TEST
Pascal BaesThese experiments for Baes’s stop motion film ‘46 bis, rue de Belleville’ are an art work in its own right. The stop motion technique he uses belongs to the realm of animation. He never handles the camera in an obvious way, but shoots frame per frame in order to come up with a dreamlike staccato effect...
GUIDE DE POLITESSE À L'ATTENTION DE NOS FORCES DE L'ORDRE
Charley CaseIn the streets of Tokyo, a young guy is handing out flyers to the passers by. We are not informed for what company or goal he is distributing these.

GOD MOVES ON THE WATER
Erik BüngerIn this intriguing and at times startling exploration of narrative, Bünger collides two very different interpretations of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. The music video of Céline Dion’s ’My heart will go on’, featuring clips from the 1997 film ’Titanic’, is manipulated to fit a much earlier blues song about the same event...

SILENT CHINA
Mira SandersFor ’Silent China’, Mira Sanders did not want to capture images, but sound. While the image remains black, subtitles give us a fragmented impression of a journey through China, including the exact place and date of the recordings. The video was presented together with a folder on which several drawings, conceived as a description of noise, had been printed...
RAW MATERIALS
Justin BennettBased on personal memories reaching way back into time, Raw Materials creates a resonant patchwork with fragments of field recordings originating from divergent cities like Fribourg (Switzerland), Barcelona or Beirut. With a pitch-black image as canvas – a technique that actively shifts the attention towards the sound – snow-white text lines appear one by one in typewriter style...
