FOR THE RECORD
Fleur Khani - Ailien ReynsThis audiovisual work offers a contemporary insight in the lives of people in a metropole and researches more specifically the different forms of proximity.

LIGHT DISPLACEMENT
Meggy RustamovaThe starting point for this film were Meggy Rustamova’s many attempts to photograph a tree in Hiroshima, Japan. Aspects of war, escapism and fear are expressed in this audiovisual trip. The atomic bomb in Japan and the current nuclear threat between the US and North Korea is translated into the white, overexposed photographs, which fade into complete 'white-out' in the film...
THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 47. DREAM WORK
Steve ReinkeWe have been encouraged to analyse our sexless dreams as being latently sexual, full of repressed writhing bodies and blood-gorged organs. This project, this analysis is referred to as dream work. It assumes latent though is transformed by the processes of condensation and displacement into the manifest content of the dream...
DE STOEL WAAROP IK ZIT / LA CHAISE SUR LAQUELLE JE SUIS ASSIS

Edith DekyndtA flag made of 20 meters of black cloth, standing on the desert plateau of an active volcano, waves generated as if the mast movement of the fabric, forming a wave. When conditions are most favorable, the movement becomes sinusoidal and visually approximates the seismic waves discovered by the British mathematician Augustus Edward Hough Love (1863-1940)....

The efficiency controlling the traffic grid does not merely affect the existing living area, but also the form and pattern of a new way of living. Residential areas have turned into traffic zones; inhabitants are pushed back into their homes...

BOULEVARD D'YPRES / IEPERLAAN
Sarah VanagtThe Boulevard d’Ypres in Brussels, with its large and colourful Mediterranean stores, offers glimpses of the Tales of the Thousand and One Nights. Urban development is now driving out these shops selling couscous, dates and olives. It is this turning point in the history of her own street that Vanagt uses as a starting point for a ’microhistorical experiment’...
