Binder. Many people modify, hide, show off or retouch parts of their bodies in order to have certain social treatment. The experimental video ?binder? is an interpretation of the look and feel of trans FTM (female to male) whom want to be treated by everyone, in the role, which they desire. They are finding their own physical and social comfort by modifying a particular zone of their body. The routine fashion for Michael is to put on and take of the ?binder? daily in order to hide his chest and modify his body.

In 1964 Robert Gardner filmed the documentary ?Dead Birds?, this film explored the Dani people of New Guinea, one of the last areas in the World to be colonized at that time. Gardner was knowing for his work in visual anthropology and ethnographic documentary. ?Dead Birds? was criticized in the anthropological community for its inauthenticity, Gardner edited the sound and he recreated battle scenes. They also said that the movie did not make sense, because he broked the distance with the portrayeds. ?Shadows of New Guinea? makes a step in this inauthenticity. Andrés Pachón makes a rotoscoping (redrawn manually frame by frame) on original film`s fragments, creating shadows to the protagonists. The nature where actions are developed, the original context of New Guinea highland whose referent was recorded on camera, it becomes a huge background, a trompe l`oeil revealed by shadows. These shadows, and its consequent fictional effect, want to disclose the fantasy contained in the european imaginary of an exotic and tribal world. The shadows disclosed a background, a wall, that separates us from the ?other?.

Andrés Pachón born in 1985 in Madrid, where he currently resides. In 2008 he was graduated in Fine Arts from the UCM. Since 2005 he has been selected in several national contests, among them being prize "e-Crea 2010", Lleida, purchase prize 2012 in the "V International Prize Foundation María José Jove", Galicia, and finalist of the "Premi Miquel Casablancas" 2013 Barcelona. In 2010 he was part of the exhibition "Drug of the real" in Angeles Baños Gallery, Badajoz, gallery that currently represents him. In 2012 he has his first solo exhibition in Angeles Baños Gallery, entitled "In Memoriam". He has participated in international fairs such as "ArteSantander 2010", "JustMad 4", where he was finalist in the best emerging artist award, or "ARCO 2014". Also he has shown his photographs and videos on Berlin, ?Wege ums Kino? exhibition, or Lisboa, ?Que a dor nao seja mais do que uma recordaçao? exhibition. In the last year he has shown his last and fourth solo exhibition, ?Tropologías? in the Art Center of Alcobendas, Madrid; and his video works in Lázaro Galdiano Museum, Madrid, in ?VIVA Collections on Tour? show.

The piece "Ocean" was originally a conceptually designed, visual statement for a song by dutch musician, Olivier Heim. Looking for a connection between lyrics and aesthetics, we found main inspiration in the masterpiece by Alain Resnains "Last year in Marienbad". As we didn't want to copy and repeat exactly the same sequences of shots, we were just searching for an universal code, which made that kind of poetics legendary and original. The most important became, how to transfer contemporary sound and looks (meaning ; cinematography, style) into something classic and the other way round. What makes the classics attractive? We consider elegance in filmmaking as our motto and something that should be popular again.

Katarzyna Pacura, born 1986 in Lodz, Poland. Studied at University of Arts in Poznan, Poland, Douglas Gordon Filmclass at Stadelschule, Frankfurt am Main and German Film and Television Academy in Berlin (Dffb - directing). Film and video maker, scriptwriter and visual artists. Jan Szewczyk - born 1986 in Bialystok, Poland. Graduated from University of Arts in Poznan, Poland where currently he continues his Phd studies in contemporary art. Film and video maker, visual artists, cinematographer.

We see Max Horkheimer buying newspapers, we hear Hannah Arendt speaking about the mother tongue and making the invisible tangible. We also see Frankfurt am Main during the great (re)construction boom of the 1960s. We see demonstrations on the Römerberg and the presence of the American Forces in the Federal Republic of Germany during the cold war as well as scenes after the apprehension of members of the Red Army Faction. Housing shortages, urban development, youth and their future, guest workers, consumer society: these topics are repeatedly presented and discussed in the Hessen Schau news program from this period. The film deals with the concept of democracy, of having a voice and the contiguity between private and public space. These boundaries, which are in the process of dissolving, are made clear the storytelling in this film as fundamental strands of our social being. Laura J. Padgett’s found footage film SOLITAIRE is made from documentary film material and radio broadcasts of the late 1950s until 1972. It was culled exclusively from the Hessian Broadcasting Corporation’s (hr) archives.

The artist’s work explores unoccupied spaces, both real and imaginary, to reveal truths that are often overlooked. Like her subject, her work itself occupies the spaces between photographic storytelling and installation, between language and image, between history and current affairs. While she uses photographic media the results are always more than photographic objects. Since the nineties Padgett has produced a wide-ranging body of work, adopting various genres such as architectural photography, still life and urban street photography while exploring our ideas of communal and cultural identity. Laura J. Padgett’s work is often displayed in public spaces and plays with scale, material and the way we interpret images and their relation to history. The breadth of her work demonstrates an ability to move fluidly between genres, based on her background in painting, art history and architecture. Born in Cambridge, USA, Laura J. Padgett studied painting, film and photography at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn New York. Her conceptual approach to her projects stems from this background. Her further studies in film and art history, with Peter Kubelka at the Städelschule and at the Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main, respectively, broadened her approach. Laura J. Padgett exhibits internationally, and her work can be found in state and corporate collections such as the DZ-Bank ArtCollection, Frankfurt am Main. Her work is in the permanent collections of Museo Museion, Bolzano, Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg, Museum Wiesbaden and the Städel Museum, Frankfurt am Main. She is the 2017 recipient of the Marielies-Hess-Art Award. Laura J. Padgett lives and works in Frankfurt am Main.

Made of 360 fragments of found footage 360° videos, “- f(OO)f -” explores and recycles sequences recorded from cars, planes, video games, reports and home videos. Images are intertwined, intricated and edited, questionning both spaces of perception and representation, building a radical criticism of our contemporary visual culture.

Dirk Paes was born in Brussels, he lives and works in the Netherlands. He is one of the members of the JODI duo, who pioneered web-based art in the mid-90s. For a few years now, in parallel to their collective work, each of them is developing specific artistic researches on their own. Jodi’s work is featured in most art historical volumes about digital art, media art, and net art, and has been exhibited widely at venues such as documenta X, Kassel; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; ZKM, Center for Art and Media, Karlsruhe; Bonner Kunstverein and Artothek, Bonn; InterCommunication Center, Tokyo; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Center for Contemporary Arts, Glasgow; Guggenheim Museum, New York; MoMA, New York; Eyebeam, New York; and Museum of the Moving Image, New York, among many others. Jodi is regularly seen as part of an international group of artists, including Vuk Cosic, Alexei Shulgin, and Olia Lialina, who pioneered art on the web, usually referred to as net.art. In contrast to working in the institutionalized art world, they chose to work on the net because it gave freedom. The internet was a free space to experiment and communicate. This network of artists influenced each other and communicated using mailing lists such as Rhizome and Nettime (which was founded by Dutch media theorist Geert Lovink). After they met at the Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht, where they studied photography and video, they moved to Silicon Valley (San Jose, California) to learn about digital media. It was in Silicon Valley that they became familiar with the internet. Since 1995 they have been working together as Jodi, creating art on the World Wide Web. Although they are most famous for their web-based work, they also work in a wide variety of media and techniques like software, performances, installations, and exhibitions. JODI were among the first artists to investigate and subvert conventions of the Internet, computer programs, and video and computer games. Radically disrupting the very language of these systems, including interfaces, commands, errors and code, JODI stages extreme digital interventions that destabilize the relationship between computer technology and its users. They received a 1999 Webby Award in the category Net Art. In 2014, Jodi was awarded the inaugural Prix Net Art Award by Rhizome, a leading art organization dedicated to born-digital art and culture affiliated with the New Museum in New York. The influence of the work can not only be seen in the art world, but in internet culture too: the work is spoken about on forums of hacker sites and on YouTube many videos can be found reviewing, explaining, and researching wwwwwwwww.jodi.org with titles such as “weirdest website of all time” and “wwwwwwwww.jodi.org: secrets?”.

Dans cette ?uvre JoDi détourne et réinterprète les jeux vidéos grand publics utilisant la reconnaissance optique et les système de captation du mouvement, eux mêmes issus de travaux de recherche militaire des années 80. Le code des jeux vidéo est réécrit puis confronté à d`autres situations visuelles que celles prévues dans le scénario du jeu. En même temps qu`une réflexion sur les stratégies de contrôle et l`archaïsme du dispositif ludique proposé par l`industrie du jeu vidéo, JoDi met en réflexion le dispositif narratif du jeu vidéo et ses stratégies d`interaction. Le jeu altéré est confronté à des extraits de film de cinéma, ou de reportage TV, produisant une nouvelle trame narrative et renversant le rapport d`interaction. Le joueur devient observateur du dispositif, le jeu vidéo se trouve alors confronté à un scénario complexe soulignant les limites du schéma d`interaction du jeu initial.

JODI est un collectif formé par deux artistes, Joan Heemskerk (Pays-Bas) et Dirk Paesmans (Belgique). Ils ont débuté avec de la photographie et la vidéo, et au milieu des années ?90, ils ont été les premiers à créer des oeuvres en ligne. Ils explorent et subvertissent les conventions de l?Internet, des logiciels informatiques et des jeux vidéos. Dans leurs travaux récents, ils ont modifié des jeux comme Wolfenstein 3D, Quake, Jet Set Willy, et Max Payne 2. Ils désorganisent radicalement le langage même de ces systèmes, en incluant des interfaces, des commandes d?erreurs et des codes. JODI effectue des interventions numériques extrêmes qui déstabilisent la relation entre la technologie informatique et ses utilisateurs. JODI mène une réflexion critique sur nos perceptions et usages de l?informatique. Ils transforment et transportent à la surface les processus qui apparaissent habituellement dans le background, comme on peut le voir sur leur site, jodi.org : des crashes, les fichiers log-in, les certificats de sécurité de logiciels, le refus des services de garanties. Le travail de JODI a été présenté dans de nombreuses expositions internationales, et des festivals, comme la Documenta X. Ils ont reçu le Webby Award dans la catégorie art (UCSOB). JODI a été formé en 1994 par les deux artistes Joan Heemskerk et Dirk Paesmans. Joan Heemskerk est née en 1968 à Kaatsheue, aux Pays-Bas. Dirk Paesmans est né en 1965 à Bruxelles, en Belgique. Ils vivent et travaillent aux Pays-Bas. Heemskerk et Paesman ont tous les deux fréquenté le laboratoire d`art numériques CADRE, rattaché à l`université de San José de Californie, dans la Silicon Valley. Paesmans a également étudié sous la direction de Nam June Paik à la Kunstakademie de Dusseldorf. Le travail de JODI est réalisé spécifiquement pour être vu en ligne. Leur exposition inividuelle récente inclut INSTALL.EXE at Eyebeam, à New York, qui a été itinérante [plug-in], à Bâle, au BuroFriedrich, à Berlin; et Computing 101B au FACT Centre, Liverpool, Royaume-Uni. Leur travail a également été exposé, entre autre, au Centre for Contemporary Art, Glasgow; au Kunstverein à Bonn; au Stedelijk Museum d`Amsterdam; au Zentrum fur Kunst und Medientechnologie de Karlsruhe, en Allemagne, et à la Documenta X, de Kassel, en Allemagne.

For this work, JODI has undertaken modifications on the ultra violent video game "Max Payne", in which the character has to kill a great number of criminals on his way. Using the video game as a starting point, JODI compiled a series of cheats. These cheatings modify the behavior of the video game. They are often created by the programmers themselves, in order to help the players who find themselves stuck in a dead-end. JODI changed the structure of the program so that absurd perspectives and a few effects alter the realistic graphics of the game: we can see the muscular main character repeating idiotic movements. For instance, he sticks his angular head into a virtual matrix, his body appears semi-transparent ... This new treatment of the game can be seen as a free interpretation of the temporal effect of ultra-rapidity which makes Max Payne stand out from other games, slow motions allowing for a new perception of space and time.

The video performance Las Hermosas Invisibles proposes a post-mortem connection between Simon(e) Jaikiriuma Paetau and her/their recently deceased trans sister, Aérea Negrot. For many years, Aérea had been collaborating with Simon(e)’s artistic works with versatile sound creations. In Las Hermosas Invisibles, Simon(e) gathers and assembles all of these sounds present in previous collaborations, and responds to them in a new video-performance piece shot in the territory of the tum xula7xw of the sn??ay?ckstx people. The performance invokes Aérea’s spirit, memories, and the impact she had on Simon(e)’s life and work. Aérea’s artistic and emotional legacy continues to exist and communicate with Simon(e) through sound, music, and memory. The title ‘Las Hermosas Invisibles,’ directly references the term “hermosos invisibles” (beautiful invisibles) coined by Wayuu poet Vito Apüshana. This term represents the human and non-human entities that make up the living and thinking territory of the Wayuu people, with whom Simon(e) became acquainted through their collaboration with Wayuu artist Elizabeth Pirela. While the piece is dedicated to the memory of Aérea Negrot, it also encompasses a broader exploration of the legacy of other trans-ancestors spanning from Tibira do Maranhão to Sylvia Rivera.

Simon(e) Jaikiriuma Paetau is a German-Colombian interdisciplinary artist whose work spans video art, installations, experimental cinema, and performance, with a focus on decolonial themes and queer cultures. In recent years, Simon(e) has focused on inventing myths and utopias inspired by rural and urban cultures in Latin America, challenging hegemonic discourses. In this way, they have created interdisciplinary works and collaborations with racialized artists and historically marginalized communities, especially Emberá & Wayúu, non-binary sexual dissident bodies (including themselves), and rebellious LatinX trans women. Simon(e) studied Media Art at KHM Cologne and Film at EICTV Cuba. Their films and videos have premiered and won awards at prestigious festivals and exhibitions like documenta14, Cannes Directors Fortnight, New Directors/New Films MoMa & Lincoln Center, Berlin Biennale 11, BFI London, and the New York Film Festival. Notable awards and recognitions include the Emerging Talent Award at International Short Film Festival Oberhausen 2022, the Norman Award at Stuttgarter Filmwinter 2023, the Best Director Award at the Cartagena de Indias International Film Festival Colombia (FICCI) 2018, and a nomination for the Queer Palm at Cannes Directors’ Fortnight 2022. Simon(e) has presented their performances and video installations at renowned venues such as the Wexner Center of the Arts, HKW, Martin Gropius Bau, Kasseler Kunstverein, nGbK, Ballhaus Naunynstraße, Shedhalle Zurich, HAU, the Sharjah Art Foundation, and the Cinemateca de Bogotá. In 2023, Simon(e) held their first solo exhibition at the IBB Video Space of the Berlinische Galerie—Museum of Modern Art. The National Museum of Colombia recently acquired several of their works for its permanent collection. Since 2024, Simon(e) is co-founder and artistic director of the transnational German-Colombian experimental artistic laboratory, Atelier Lapaetau.

"Mojana" is an associative re-imagining of a Colombian myth and traditional song. A mermaid-monster, who is desired and punished: the man-eating, seductive Mojana. Agressions against this free and rare spirit are justified by obsessive love and desire. The film denounces the naturalized violence against this mythical female creature and reappropiates her as a symbol of trans-feminine resilience. Kinematic bodies and animal-human hybrids. An absent body, which returns into representation. A history of dissident bodies who resist dying in a necropolitical system.

Simon(e) Jaikiriuma Paetau is a German-Colombian artist. Their artistic projects are located between film and performance, dealing with queer cultures and decoloniality. Simon(e) studied Media Art at the KHM Cologne and Film at the EICTV Cuba. Simon(e)’s films have premiered at Documenta14, Cannes Directors Fortnight, MoMA, Rotterdam and has been awarded the prize for Best Director at the International Cartagena Film Festival Colombia and won the first prize (MuVi Award) at kurzfilmtage Oberhausen, among others. Simon(e)’s performance works have premiered at Studio ? of Maxim Gorki Theater, Ballhaus Naunynstrasse, Hebbel am Ufer, as well as the 11th Berlin Biennale. Nadia Granados Using my body in combination with multi-media technologies, my artistic practice illuminates the relationships between the representation of state violence in mainstream media, institutionalized machismo, heterosexual pornography, and violence against women. My work is both performative and technological, both art and activism, and a mix of cabaret, public intervention, and video transmission. Five years ago I created La Fulminante, a character who invites her audience into the world of auto-representation and meta-pornography, using internet information strategies to condemn globalized society. La Fulminante dismantles the language used in the discourse of emancipation by bringing together in her body eroticism and social criticism. La Fulminante is a character inspired by sexually provocative stereotypes of Latin American women. She embodies erotic fantasies built by the mass media, using reggaeton and pornography. She uses her body as a tool to disseminate information, as an element of attraction to make visible alternative political strategies, a resistance against mass media and a struggle against imperialism. In 2015, I was awarded the 3rd Visual Arts Biennial Bogotá Prize Acquisition Award as well as a FONCA scholarship to create a political multimedia cabaret laboratory in Mexico. In 2013 I was selected for a Franklin Furnace Fund Award for the performance Your Car Is Clean, Your Conscience is Dirty, which I performed in New York City 2015. In 2013, I participated as an invited performer at the Hemispheric Institute’s annual meeting in Sao Paulo, and in 2012 I was invited to Canada for La Rencontre Internationale D’art Performance De Québec (RIAP), taking place throughout four cities in Canada. Additionally, my work has been presented in Canada?, Venezuela, Spain, Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, Germany, Ecuador, Argentina, Peru?, the United States, Mexico, Korea, Brazil, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Estonia, Italy, France, and Colombia.

"Mojana" is an associative re-imagining of a Colombian myth and traditional song. A mermaid-monster, who is desired and punished: the man-eating, seductive Mojana. Agressions against this free and rare spirit are justified by obsessive love and desire. The film denounces the naturalized violence against this mythical female creature and reappropiates her as a symbol of trans-feminine resilience. Kinematic bodies and animal-human hybrids. An absent body, which returns into representation. A history of dissident bodies who resist dying in a necropolitical system.

Nadia Granados Using my body in combination with multi-media technologies, my artistic practice illuminates the relationships between the representation of state violence in mainstream media, institutionalized machismo, heterosexual pornography, and violence against women. My work is both performative and technological, both art and activism, and a mix of cabaret, public intervention, and video transmission. Five years ago I created La Fulminante, a character who invites her audience into the world of auto-representation and meta-pornography, using internet information strategies to condemn globalized society. La Fulminante dismantles the language used in the discourse of emancipation by bringing together in her body eroticism and social criticism. La Fulminante is a character inspired by sexually provocative stereotypes of Latin American women. She embodies erotic fantasies built by the mass media, using reggaeton and pornography. She uses her body as a tool to disseminate information, as an element of attraction to make visible alternative political strategies, a resistance against mass media and a struggle against imperialism. In 2015, I was awarded the 3rd Visual Arts Biennial Bogotá Prize Acquisition Award as well as a FONCA scholarship to create a political multimedia cabaret laboratory in Mexico. In 2013 I was selected for a Franklin Furnace Fund Award for the performance Your Car Is Clean, Your Conscience is Dirty, which I performed in New York City 2015. In 2013, I participated as an invited performer at the Hemispheric Institute’s annual meeting in Sao Paulo, and in 2012 I was invited to Canada for La Rencontre Internationale D’art Performance De Québec (RIAP), taking place throughout four cities in Canada. Additionally, my work has been presented in Canada?, Venezuela, Spain, Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, Germany, Ecuador, Argentina, Peru?, the United States, Mexico, Korea, Brazil, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Estonia, Italy, France, and Colombia.

The time is out of joint. The ghost appears again in the dark of the night. “ The chain of memorial light is not absolutely broken, it is rather knotted in a different way ”

Made using an Afghanistan-based war simulator, Baden Pailthorpe?s Formation V explores the aesthetics and dynamics of military movement. In the work, two opposing forces of US soldiers and Taliban combatants follow invisible way-points side-by-side. Oblivious to each other?s presence thanks to a hacked game setting, the usual violence of this relationship is transformed into a poetic rhythm that repeats and amplifies the avatars? movement.

Argos is a Brussels based centre for art and media that was founded in 1989. Over the years the organisation has developed from a distributor of artists' video and film into a broader art centre incorporating functions such as exhibitions, screenings and events, production, conservation and preservation, publishing, and the development of a public media library. As an interdisciplinary centre for art and audiovisual media, the goal of Argos is to create a production, presentation, distribution, and preservation platform for contemporary Belgian and international audiovisual and visual arts, and more generally all forms of artistic expression moving on the crossing point with the audiovisual media. In a rapidly evolving social and cultural landscape, Argos wants to track characteristic developments in the audiovisual and visual arts, and the socially speaking visual and media culture as a whole, in a critical way providing a frame of reference and interpretation to the public.

"Flowers IV", a video work belonging to the "flowers" series (I-XVII), was made at the flower reloading point in Aalsmeer, Holland. It shows workers busy dyeing flowers and plants. White flowers, preferably carnations, asters, roses, tulips, and Baby's Breath, are manually plunged into coloured baths, then dried and packed up. Starting at four in the morning, workers, for the most part illegally, busy themselves with filling the colour wishes of a difficult clientele. This way, flowers the colour of which is in fashion are delivered more exactly and more rapidly, and can be more efficiently adapted to the changing seasons whereas cultivating them requires time. The video accompanies the dyers and offers a short glimpse of their daily lives in which the flowers' perfumes mix with the smell of the synthetic colours while in the background we hear a radio praising the merits of authenticity (original song from the dyeing workshop). The walls covered with traces of hard work display the struggles between the desire for frills and the economic and ethic abuses. Flowers, the symbol of natural beauty, turn into a metaphor of merchandise and waste. A video that evokes and mixes the most variant of levels. This handmade work, in this electro-digital world, where everything seems possible, and where with a single click we can modify a colour, gives us a peculiar impression and reminds us of times we thought were gone for long What's more, on another level the video presents an aesthetic history of paint and of the sensual joy born out of colours in continuity with Jackson Pollock's performance in "Action Painting", in the country of flowers. Fragile situations, the multiple various ways of seeing, and the realities are in this way made visible.

A path and someone walking. We observe several atmospheric phenomena such as: the thick haze of mist gradually reveals the way, various intensities of rain falling waved by wind gusts. We move between a haunting and strange serenity which is interrupted by sounds of creatures who live in this place. A way of looking that is used to link space and thought. We move at same time as the landscape with a movement of camera that slides between the natural rhythms of the forest.

Tomato Sauce Takeaway is a four minute short film, shot in Johannesburg, South Africa. The film documents the final evening routines of a few urban life forms in Johannesburg city. It does so in a way that is observational, introspective and personal given our own relations to space, routines and urban loneliness. The mundanity of these acts highlights an absurdity in the city life routines we take for granted. The people and the city itself become characters in a narrative of the last things we do before retreating to residential respite.

Terrace House is a Johannesburg based artist collaboration between Abi Meekel, Riley Pam-Grant and Claire Meekel that began in early 2017 with an immersive video and sound installation titled "The Blue Exhibition".

In January 2018, Terrace House exhibited "The Blue Exhibition" in a solo show at Gallery MOMO Cape Town. Their most recent video and sound installation titled "Monument" was also shown at Gallery MOMO Cape Town in July 2018 as part of the gallery's forth annual video exhibition, Transmissions, and again in Johannesburg where they were invited to show "Monument" in launching the 99 Juta design showrooms space situated in Braamfontein, which is the cultural melting pot of Johannesburg. The short film, Tomato Sauce Takeaway, was filmed in 2018 and has not been screened as of yet.

I deliver everything! raps the 'delivery-anti-heroine' and 'delivers' the sound of a rebellious exhaustion in a world increasingly defined by algorithms and AI where everything seems to become a commodity and we all breathless suppliers

Vanitas is a film animation with a very experimental character.It is an effort to make a contadiction between the style of the 2D, traditional (black and white) animation and a story, characterised by a very shocking and unusual for such kind of work concept. The explicit and detailed depiction of a very shocking action (as suicide is) with the use of cartoon, funny chatacters creates a very weird and hard final result that shocks the audience. Finally the project underlines the fact that the promising, posthumusly eternal life does not necessarily exist and the religious theories where support that concept are as fake as cartoons are.
