THE THREAD
Hans Op de BeeckA Chinese proverb says that an invisible thread connects those destined to meet, despite time, place and circumstances. The thread can be tightened or tangled, but will never be broken. Taking this clear and simple metaphor as my starting point, I created a video as a visual love poem about a punk girl and boy who grow old together. Love and death here go hand in hand...
THE [AS
Peter DownsbroughTHE [AS, shot entirely in the airport of Geneva, Switzerland, is both an observation of daily events in a major transportation hub and a study of the characteristics of this building, which serves several Swiss international and long haul routes to North America, China and the Middle East.

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.

TASTE THE WORLD

VARKENSPEST / PESTE PORCINE
Jan VrommanFor several times the native village of the video maker, Wingene, was an epicentre of swine fever. Shaken by the mass destruction of pigs the artist made a poetical videogram with some self-made images and images from the TV news. Homage to the swines who fell on the sacrificial altars of profit seeking....
TOKYO-PICNIC
Pascal BaesThe setting is Tokyo-Sinjuku, towards the end of the month of May. Baes edits microscopic images of blossoming flora and fauna and urbane turbulence in a spastic stream of wriggling shapes and colours. The soundtrack of abrasive sounds and scouring textures complements the atmosphere of confusion and anxiety....
