The Interpreter contains a vague narrative that follows the structure of original tarot card, Major Arcana, such as The fool’s journey throughout the rest of 21 scenes to acquire enlightenment towards the end. Okaku created her original Derbyshire tarot card during a residency in Derby, England (2015). Each card draws on the artist’s own insight of Derbyshire’s history and myths - spanning a myriad of symbolic imagery. The animation is revealing an intimate interpretation of stories between each card. As this work is titled ‘”The Interpreter”, it contains many metaphor expressions in order to query audience what is their own interpretation. It is similar to how people play with tarot card. It has the multitude of possible interpretations. Messages can be revealed depending on which combination of the cards they pick - the translation of the cards are distinct as to who is reading, where they are reading, when they are reading and what intention is being transmitted in the moment of the reading.

Noriko Okaku was educated at Chelsea College of Art and Design and the Royal College of Art, completing an MA (RCA) in Animation. She is a collage artist who borrows, adopts, copies and recycles existing images to explore the diverse avenues of perception.

L'artiste a filmé des gens sur la route à New York portant des t-shirts avec des nombres, et les a rassemblés de façon à créer un décompte de 99 à 0. Il s'agit de révéler ou de reconstruire un ordre caché derrière le chaos de la ville.

Erwin Olaf Born in Hilversum in the Netherlands in 1959, Erwin Olaf lives and works in Amsterdam since the early 80`s. His current studio is situated in a former church hall. Mixing photojournalism with studio photography, Olaf emerged in the international art scene in 1988 when his series `Chessmen` was awarded the first prize in the Young European Photographer competition. This award was followed by an exhibition at the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, Germany. Since then Olaf has continued to explore issues of gender, sensuality, humor, despair and grace in each successive series. Printing his early work in documentary style black-and-white, he first gradually introduced color and then digital manipulation. There is great contrast between each series. Mature (1999): golden-hued portraits of elderly women in the poses of kittenish supermodels; Fashion Victims (2000): a lewd commentary on the consumerism of sex and designer labels; Royal Blood (2000): minimalist white-on-white portraits, depicting the vengeful nature of members of the aristocracy who have suffered unsavory deaths; Paradise (2001): picturing a dark and baroque underworld of gleeful clowning and lunacy; Separation (2003) portraying an ice cold and introverted family in a sterile living room. In his four most recent series Rain, Hope, Grief and Fall, Erwin Olaf returns to classic imagery with minimal computer retouching. Video and film offer new possibilities to explore. His first film Tadzio (1991, co-directed with painter F. Franciscus) was soon followed by comic videos for children`s television, short documentaries, music clips and commissions by the Dutch National Ballet. Recently Olaf has created autonomous video works like Separation, Rain and Grief, starring models who also appear in the accompanying photo series. In the films they play a different character, as though his moving images provide a parallel history to his color photographs. These short films have been selected for film festivals all over the world. Over the years many of Olaf`s works - from his unabashed nude portraiture and intense symbolism to the unflinching gaze in his blood-drenched images of staged violence - have provoked controversy. Not surprisingly, this ability to attract attention has seen his work embraced by the advertising world, resulting in commercials for Lavazza, BMW, Microsoft and Nintendo among many others. Lately Erwin is frequently shooting in commission for magazines such as The New York Times Magazine, The Sunday Times Magazine, Elle and Citizen K. In 1999 his worldwide campaign for Diesel Jeans won him the coveted Silver Lion at the Festival for Advertising in Cannes. He was awarded the same prize two years later for his imagery produced for Heineken. Among numerous other international art and media prizes, in 2006 he was awarded Photographer of the Year in the International Color Awards. In 2007 Kunstbeeld magazine chose him Artist of the Year of the Netherlands. Recently he received a Lucie Award for his entire oeuvre

Grief NL, 2007, 3`59? Semblables à du tonnerre, des bruits accompagne l'image d'une femme qui, renfermée sur elle-même, fixe par la fenêtre. Une voix radiophonique, partiellement intelligible, fait un rapport sur certain évènements, et une autre femme entre dans la pièce en hésitant. Aucune des deux femmes ne dit un mot; le silence persiste entre les deux. La pluie, la radio, la tension du visiteur, se maintiennent en haleine. Les coups de tonnerre interagissant avec la radio prennent tout à coup une sonorité menaçante et le public commence à suspecter une connection entre l'orage, les vagues messages se glissant dans la pièce et l'état de santé mentale de la femme qui attend qui reste physiquement inapprochable pour l'autre. Elle continue de tourner son dos à l'autre; elle cache ses larmes silencieuses. En une seule scène et avec des moyens minimes, "Grief" conjures une histoire entière de développement miséreux.

Erwin Olaf was born in 1959 in Hilversum, The Netherlands. Olaf has a passionate love affair with life, and enjoys to the full everything it has to offer. His oeuvre is a manifestation of his passion and of his genuine engagement with his subjects. Olaf has been professionally active for twenty-five years and in this period he has succeeded in evolving from a participating photographer to a director who creates his own reality. Olaf's pictures are filled with humor, imagination and exuberance, but they go much further than simple visual intrigue. His works deal with freedom, beauty, loneliness, and being different. He convinces his public in a shameless and versatile manner, questioning established norms. Olaf consistently expresses his own standpoints, fulminating against narrow-mindedness, smugness, and rigid norms, but not without humor, bravura and bite. An authentic Olaf is a blow to the head, ruthlessly direct, but simultaneously wrong footing the viewer and poking fun. One reviewer remarked that in Erwin Olaf's photographs everyone stares unwaveringly into the lens--thus looking straight into the photographer's big blue eyes, as it were. Olaf approaches the world openly and enthusiastically and this is also the way in which, in his work, he dares to enter the public debate. Olaf is a master in generating his own world, whether this be in autonomous photographic series or film projects. He is also hypercritical, nothing escapes him, so that pictures are created with a placement composed so meticulously that it is almost painful to examine. With these, Olaf manages to produce fictitious yet convincing images of bygone days, fairytales and dreams, populated by historical figures, elves, dwarves, lunatics, and god knows who.

Due to long-term observation of the NPCs (Non-Playable Characters) in the classic GTA: San Andreas (2004) video game the player witnesses certain documentary events that take place in different parts of the in-game world. To some extent, the constant movement which accompanies the player-observer throughout the in-game space is the only salvation from quotidian violence on the streets but not always.

Kltr@ is an emotive journey in search of alternate kinship approaches between people and street dogs. Through a series of interviews with artists, cultural institutions, and their companion species, as well as primary footage of dogs who live beyond the borders of domestic life in Santiago de Chile, we explore the co-evolutionary relationships between kiltr@s and ?humans?, looking for clues about how they help each other to survive. In its everyday use Kiltro is a term that codifies species and racial hybridity and that translates as mutt, mongrel, or mixed breed. Kiltro is also the most common term used to classify the roughly half a million ?homeless? or street dogs found across Chile. In this project we hope to resuscitate Kiltr@ as a decolonization term, that resists against colonial and modern notions of purity across nature, culture, race, ethnicity, class, gender and sexuality, and that reminds us of our co-constituted and co-evolutionary subjectivities. For the past decade, feminists, anarchists, and artists have been primary agents in rescuing kiltr@s and resisting against the militarized extermination policies that threaten their survival; here we follow a few of them.

Lissette Olivares and Cheto Castellano are the co-founders of Sin Kabeza Productions, a collective of activist researchers that work as a symbiotic team. Their name translates as ?without a head? and reflects the collaborative and non-individual aspect of their collective production. The work they do consists of transmedia storytelling, where they create hybrid cultures that illustrate their concerns. Told from a post-colonial, feminist and ecological perspective, these stories work as models for envisioning a world where political and cultural hierarchy, as well as rationality, are abandoned in favor of a new, creative capacity to respond to the complex environmental and cultural challenges facing our contemporary world.

Dans cette animation des scènes d?horreur et des scènes de thriller typiques se succèdent : un corbeau, un téléphone qui sonne sans cesse, des escaliers qui craquent, une ombre passe en glissant, un rideau qui flotte dans le vent et des gens qui marchent dans la rue tels des zombies. Tous ces éléments semblent se retrouver dans une fin surréaliste. Une ombre bouge derrière la fenêtre d?une maison qui flotte. Est-ce que ce que nous avons vu plus tôt pouvait être la visualisation de ses pensées ? Ceci n?est probablement qu?une des diverses histoires possibles. Chaque spectateur peut construire une histoire différente grâce aux éléments disponibles.

L'animation 'Comfort' nous éclaire sur la manière de travailler de Jacco Olivier. L'histoire qu'il a en tête au départ, peut évoluer en fonction des idées qui peuvent se dégager pendant le processus de création. De cette façon, une animation peut éventuellement se construire à partir de diférentes histoires. Les différentes intrigues sont reliées grâce à des images qui se font écho : de la queue rouge d'un Boeing à l'arrêt, au logo rouge de Vodafone, et de là à un téléphone qui sonne. l'animation semble également s'auto-examiner lorsque la caméra plonge en profondeur et retires les couches successive d'un tableau une par une, pour ensuite ressortir par la couche supérieure. On reprend le fil de l'histoire sans effort. Contrairement à ce que le titre suggère, ce qui prédomine dans ce travail est une atmosphère de peur et d'oppression.

Le film fut filmé en utilisant une camera digitale a haute vitesse depuis un métro arrivant dans une gare très fréquentée. Le résultat est un plan sans fin des personnes sur un quai passant au ralenti. Le mouvement tranquille de la caméra et le calme des gens dépeints donne de la place pour une chaîne de pensées et d'associations hypnotiques. Le quai semble avoir été transformé en scène sur laquelle les gestes quotidiens et simples des gens se changent en performance.

In downtown Tokyo, the author encounters a variety of events. The Tokyo Skytree has brought big changes to this urban landscape, which is now packed with condominiums. Its inner workings remain, built on racial and economic divisions and a history of many people’s hardships. It was learned that the 1911-1930 construction of the Arakawa spillways saw the river enormously expanded by human hands, particularly Korean and Chinese immigrant workers. Many Koreans were then murdered as false rumors spread in the immediate aftermath of the Great Kant? Earthquake of September 1, 1923. For this work, Olta created a script that interwove recreations of interactions experienced in the area with stories and records from literary figures, folklorists, and film directors, including Nagai Kaf?, Shaku Ch?k?, Takehisa Yumeji, and Ozu Yasujir?. The set references the sketches collected by Kon Wajiro of temporary barrack structures built in the wake of the Great Kant? Earthquake, as well as the stage design by Murayama Tomoyoshi for a production of Georg Kaiser’s “From Morning to Midnight”. “From Morning to Midnight” was staged at Japan’s first dedicated theater for “Western-style” shingeki plays, Tsukiji Sh?gekij?, which was built in 1924, the year after the earthquake.

Arianne Olthaar (1970, Netherlands) is making experimental films, photographs and miniature models. Her work has a strong focus on the once-luxurious interiors of public spaces that were built in the 1970s and 80s, such as primate enclosures, dining cars, hotel nightclubs, discotheques, a school interior. Interiors that once represented an explicit modern luxury but nowadays have an aura of faded glory and are increasingly disappearing by renovation or demolishment.
