EXCERPT OF A DAY
Mira Sanders‘Excerpt of a Day’ is an episode of sound from a day, from an everyday life. For Sanders, the perception of the ordinary, while walking, observing, exploring the space, is always a form of enquiry. In ‘Excerpt of a Day’, the real is returned to the possible...
THE ASCENT OF MAN. PART III: ACTS OF CONSUMPTION
Jayce Salloum’Acts of Consumption’, to consume or to consume oneself. Sex and violence, sermons of love and social struggle, demonstrations, demolitions. The analogies become almost narrative. From a sex scene to a dissection one, we pass from love to science by interposed organs. Lovers’ hands caress, those of the doctor dissect. Science brings forth technology : screens, clocks, machines.....
POLYFONISTEN DEEL 1
Stefaan DecosterePolyphonic music developed in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in the courts and religious centres of Europe, and was a method of composition whereby the various voices were treated as wholly or partly separate from each other.

A MESSAGE FROM SPACE IN MY BACKYARD
Krassimir Terziev"It is far from rational from the perspective of single human life to imagine that a piece of space shuttle, after being launched some 20 years ago, would hit a woman in her backyard in California, or a piece of derelict Russian satellite, after orbiting the earth for a several decades, would reach its final destination in the desert of Australia in front of local shepherds...
MADAME PAUL SIX, UNE FERMIÈRE QUI A DES LETTRES
Jacques LennepVideo, apart from photography and holography, was but one of the media Lennep made use of during the 1970s, as he was adding on to his ‘museum of men’. His human models were derived from all layers of the populations, but they shared a common obsession for collecting things or, at the very, least an unusual passion...

Jacques LennepIn the seventies Jacques Lennep worked on his « Musée de l’homme», a series of exhibitions, performances and videos in which eight figures were shown over the course of time in an artistic context, according to a wayward conception of sociological art...
CARTOON FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A CERTAIN FONDNESS FOR IDEAS, BUT ARE TIRED OF THINKING
Steve ReinkeSimple line drawings form and wriggle against a light purple background, each linked to a verbal proposal. “Every door eventually leads to the world, but we have no doors.” The interstices between words, scribbles and desire explored....

_IMOVIE[3]_: SILVER LIPS / FOR ME
Els OpsomerA few years ago Els Opsomer went to Palestine. There she shot the first of her three ‘_imovies_’ with the Apple software she uses to edit her photo-based digital videos. These films are video letters expressing feelings of estrangement, and they give evidence of the difference between the world as it is experienced and the objective world ‘out there’...
DE STOEL WAAROP IK ZIT / LA CHAISE SUR LAQUELLE JE SUIS ASSIS
Jan VrommanJan Vromman is not actively concerned with the creation of an oeuvre; he rather makes an impulsive use of wide ranging styles and gestures. The DVD ’De stoel waarop ik zit’ (‘The Chair I Sit Upon’) consists of two parts...
