bluish rain of an "[ekimoz]".

But in the encoding and retransmission occurs errors and interpretations. Errors are corrected by assumption and habit. But what if errors were considered as a new signal, a new creation from the media?
Let us consider that the act of looking modifies and influences the nature of the object itself: is what I see and hear really identical to the original message ? Is this the authentic one? And if not: what is it? What I see and hear is not an obviousness.
