What role does childhood play in developing experience? How are personal present and past connected in the process of aging? The longing for the places of the personal past was the reason for a trip to Flensburg in 2001 a few weeks before 9/11. More than 2000 photos were taken in just a few days. It was only many years later that the negatives were digitized and it was only more than 20 years later that the need to process these recordings into a composition arose. The turbulent German-Danish history on both sides of today's border and the places of childhood come together in a whole where the past merges into one experience in the now. 3636 images are processed frame by frame in the first 3 movements. Each movement is containing 24 sequences of stills. The amount of images in the stills increases from 4 to 625 images simultaneously. After the first 3 movements the process is repeated towards the infinite to end in structures similar to the layers one would find in rock formations.
Thomas Mohr is exploring processes of perception and memory systematically in performance, painting, video, installations. From 1985 onwards a growing archive containing more then 600000 pictures regarding a wide range of events of transition from a collective meaning to very personal moments. Distributed by LIMA.

After a moment of brightness, a memory unit containing 59.049 images is explored from the totality to its individual images, creating connections on various levels in various directions in a shifting dynamic system. Beginning with a sudden and rough recall of memories the information merges with increasing compression in several cycles and repetitive feedback to transform in an almost ad infinitum expanding time space topology of intense subtlety. The visual composition is inverted and disrupted several times by visual blanks of bright white. The original images were taken handheld in 2002/3 when the experience of 9/11 still was present. The composition is made frame by frame using “contact sheets” (6, 5 fps). The integration of the outdated format SD in the more contemporary HD leaves empty space in the memory levels and in the processing levels. The memory unit used in this video is the second out of nine units, which will become one total memory at a later stage covering 30 years from 1985 to 2015. The music composed by Michael Bonaventure (organ sounds) and René Baptist Huysmans (electronic sounds) is inspired by the poem “The Comet at Yalbury” by Thomas Hardy ?

Is it possible to understand the work of the artist and composer Hanne Darboven (1941 - 2009) famous for her large scale installation containing thousands of drawings and notes? The project Zu / On Hanne Darboven is an exploration of herless known music in relation to her visual oeuvre. Abschliessend (In conclusion) is based on 1853 pictures handheld taken- as meticolous as possible - very close to the details of the works in the last space of the exhibition “The order of time and things. The home studio of Hanne Darboven” organised by the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía and the Deichtorhallen Hamburg - Sammlung Falckenberg in collaboration with the Hanne Darboven. The music is the last part of Hanne Darbovens Requiem recorded in eleven volumes. The pictures are processed in still compositions frame by frame in a series of cycles increasingly compressing the original information.

Main themes recently the reverberation of historic incidents and and the intertwined relations of culture. Thomas Mohr’s particular way of composing films since 2008 begins with smallest elements - taking single images. This material is processed in repetitive steps to higly compressed structures where the visual properties are almost dissolved. Since 2010 works specifically related to the body of work of Hanne Darboven. Now working on constructing an episodic memory covering the information of 30 years (1985-2015).

One Year Life Strata
Video installation | hdv | color | 0:0 | Spain | 2018
During one year María Molina Peiró carried a wearable camera taking a photo every 30 seconds. The enormous collection of photos collected by the camera are shown in an online archive that instead of "remembering" creates a creative forgetting of the vast photo archive. One Year Life Strata proposes a visual metaphor of forgetting by transforming the digital images into what is likely the ultimate memory trace that will remain from us: The geological record. The project, in a sort of digital geology, mines the data from the strata and invite viewers to investigate one year of Maria Molina's life through an AI vision system, not concerned about personal memories but the collection of patterns and numbers they contain. In a society obsessed with recollection, data and monitoring One Year Life Strata addresses the disturbing territory of forgetting. Today that we have the tools to remember and archive almost everything, forgetting has become a term very close to death raising very similar fears. One Year Life Strata wants to overcome this fear and embrace forgetting in a game of time scales, where the speed of Digital Time is buried into a time difficult for us to grasp, the slow Deep Time.
María Molina is an audio-visual artist and filmmaker with a background in fine arts. She works in an open format mixing film, digital media and experimental animation. María Molina´s films and art works have been showcased in international museums like Haus der Kulturen der Welt (Berlin), EYE Film Museum (Amsterdam), MACBA (Museum of Modern Art Barcelona), Hong-Gah Museum (Taipei), Centre de Cultura Contemporània Barcelona (CCCB), MATADERO (Madrid) or Museum of Contemporary Art of Vojvodina (Serbia) among others. Her works has been featured in festivals like Rotterdam Film Festival, Art Futura (Barcelona), Taiwan Video Art Biennial, MADATAC (Madrid), VISS (Vienna International Film Festival) or Forecast Forum (Berlin). In her work she explores the increasingly blurred boundaries between material and digital realities. She is particularly interested in the convergences between different memory systems (from Geology to Digital Memory) and how the ubiquity and pervasive nature of Digital Technology is reframing our spatial and temporal perspective. Her films and installations often use metafiction, postproduction and geo-tools to unfold layered realities that connect humans, technology and nature. Her current research focuses on humanity's constant struggle with its temporal and spatial limitations, and how this struggle has driven civilisation and technology to change our relation with nature, time and our understanding of life itself.

I am in a supermarket. Instead of buying the products I need, I buy that ones that the others want. Does a product taste better when is desired by the others? A supermarket is a very common place in our daily life which represents well today`s capitalist system. Through my action I attempt to confront the idea of consumer choice and desire. Transcending the comic or quirky, the video promotes the possibility of a critical engagement with consumer values and cultural behaviour. It has without being propangandist a political agenda.

Moore Street
Fiction | 35mm | color | 5:35 | Ireland | 2004
Moore Street is a single tracking shot filmed on Moore Street in Dublin, Ireland. The film is in Swahili and English. For five minutes, we follow the thoughts of a young African woman in Ireland as she considers her past, her future, and her unfolding sense of identity as she walks along the city street at night. On the one hand Moore Street documents an iconic street in Dublin at an interval in its official re-development, where already the everyday hopes and dreams of new communities are reshaping the city as home. On the other hand it is a love letter whispered in the dead of night to an absent lover.
Christine Molloy and Joe Lawlor both hail from Dublin, Ireland. They are now based in London where they make film and video works for cinemas, the internet, sites and galleries. Moore Street is part of a series of 7 35mm short films by Molloy and Lawlor under the title Civic Life and was part of Ireland?s entry into the 2004 Sao Paulo Bienal.

Salvador Dali meets science fiction in a fantastical vision from an alternate reality. Cows, superheros, video games, luxury hotels, and operating rooms seamlessly meld in a surreal exploration of value and power in the digital era. Trapped in an endless loop of seductive but ultimately vacuous simulation where meanings don’t quite materialize.
American artist Jonathan Monaghan (born 1986, New York) creates sculpture and animated video installations that challenge the boundaries between the real, the imagined, and virtual. Pulling from wide-ranging sources such as science fiction and baroque architecture, he creates bizarre, yet compelling, virtual environments and stories with the same high-end technology used by Hollywood and video games. His work has been exhibited worldwide in venues such as Bitforms Gallery in New York, BFI Southbank in London, Eyebeam Art & Technology Center, The Hirshhorn Museum in Washington D.C., and the Moving Image Art Fair London. His work has been featured by The Washington Post, Metropolis M, The Huffington Post, TimeOut NY, The Wall Street Journal and NYC TV.

Experimental film | 16mm | | 0:0 | Canada | 2012
Gephyrophobia ? latin word for ?the fear of crossing bridges? - was shot in Ottawa/Gatineau, Canada. Inspired by pet architecture, a term coined by Japan?s Atelier Bow-Wow, and seeking to integrate the experience of the cinema into that of the city, the Situated Cinema references small buildings that have been squeezed into leftover urban spaces. The small cinema space, which can be demounted and which will travel to unorthodox locations across Canada, is intended to provide an alternative cinema-going experience: rather than constructing an immovable structure situated more or less permanently in the city, the Situated Cinema Project will construct a mobile micro-cinema that can be situated into various spaces, tapping into the flow and energies of the city. The cinema will screen a loop of five specially commissioned silent 16mm films from artists across the country.
Caroline Monnet is an award winning filmmaker and visual artist working in film/video, installation and printmaking.

Experimental doc. | hdv | color and b&w | 13:0 | New Zealand | 2015
SYNOPSIS Film essay recorded in Aotearoa / New Zealand`s Cascade Cove, Tamatea / Dusky Sound; one of the wettest places on earth. After he had sailed there for the first time in 1770, James Cook spent more than two months in Tamatea in Aotearoa on his second journey in 1773. Cascade Cove within Tamatea is also near to the sites of the earliest archeological digs of the lower fiords of Aotearoa. The Begg Brothers, then in the modern era, Peter Coutts, each made various archeological incursions looking for and removing both settler and Maori material culture from the area. This film compiles observations of the intensity of weather atmosphere as a physical expression of tension between elemental forces, as a way of approaching a contested past in which European research methods overran already existing Maori knowledge production about the area. This film is part of an ongoing series of work about this area of Aotearoa.

La Folie Almayer est l'adaptation faite par Chantal Akerman du premier roman éponyme de Joseph Conrad ; Une histoire de passion, de perdition et de folie quelque part en Asie du Sud-Est que la cinéaste est partie tourner en 2010 au Cambodge. Présent sur le tournage, Sopheak Sao a filmé la cinéaste au cœur de son travail dans la végétation exotique et dans les eaux noires d’un fleuve qui ne semble mener nulle part. Les images qu’il a filmées ont, après un archivage de dix ans, été montées par Marwan Montel, et montrent combien le travail formel et esthétique prend le pas sur l’aspect narratif dans le travail de la réalisatrice belge. Une véritable plongée au plus près de l'artiste, et une occasion exceptionnelle de se glisser au cœur de son travail.
Marwan Montel (né à Istanbul en 2001) est un monteur et réalisateur Français. Suite à ses études à l'IAD en Belgique, d'où il sort diplômé en montage-scripte, il réalise un film documentaire d’archive sur le dernier tournage de fiction de Chantal Akerman.

The film depicts the massacre of civilians in Geum-jeong-gul Cave in Gyeonggi-do in October 1950. This massacre, in which more than 153 people were killed in a village by South Korean military and police, was compensated by South Korean government in 1993 when it became known to the world through the efforts of the victims' bereaved families, but there is still no place for their remains in their home town.
As well as making movies, Kim Mooyoung also creates research-based media art, which is being exhibited in several countries. After four short films, SLOW DAY (2010), CONCRETE (2012), LAND WITHOUT PEOPLE (2016), and DAY AND NIGHT(2017), he directed his first feature film, NIGHT LIGHT (2018), which was invited to Busan International Film Festival 2018 and Seoul Independent Film Festival 2018.

Wild Life 9`21" 2006 Digital video This works behaves like an ethnographic register of the wild life. But, instead of pointing the camera to the animals or native tribes, the lens are focused on a group of tourists drifting in a boat trip through the glacial of Patagonia. Used to the massive and compulsive images production, the group reacts with an animal indifference in front of the camera.
Wagner Morales is a visual artist that works on video, photo, installation and music. Some of my works have received awards in cinema and video movie festivals, as well as contemporary art exhibits. The main feature of my work is the interdisciplinary research between medias, where one media can discuss the other. In 2004, I received a Visual Creation Award from the 14th Videobrasil (International Festival of Electronic Art), an artistic residency at Le Fresnoy ? Contemporary Art Studio, in Tourcoing, France.

Video | hdv | color | 29:26 | United Kingdom | 2020
Materiality Will Be Rethought by British-Irish artist and choreographer Joe Moran was developed as a site-specific live performance before being reimagined as a film work. The work navigates dance’s potential to animate and disrupt architectural space, the physicality of the dancer’s voice and the moving body as a site of political unrest and complex subjectivities. Materiality Will Be Rethought was commissioned by Whitechapel Gallery, London, in dialogue with the exhibition Carlos Bunga: Something Necessary and Useful (on display at the gallery 21 Jan – 6 Sep 2020). It is performed by dancers Temi Ajose-Cutting, Thomas Heyes (Blackhaine), Sean Murray and Eve Stainton, and created in collaboration with editor Sue Giovanni and cinematographer Alana Mejía González.
Joe Moran is a British-Irish artist and choreographer based in London with a wide-ranging practice incorporating theatre and gallery performance works, critical writing, curatorial projects and drawing. His work centres the body and embodied presence as a site of complex subjectivities and political unrest, with queering frequently deployed as its principal critical strategy. His work is informed by a background in improvisation and experimentation, and a fascination with the problems and opportunities of formal choreographic composition and notions of expanded choreography. Joe is Artistic Director of Dance Art Foundation through which his performance and curatorial work is produced and has worked internationally as a dancer with choreographers Deborah Hay (USA), Stina Nyberg (Sweden) and Siobhan Davies (UK) amongst others. Recent commissions and performances include Whitechapel Gallery (2020), Sadler’s Wells (2019), Nottingham Contemporary (NottDance, 2019), The Lowry Galleries (2019), London Contemporary Dance School (2019), Wysing Arts Centre (2018), Bluecoat (2018) coinciding with the Liverpool Biennial, Kettle’s Yard (2018), Sadler’s Wells (2017), Delfina Foundation (2016), ICA (Block Universe/ fig-2, 2015) in collaboration with Eva Rothschild and David Roberts Art Foundation (Frieze Art Fair, 2014).

Experimental film | hdv | color | 14:45 | Romania | 2024
Relying on oral and fragmentary histories, ‘I Am Also Part of the Three Turns’ traces the effects of a destructive earthquake in Bucharest and a concurrent flood it caused in a small town in Buzau, during a period of nationalistic urbanization in Communist Romania. In the capital, the destruction was seized as an opportunity by the authoritarian government to further raze large swaths of the city, invoking the earthquake as a mythological force in order to strategically replace rubble with new Soviet-bloc housing projects. Employing allegory as narrator, the film sketches a series of political congruences throughout a patchwork of intertwined landscapes, teasing out a temporally irresolute past that defies the linear cause-and-effect of both environmental disaster and authoritarian political repression.
monica maria moraru is a visual artist and filmmaker working between moving-image, sculpture, installation, and sound. Her multimedia work searches for cinematic referent across a wide range of materials. Across mediums, her work seeks to tease out entangled personal and political histories, searching for sensorial and cinematic resonances across a patchwork of temporal, relational and political histories.

Video | 4k | color | 11:33 | Canada | 2018
La vidéo Less is More or documente l’intervention in situ réalisée à l’intérieur du Toronto Dominion Centre, complexe architectural conçu à l’origine par Mies van der Rohe. Revisitant l’aphorisme de l’architecte, ce projet procédait par une activation des lumières des bureaux à l’intérieur des édifices. Le tournage aérien, construit en deux plans séquences, joue sur le caractère hypnotique des images afin d’interroger les codes spectaculaires de l’industrie cinématographique. Depuis 2010, Aude Moreau développe un vaste programme de recherche qui part de l’hypothèse que si le rétrécissement de l’espace public passe par l’utilisation du vocabulaire économique pour décrire nos réalités quotidiennes, alors, la résurgence du politique passe par l’infiltration sémantique de l’architecture qui abrite cette construction du langage. Ce cycle de travail a mené à l’élaboration de quatre projets d’intervention in situ qui ont en commun d’agir à l’intérieur de l’architecture corporative du gratte-ciel, sur la lumière qu’elle émet dans la ville et d’investir la réalité géographique de l’activité économique et financière où circulent les flux déréalisés et dématérialisés de la production. Les projets d’intervention in situ Sortir, La ligne bleue, THE END in the background of Hollywood et Less is More or, sont autant de signes lumineux qui appellent à une reterritorialisation du politique dans la ville organisée comme spectacle.
Depuis les années 2000, Aude Moreau développe un corpus d’œuvres combinant sa double formation en scénographie et en arts visuels. Détentrice d’une licence en arts plastiques de l’Université Paris VIII, elle a complété une maîtrise en arts visuels et médiatiques de l’Université du Québec à Montréal en 2010. Son travail récent a été présenté à la galerie de l’UQAM, Montréal, Canada ; à la galerie The Power Plant, Toronto, Canada ; au Casino Luxembourg - Forum d’art contemporain, Luxembourg ; au Centre culturel canadien, Paris, France ; à Anthology Film Archives, New York, États-Unis ; au RISD Museum, Rhode Island International Film Festival, Providence, Etats-Unis; au Fresnoy, studio national des arts contemporains, Tourcoing, France. Ses oeuvres font notamment partie des collections du Centre canadien d’architecture, du Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, du Musée d’art moderne du Luxembourg (MUDAM), et de la Banque d’art du Conseil des arts du Canada. Elle est récipiendaire du prix Louis Comtois de la Ville de Montréal, 2016, de la Bourse Claudine et Stephen Bronfman et du prix Powerhouse, 2011. Des comptes rendus critiques sur sa pratique ont été publiés dans les revues Esse, Espace et Art Le Sabord. Aude Moreau vit et travaille à Montréal.

Winter follows summer in a picturesque deserted garden, passed through by gardeners in integration dressed like road workers. Is contact with nature still able to stand against the disintegration of the social contract? The values of the Enlightenment and the spirit of Jean Jacques Rousseau seem to be surrounded by a modernity that is opposed to the possibility of harmony.
After studying history and philosophy, Delphine Moreau became passionate about creative documentaries, which she first explored through visual anthropology. In 2009, she won the Audience Award at the Premier Doc festival with La Société des Arbres as well as the Best Documentary Award at the Rencontres Cinéma Nature. She directed a series of short documentaries for France Télévisions, Saisons forestières. Then Marmites Khmères was selected in many international ethnographic festivals. With Les Gens du sucre, morceaux d'histoires, she won the Plume d'or at the L'ici et l'ailleurs festival. The film was selected in festivals such as FIGRA and by Images en Bibliothèques. In 2021, she co-directed (with Marie Famulicki and Corinne Sullivan) En Terrain Libre, a musical and documentary (award for best director at the Les sportives en lumière festival in Nice, selection at the FFIDH festival in Geneva, Les Écrans documentaire in Arcueil, FIPADOC in Biarritz, Docs au féminin in Rennes, Résistances festival in Foix...) With PARC, she questions our link to nature and to social and political utopias. At the same time, in a logic of shared creativity, she leads artistic education workshops that often give a voice to women.

En 1982, j?écrivais à Jean Genet pour lui demander s?il accepterait de parler de son temps passé à Fontevrault. J?ignorais à l?époque qu?il n?y avait jamais été emprisonné. Je ne reçu aucune réponse de sa part, et l?autorisation de filmer me fut refusée. Le motif évoqué : l?abbaye était en restauration, donc dangereuse. On me demandait de refaire une demande dans quelques années. Je décidais donc de m?introduire dans l?abbaye sans autorisation. Avec une caméra super 8, un trépied et une lampe de camping, guidé par quelques-uns des derniers prisonniers qui pouvaient se déplacer librement dans l?enceinte, je filmais durant plusieurs jours les lieux, les traces, les inscriptions sur les murs de l?enceinte centrale. Au total 6 galettes de 3 minutes. (Surpris par un gardien, je dus renoncer.) En 2010, j?ordonnais cette matière brute, sans rien y soustraire, ni vraiment la monter, en laissant les reprises de plans, et les hésitations lors du tournage. (Didier Morin)
