FOSSILIZATION
Kurt D'HaeseleerThe video ‘Fossilization’ was produced as part of the ‘Memory Lane’ project, commissioned in 2005 by the International Film Festival Rotterdam. The traditional idea of soundtracks as translation and extension of moving images was reversed for the occasion: five video makers were requested to produce a work based on a composition by David Shea...
ET[-
Peter DownsbroughET[- opens with a silent black-and-white close-up of a vertical rod shuttling back and forth across a mechanical loom. The short sequence could be mistaken for footage from an early 20th-century propaganda film. Cut sharply to the next scene, also in black and white and taken from a fixed position but unmistakably contemporary...
BUSTUTAI
Gert VerhoevenIn 2001 Gert Verhoeven presented ’The Blob’. This video is an account of the World Pumpkin Confederation Contest in the United States. The style is similar to a documentary, but it is extremely fragmented for lack of a storyline or any clarification...

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 01. EXCUSE OF THE REAL

CONCRETE & SAMPLES III: CARRARA

The backs of different persons were filmed, focusing each time on the spot between the shoulder blades.

THE MUSIC BOX
Jef CornelisIn 1932 Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy shot ’The Music Box’, a remake of ’Hats Off’, their silent movie from 1927. The location in both films is the same; the only thing that is different is the object the movers Ollie and Stan have to drag up: in the first draught it is an automatic washing machine, in the second a piano...
WAAROVER MEN NIET SPREEKT 1: HOME SWEET HOME
Jef Cornelis’Home Sweet Home’ is a manifesto against the dictatorship of the bourgeois notion of the ideal home. ’I rented a house with a garden’ is still a current slogan, even if people buy apartments, villas and country-houses. People attempt to hide themselves in their homes and as a consequence a kind of social isolation arises that prevents the necessary community spirit...
