LOOKING UP

Bernard Gigounon
‘Looking up’ is, as Gigounon puts it himself, a trip through time and space between the astounding and reality. The short video starts with a sky at night, accompanied by the mesmerising sound of an army of crickets. We look up, as the image evolves very slowly it becomes clear to us that the thing we thought to have seen is not actually what it was, or is...

A DAY FOR CAKE AND ACCIDENTS

Steve Reinke - Jessie Mott
Reinke continues to explore the quirky possibilities of the animation film, collaborating once again with Jessie Mott, who delivers her idiosyncratic drawings, paintings and collages, plus also wrote the accompanying texts. References to cartoons and comics are once more evident, though Reinke stays somewhat of a league of its own...

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 53.THREE PLAYS

Steve Reinke
Three mini-plays : ’How I imagined it would be’, ’Marshmallow Roast’ and ’Game of Catch’....

SANGAM

Charley Case
Applying image analogies, and flecked throughout by an Indian mythology featuring Biblical allure. A sail down the Ganges is described in a filmic way: one lets himself drift along on a raft, the other walks along the riverbank, their gazes locked. An introspective journey....

THE BLOB

Gert Verhoeven
In 2001 Gert Verhoeven presented a first draught of ’The Blob’ (2001) on a wide screen at the Palace for Fine Arts (BOZAR). This video is a report on the World Pumpkin Confederation Contest in Buffalo, New York and Port Elgin, Ontario, Canada...
