PERIPHERAL LIGHT AIR AND SUN
Krassimir Terziev - Daniel KötterIn most European cities nowadays many more people live in the peripheries than in the city cores.

FRAGMENTS
Shelly Silver"Fragments is an ongoing series of short videotapes ranging in length from 6 seconds to two minutes. These tapes can be seen as small drawings or sketches, bringing together pieces of ideas, overheard conversation and glimpsed images. They can also be seen, because of their structure and length, as advertising that doesn’t sell anything." (Source: https://www.shellysilver.com)...

NEAR AND FAR / NOW AND THEN
Ken KoblandA two-part film, one part unedited camera footage of a late Autumn to Winter woods, and the other a highly manipulated blue-screen re-photography process. Each part mimics the action of the other. Each is involved with a background-foreground, motion-to-still image juxtaposition: with the whole to the part, the arrested moment to the one just gone, the nostalgia of space and time.

Years of talking to myself, arguing, in an invisible courtroom. The ideas, fears, despairs that appear again and again. The world now, the world then, the past always prologue...
