Pas de Deux (directors cut) 2007 Pas de Deux is a choreography for two Dutch right-wing politicians, or better, for their hands. The two are from different parties, one moderately right wing, the other more populist. They are trying to appeal to the same voters, the nationalistic islamophobics, without sounding too extreme. And of course, like all politicians, without really saying anything. The work is edited on rhythm and hand movements with a selection of words taken from the raw footage (a parliament discussion about people having two nationalities and two passports).

eddie d (1963-2049) graduated at AKI Videoartdepartment in 1991. His work consists of photos, videotapes and video/computer installations. Themes are deconstruction of language, rhythm and the relation between image and sound. His videotapes are musical compositions in which he uses his very exact editing technique to build rhythmical structures with repetition as a striking element. Music is a basic influence; as a formal starting point as well as a source of structures and patterns. His work is internationally considered the standard in this genre of video art. He uses found footage combined with self-shot video and animated photos. Working with language (as seen in his videopoems) has evolved into the de-construction of words and sounds. This transforms into compositing sounds from single letters, that would be almost unpronounceable. He is also further exploring the concept of still live in video/computer installation. These still lives have their roots in movie scenes and a photo archive that he build over the past 15 years. The photos, made during his travels, show a search for the exceptional in the ordinary; table-lamps, furniture and household wares are favorite subjects. Mr d did also several `live music` projects were he worked together with composers to create works in which video and sound are tightly integrated in the work. He wants to prevent the one from being illustrative to the other and make the video an extra musician on stage. Mr d also occasionally presents "the eddie d lecture", where he talks about his influences and shows favorite film and tv fragments, cartoons and music clips that relate to his own work. He tries to make the lecture he himself would want to see, which means less talk and more image and sound.

"Nice and Fresh and Greasy" is a video-opera about beauty, commercialism, and the freshness of grease (or the greasiness of fresh). It is a musical video-collage in which found footage elements and music are tightly integrated to form a dynamic, uplifting composition. With this work, Eddie D again shows that he is the master of rhythmical video. He worked in collaboration with Dutch composer Jaap Dercksen, and the music is composed in conjunction with Eddie D's video-editing process. After selecting and pre-editing some video and sound, Eddie D sent his work to Jaap the composer, who then wrote a ground layer of music. He then sent the score to Eddie D who edited more video and again sent his work to Jaap, and so on and so forth, until the piece was ready. The images are from tell-sell TV and a 1960's television commercial. All this is rhythmically accompanied by a man who plays the spoons and likes to use his mouth as a musical instrument. The work shows that, when you have guests, a nice tablecloth is always appropriate.

Eddie D's work consists of photos, videotapes and video/computer installations. His themes include deconstruction of language, rhythm, and the relation between image and sound. His videotapes are musical compositions in which he uses his nearly perfect editing technique to build rhythmical structures with repetition as a striking element. Music is a basic influence - as a formal starting point as well as a source of structures and patterns. His work is internationally considered the standard in this genre of video art. He uses found footage combined with self-shot video and animated photos, and mixes layers of cut-out images in a collage-like technique that combines video and animation.

Images from Iraq motivate a girl to protest against the war. But Berlin's lifestyle of film sets and glossy advertising images cover any meaningful effort. The disillusions start to make her physically sick. Her hopes return when she meets a renowned advertising guru that turns her into the star of a worldwide peace-show. Yet, again, all she gets is a hollow spectacle, designed to entertain and reassure. Together with another disappointed girl she decides to take radical measures.

Un siècle d’images recherchées et retrouvées, fragments de celluloide, films de famille, bandes magnétiques, pixels. Un Saint martyr, un guerrier, Sant’Efisio, icône qui meut les gens. Un rite qui se répète hors du temps, qui porte le masque des dominations passées et présentes d’une île, la Sardaigne. Qu’est-ce qui nous échappe ? Qu’est-ce qui nous reste ? Question et réponse à la fois, fondement du montage, renouveau du passé dans un autre passé. Dans cette rencontre de regards décalés se renouvèle la fête dans la mémoire et dans le rêve, loin des lieux communs.

1861 - 1971 – 2011. Dates, but also firm props of the official rhetoric that formulates and reformulates the interpretation of actual history. 1861’s celebrations of Italian Unification see us now in this tough 2011, disclosing a strong emphasis that clashes against the unresolved Italian past. Playing with the banality of historical dates, the film wedges a third date Reggio Calabria’s 1971 revolt. Unsettling shadows coming back to disturb the order with which politicians wish to govern the present crisis.

Purificacion Crego is incarcerated since 11 years in the prison of Avila, at 100 km from Madrid. Today, she?s 29 years old. She?s two weeks away from leaving jail. La tercera vida is an encounter with this woman, in prison since she was 18, and who?s about to get back to freedom. It?s a closed door portrait, an intimate and spontaneous testimony during which the events of her past, her daily life in prison and her perspective on freedom are unveiled.

"Création & utilisation d`éléments de diffusion mobile, dans un soucis de perte de repères spatiaux et d`immersion dans le son. Création sonore et composition pour des dispositifs électroacoustiques originaux Dans les oeuvres sonores habituelles, les éléments de diffusions, les haut parleurs, sont fixes. Le son se déplace d`une enceinte à l`autre par un effet de mixage. Dans le noir total, lors d`une écoute attentive, chacun est capable de définir approximativement la place des hauts parleurs dans l`espace. Il s`agit ici, de proposer des systèmes de diffusion mobile suggérant un autre mode d`écoute et de diffusion, intensifiant la perte de repères habituels à l`écoute d`une pièce musicale. Une proposition pour partir à la découverte de nouveaux espace, où l?imaginaire et le rêve nous entraîne vers l?impalpable. Une proposition d?élévation, de révélation de l?invisible, un commencement, qui recommence, inexorablement, sans révéler sa suite, laissant à chacun le soin de la trouver" http://membres.lycos.fr/stocard/installations.htm

Rock BE, 2007, 7`02? Underneath a water surface or in an underwater world, we can see people floating. They could be a concert audience; listeners to music by TUK perhaps, for which Rock serves as a music video. But they are lying still, floating, beyond their earthly existence. Mesmerizing noise accompanies them through a channel of a pixel-infected nature that swallows them up and spits them out in a parallel universe where an artificial landscape of rocks and stones unfolds along a sea. In the worlds of Rock, it is impossible to distinguish digital from analogue, virtual from real, natural from artificial.

"For fossilization, d`Haeseleer used video as a kneading machine. Layers of images are moulded into a stickymess that absorbs and attractys everything it touches. It`s an apocalyptic endgame, starring several cars and some human remains and maybe even some wishful thinking on a moody. Rainy day."

Kurt D`HAESELEER was born in 1974 in Anderlech. He studied Audiovisual Arts at the Hogeschool Sint-Lukas in Brussels and Modern History in Leuven and in Vienna. Since 2001 he has been a member of the artist collective De Filmfabriek with realisation of several projects, for example live performances together with Tuk (aka Guillaume Graux) in the Beurrschouwburg in Brussels or the World Wide Video Festival Amsterdam.

_Imovie_[2] in-between/ shifting is the second video Opsomer made with the amateur software package ?iLife?, supplied with Apple computers. The video consists of photography of cities in Brazil and Senegal, which Opsomer visited. The photos of views from and onto high-rise buildings were later transferred to video in such a way that the urban structures appear to have been filmed right there on the spot. Nothing but the unnatural halted appearance of these images indicates we are in fact dealing with photography. During the film subtitles appear onscreen, constituting a video letter. The letter contains an investigation into the assimilation of Opsomer?s personal ambivalent impressions during her stays in the various cities.

ELS OPSOMER, *1968, lives and works in Brussels. She is a visual artist and graphic designer and for a couple of years she was an artist-in-residence at the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam. In collaboration with people like Johan Grimonprez, Herman Asselberghs and Ronny Vissers she realized a couple of multimedia installations. She draws from her constantly growing archive of urban images, puts together a commentary on and reinterpretations of global reality and at the same time she questions the contrast with the safekeeping of personal integrity in this reality.

River Plate displays a micro society in a fragmented body-narration. Knees, shoulders, feet and bellies are signifiers of articulated human presence, revealing nothing else against a claustrophobic background of cement, stone and water.

Born 1956 in Kötschach-Mauthen, Austria. Visual artist, studied sculpture at the Academy of fine Aers, Vienna. Short films since 1994. Lives in Vienna

`Competing for Sunlight` is a Short Dance Film Series, featuring protagonists of a range of different tree species and Dance, telling individual short stories. “The death of a species, especially a species as significant as the Ash, punches a hole not only in nature, but also in our culture”. - George Monbiot Starting in the early nineties in Eastern Europe, an Asian fungus has gradually conquered the European continent, infecting almost all ash trees. The symptoms are very severe, many cases leading to the death of most trees. As aresult, it is assumed that the ash tree in Europe will soon be close to extinct. Choreographer and dancer Dagmar Dachauer was inspired by the sad faith of the European ash tree, and linked it to personal loss in her own life. Finis est cinis: Ash is what remains. Ash is a eulogy for the ash tree and for Prasthan Dachauer, who passed away in 2016.

Dagmar Dachauer is a dancer, choreographer and filmmaker born in Linz, based in Brussels. She grew up in a lonely house in the Upper Austrian forest, a place that continuously inspires her work. She has studied Dance at Amsterdamse Hogeschool voor de Kunsten as well as at P.A.R.T.S. in Brussels. She founded the Austrian art association UMFUG, in which she realizes dance and theatre performances as well as film projects with collaborators coming from various backgrounds such as Ecology, Cinema, Theatre, Music and Sound Design. Her solo works about the Viennese Waltz (“Wunderbare Jahre” and “Wie soll ich das erklären”), as well as her dance films have received several awards and are touring internationally.

Celilo Falls is the oldest continuously inhabited community in North America, the site of a traditional fishery on the Columbia River. For 15,000 years, the cascading waters sustained the lives of many indigenous tribes. In 1957, the completion of the Dalles Dam–a massive hydroelectric generator–inundated the falls, displaced most of the families that subsisted at the site and obstructed the migrating salmon, white sturgeon and other anadromous fish. Today, only a few families reside at what is now a man-made lake. Shot from Horsethief Butte, an outcropping of basalt, we see the petroglyphs and pictographs created by indigenous people who once came here, communing here above the tumbling waters. An ethnographer records the spoken language–Chinookan–of the community just five years before they were displaced. The butte was carved out by the glacial activity of the last ice age, and stands in defiance to the signature winds wailing up the Columbia Gorge. This is a vignette of Celilo Falls during the 2020, SARS-COV-2 pandemic.

Don H?i Phú Daedalus (b. 1983) grew up in the shadow of the country's largest public observatory—an area so remote and sparsely populated that it served as the first plutonium-processing plant for the Manhattan Project. Shortly after the oldest human remains in North America were discovered near his hometown, Daedalus left to attend the University of Washington, where, coincidentally, the remains were to be held during the decade-long legal dispute between the Kennewick tribe and anthropologists. He lives and works in New York.

In der Videoarbeit "Duschszenarium" wird die lineare, filmische Abfolge der Einstellungen der Duschszene aus dem Film "Psycho" von Alfred Hitchcok durch das Element der Gleichzeitigkeit erweitert. Die ursprüngliche Struktur der aufeinanderfolgenden Schnitte wird aufgebrochen und ein Blick in die Mechanik der Szene wird geöffnet. Jede der Einstellungen behält ihre zeitliche Position innerhalb des Erzählstrangs aber bleibt nach ihrem Einsatz für die restliche Dauer des Clips als Loop erhalten. Durch die serielle, gleichzeitige Anordnung der Einstellungen bleibt es sowohl möglich dem Verlauf der Szene zu folgen als auch etwas über das Verhältnis und die Zeitlichkeit der Schnitte und Einstellungen zueinander im direkten Vergleich zu erfahren.

En assemblant des fragments collectés au fil de ses voyages, François Daireaux invente sa propre géographie sensible. Espace magnétique où dialoguent sans un mot les gestes, les mouvements et la matière, Aires est une expérience de perte de repères, un itinéraire au c?ur d?une sculpture vivante, d?un « Tout-monde. »

Né en 1966 à Boulogne-sur-Mer, François Daireaux vit et travaille à Paris. Il développe depuis une vingtaine d?années un art de l?installation qui intègre différents médiums : sculpture, photographie, vidéo ; conçus à partir d?expériences et de matériaux rapportés de ses nombreuses pérégrinations de par le monde. Loin de tout exotisme, en observateur minutieux, il s?attache aux gestes du travail comme à ceux de l?abandon, aux objets ouvragés ou laissés-pour-compte pour nous faire découvrir drames et merveilles au c?ur du quotidien. Depuis 2012, sa production d?artiste s?accompagne de la réalisation de films pour le cinéma et son travail commence à être découvert dans différents festivals européens. Documentaires sans dialogue, Daireaux manie dans ses films l?art du fragment pour nous entraîner dans des voyages immersifs au c?ur d?un réel incandescent.

Dairiki and Miura talk and play in their neighborhood.

Co-directors, Takuya Dairiki and Takashi Miura, were born in 1980 in Osaka, Japan. They have been friends since childhood and started making films together for fun, doing everything by themselves – directing, script writing, photography, soundmaking, acting, editing, and art work. "Dairiki and Miura 3" is the fourteenth film they have co-directed.

Sur une petite île au large de la Baltique, une idylle douce-amère entre l?homme qui tente de se faire une place et la nature qui n`en a cure.

"Dans le désordre, Catherine Dalfin a fait des études de lettres et d'histoire de l'art, s'est glissée à la radio pendant un certain temps, a croisé la route d'un collectif d'artistes, a été critique d'art pensant que ça valait la peine, a cru pouvoir participer à la création d'une revue et a finalement persévéré dans la vie après avoir touché une caméra." (Catherine Dalfin, juin 2009).

I had the idea of filming the passage of light in a past military area, on the shores of the Baltic Sea, in Liepaja Karosta. I very soon noticed that there was some diffuse presence, a continuous and ephemeral presence along the paths that would cross the district in all directions, and decided to include these strange passer-bys in the movie, wondering if they ever met.

Without any chronological order, studied literature and art history, made her way in radio for a moment, worked with a group of artists, has been an art critic because thought that it was worth it, believed that she could take part in the creation of a magazine and finally persevered in life after started to use video camera.

In Latvia, some people lived on an old military camp built in the middle of the forest by Soviet in order to accomodate an ultra radio telescope powerful to spy North America. Independence (in 1992) had not only positive effects on their life. More than ever, it is necessary for them to invent how make the life possible and pleasant.

The title refers both to a fictional unit of soldiers and their role in detaining the men standing on the stones in the field, and also to the role of a team in commercial film production to the role of shooting material without the requirement of the main cast and crew. The presence of the camera in observing events, and the characters awareness of it, in front of and behind the camera, lends the video a functional aesthetic that suggests it is made for tactical or intelligence purposes, but is made complicated by the soundtrack, where all the extraneous sounds of the surroundings are audible apart from the dialogue, which further obscures its reading.
