Once We Get There
Film expérimental | hdv | couleur | 49:50 | Pays-Bas, USA | 2015
This film introduces an alienating yet familiar landscape of satellite images, tracks and sound. We follow the minute by minute movements and sounds of animals and machines, the chatting of people in Philadelphia. Although we constantly hear reality, we experience the movements within an abstract, two dimensional world of satellite photography. Without any crew present, the protagonists recorded their trajectories, sounds and private readings of the streets, allowing the filmmakers to access their experiences only afterwards. The film positions the audience as unwitting voyeurs. The meditative approach questions our contemporary techno-society, where social connectivity and eavesdropping coexist and balances between empathic co-traveling and voyeurism. The film resulted from a 7 month “Art in Public Space/Percent For Art” residency of Dutch visual artists Esther Polak and Ivar van Bekkum in Philadelphia.
Esther Polak and Ivar van Bekkum work together under the name PolakVanBekkum. Their work focusses on landscape and mobility. Routed in the history of the Dutch realistic landscape depiction, they engage with new technologies like GPS and data collection, to express individual experiences of spaces like the contemporary city and countryside. They search for changing ways to be in landscapes and how this influences the human understanding of space and the stories we tell to explain our lives. Besides the digital and technological innovative, they use very concrete means of visualisation, like drawings in sand or light, which makes their work very tangible and direct. Their projects are often informed by collaborations with participants, be it humans, objects, or even the rays of the sun. They have worked and exhibited internationally, at Transmediale Berlin, Ars Electronica Linz, ZKM Karlsruhe, London, IMAL Brussels, Rento Btattinga | Gallery Amsterdam, Museo for Image and Sound Sao Paolo, Nairobi, Lagos, Marrakech, Paris, Philadelphia and Los Angeles. In 2005 Esther Polak did receive a Golden Nica for interactive Art at Ars Electronica together with Ieva Auzina, for their MILKproject. Esther Polak is educated at the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam. Ivar van Bekkum is educated as journalist.

A Collision of Sorts
Doc. expérimental | hdv | couleur | 17:0 | Pays-Bas, USA | 2017
In A Collision of Sorts, inhabitants of the City of Philadelphia, (Pennsylvania, US) go there way, as discontinuous moving dots on a flat surface. The world in which this film plays is Google Earth: an alienating landscape of almost seamlessly stitched-together satellite images of the familiar planet we humans are moving around on. On Google Earth, nothing moves. Buildings, bridges and cars seem warped and flattened and compete for attention with the black weirdness of their own shadows. A virtual camera shows this frozen flattened landscape, reconnoitring the cityscape of the city. Meanwhile we hear sounds and voices. People and animals are down there, crossing the country. It is them who share a physical reality: we hear very intimately their breath, the rustling of clothes, traffic, their vehicles. They travel from one place to another giving the suggestion of a destination. They talk about encounters, visual, economic, political, social and personal but never the main characters seem to meet. Until a bad dream of one of them seems to come true.

Porvenir
Doc. expérimental | 4k | couleur | 12:10 | Croatie | 2020
Rêvant de terres meilleures, de génération en génération, à cause de la pauvreté, de la faim ou des guerres, nous voyageons sur les mers. La géographie est notre destinée. Nos corps conservent-ils la mémoire de nos grands-pères? Les souvenirs de fugue à la recherche de terres meilleures sont-ils inscrits dans nos corps? "Porvenir" signifie "avenir" en espagnol. Porvenir est aussi la seule ville de la Terre de Feu, au bout du monde, fondée par des immigrants venus de Croatie au début du XXe siècle.
Renata Poljak (née en 1974 à Split, Croatie) est artiste visuelle et cinéaste. Elle a été diplômée de la Arts Academy of the University of Split (Croatie) en 1997, et a obtenu un Master à l'École régionale des Beaux-arts de Nantes(France), département cinéma et vidéo, en 1999. Ses réalisations ont été présentées dans le cadre de nombreuses expositions individuelles et collectives, de biennales et de festivals de cinéma, d’envergure tant nationale qu’internationale. Elle a reçu de nombreuses bourses et récompenses, dont le prix T-HT en 2012 - l'un des plus importants prix d'art contemporain en Croatie. Elle a été artiste en résidence, notamment au San Francisco Art Institute (USA); au Museumquartier, Vienne (Autriche); à Art In General, New York (USA); à la Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris (France); aux Récollets, Paris (France). Ses films ont été projetés notamment au Prospectif cinéma du Centre Pompidou, Paris (France) [2010], et au Palais de Tokyo, Paris (France) [2012].

CHINA'S WILD WEST
Documentaire | 16mm | couleur | 10:50 | Pologne, Chine | 2008
Every winter the Yurungkash River in western China dries up, revealing an expanse of river-worn stones. There, hidden within the rock, lies a buried treasure forty times more valuable than gold?jade. Hundreds of people gather in the riverbeds, endlessly scrabbling at rock in search of a jewel they are unlikely to find. Still, the small glimmer of hope prevails over weary backs and frozen figures. As we watch the countless poverty-stricken men and women in unrequited pursuit, we are perhaps left to ponder our own failed quests for diamonds in the rough, as well as the extraordinary?and quixotic?measures we`ll resort to in pursuit of wealth.
A graduate of the National Film & Television School, Urszula is a Polish-born, London-based cinematographer/director and stills photographer. With a continuing career in feature film drama she is also currently developing a feature length documentary which tackles similar issues to ?China?s Wild West?, but this time across several continents.

On the 16-th of February 2005
Art vidéo | dv | couleur | 11:8 | Bulgarie | 2005
Le travail de vidéo "On the 16-th of February 2005" ressemble à une peinture basée sur le temps (documentaire) décrivant une femme assise à une table. Au premier regard, le regard semble complètement immobile. L?image éveille la curiosité et la contemplation plus que ce qui se passe vraiment, plus le temps avance. Par conséquent, le spectateur pourrait déceler que les objets changent de place, bien que leur processus de mouvement reste inaperçu. Á la fin, le temps bouge ?plus vite?, révélant un peu de ce qui l?entoure et de l?auteur en train d?enregistrer ce qui se passe devant ses yeux. La pellicule vidéo n?a pas été retouchée afin d?atteindre cet effet "immobile", tout est absolument véridique au lieu réel et au temps.
Je suis né et j?ai été élevé à Plovdiv, en Bulgarie. J?ai commencé ma formation aux beaux-arts à l?âge de douze ans avec des cours de peinture et de dessin. J?ai été diplômé du College of Theater and Fine Arts à Plovdiv, en Bulgarie en 1991. Plus tard, j?ai étudié à la National Academy of Fine Arts, à Sofia en Bulgarie où je me suis spécialisé en esthétique de la scène dans le cours du professeur Svetoslav Kokalov. Je me suis concentré principalement sur la dramaturgie classique comme Sophocle, Shakespeare et Tchekhov. J?ai été diplômé en 2001 du MFA Photo and Digital Imaging program du Maryland Institute College of Art, à Baltimore aux Etats-Unis. J?y ai suivi la classe du professeur William Larson et du théoriste des médias Timothy Druckrey. J?explore dans mon travail actuel les limites de la perception, tentant d?exprimer les différentes formes de présence du visible et de l?invisible. Depuis 2001, je vis à Chicago, dans l?Illinois.

Miró l?altre
Doc. expérimental | 16mm | noir et blanc | 12:0 | Espagne | 1969
As publicity for the exhibit Miró L`altre, organized by the Colegio de Arquitectos de Catalunya in 1969, the Board commissioned Pere Portabella to film Miró painting the "poster" for the exhibit on the ground floor windows of the building. Portabella was not interested in simply filming a testimonial documentary. However, he said he would do the film if after the exhibit Joan Miró himself, with the help of the cleaning staff erased his own painting. Joan Miró accepted the idea without a doubt. The complicity between the film maker and the painter is evident in the filming.

Miró, Aides l?Espagne
Documentaire | 16mm | noir et blanc | 8:0 | Espagne | 1969
The Colegio de Arquitectos de Catalunya commissioned Pere Portabella to make this film for the Joan Miró retrspective exhibit in 1969. There wew heated discussions on whether it would be rudent to screen the film during the exhibit. Portabella took the following stante: "either both films are screened or ther don`t screen any" and, finally, both Miro l`Altre and Aidez l`Espagne were shown. The film was made by combining newsreels and film material from the Spanish Civil War with prints by Miró from the series "Barcelona" (1939-1944). The film ends with the painter`s "pochoir" known as Aidez l`Espagne.

Play Back
Doc. expérimental | 16mm | noir et blanc | 8:0 | Espagne | 1970
Playback is presented as a short rehearsal in a double sense. It is a satellite of the constellation of works that Portabella dedicates to the analysis of the "materiality" of aesthetic and cultural languages (Vampir-Cuadecuc and Miró l`Altre among others can also be understood in this manner). At the same time, he analyzes the rehearsals that Carles Santos carries out for the playback recording of a film on the work of Antoni Gaudi. The choir of the Gran Teatro del Liceu of Barcelona reads fragments from Wagner`s Tannhauser, Lohengrin and the Valkyries. The film was shot in the theater "Lluïsos de Gràcia".

Tehran Trace
Art vidéo | dv | couleur | 7:25 | Royaume-Uni | 2005
Tehran Trace emprunte le même chemin en mouvement, le pas lent et silencieux, à travers quatre photographies figées: le vestibule de l'Hotel Laleh, le Mirror Hall of the Golestan Palace, un arche en pierre tourné vers le nord de la ville et un bazar avec vue sur des montagnes. Chaque "piste" commence en gros plan, s'éloigne en courbe de son sujet d'ouverture et finit avec l'image initiale cadrée intégralement.
Stuard Pound a reçu une formation en réalisation et en informatique,la vidéo numérique réunissant les deux activités. Il fait ses débuts dans la réalisation en 1970 comme membre de la London Film-makers Co-op et enseigne par la suite la réalisation à la Nottingham Trent University jusqu'en 1979. Son oeuvre a été présentée dans des festivals à Londres et ailleurs ainsi que via internet.

Schmutziges Licht (Lichtphon Art-Avant X)
Performance multimédia | hdv | couleur et n&b | 7:35 | Allemagne | 2018
Schmutziges Licht (Lichtphon Art-Avant X) An abstract, poetic visual-sound-drama The visual, tonal union and view of transcendent embodiment. A symbiosis of micro-coded, floating light-dust particles, interconnected in cracked soundscapes, layered sound cells, residual impulses and dissecting short-time cuts in noise structures. A self-born symbiotic being - alive through dissolution and constant change in time - Metamorphoses - Schmutziges Licht (Lichtphon Art-Avant X) is transformation in the beauty of decay and nonexistence. In the change of sight and hearing, reality and the levels of being resonate. Form and formlessness become inseparable. The unknown emerges, moves, penetrates into the observer, into us - becomes conscious and existent - Inner perception is infinite - Schmutziges Licht (Lichtphon Art-Avant X) is a multi-layered light-image-sound-vision. An artistic position and poetic exploration of the perception of artificial light and the unknown in the incarnate - of selfhood in an eternally lasting word in silence. On the technical side, the music consists of several hundred audio tracks with thousands of individual sounds. The visual level is based on a self-developed software particle system. There are hundreds of thousands coded pixel points, cross- linked lines and inner networked connections. Micro-audio clips, multi-level, time-independent organic soundscapes and digital visual light codes. Schmutziges Licht (Lichtphon Art-Avant X) is a complex visual sound correlation. Abstract, mysterious, filigree, powerful and subtle at the same time. A German-French co-production by the experimental artists Schahram Poursoudmand (DE) and Yoann Trellu (FR). Note: Schmutziges Licht (Lichtphon Art-Avant X) is created and produced to be played loud and projected in high quality. Please listen to it loud or via headphones. ...the night becomes the day - Light Overload - Schmutziges Licht (Dirty light) is artificial light. Excessive use of artificial light and its misuse (light pollution) on humans and the environment. Fatal consequences through the artificially constructed and manipulated lightening of the night by humans...
Schahram Poursoudmand Music & Sound Art, Composer, Visual Imagist, Poet Schahram Poursoudmand is a German composer, music & sound artist, visual imagist and poet. He creates extraordinary music, sound and visual art of a unique kind. In the avant-garde projects LICHTPHON, ONEVERYMOON, LICHTSCHREI, SHINE and ART-AVANT, he explores and realizes his artistic visions of music, sound, visual image and video art in existential poetry. The creative discovery of beauty through disintegration, dissolution, transformation, recreation and the representation of being and beyond in the transition from existence to non-existence is the essential approach and destination in his artistic passion. Music, sound, image and moving picture is stretched and condensed in form, time and space. Tonal and visual entities, sections and details, become disintegrated through dissolution in themselves and creates new structures, unknown realities and avant-garde elements by further deformation, in the beauty of decomposition. Existence, time, duality, deconstruction, humanism, transcendence, the infinite moment, the unknown, and recreation are some of the themes in his works. Schahram Poursoudmand creates unreal worlds of music, sound, visual art and poetry of strange beauty with unique aesthetics and expression. A surreal and bizarre mystery in music and visual art. „The fascination of renewal after the dissolution. The discovery and changing of time and time states. The artistic deconstruction, the diving into deep micro- and nanostructured soundworlds, as well as the representation of beauty in the creation of existence in nonexistence and new realities are the themes that stirs and fascinates me. Not the clearly audible and visible - but the secret behind the veil.“ * ...another world...an unknown place...an unknown time... * ::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::::::::::: Yoann Trellu French video artist and software developer based in Berlin. Starts working with live video projections in 1999, Nantes, France. Moves to Berlin in 2003 and starts working with choreographers, creating media environment for stage productions. Yoann Trellu works internationally on numerous stage productions as well as developing his own projects through collaborations with musicians and dancers. His work is mostly abstract and stems from his early photographic work, using the camera and digital tools to alter reality, to extend details and moments into their own world. He considers the computer as a collaborator, able to suggest and create artistic elements. Using controlled randomness and probability is an important aspect of his practice, giving rules, limitations and (unlimited) variations on which to build further.

Vidéo expérimentale | dv | couleur | 4:30 | France | 2006
La fenêtre de la video s`ouvre sur un personnage vêtu de rouge, errant dans une forêt, en quête d`un quelque chose dont le commencement serait antérieur à celui de la video. Aveugle de l`oeil qui le scrute, le personnage poursuit son activité sans relâche tel un Sisyphe d`une époque récente. L`épaisseur de la forêt s`insère entre une perception éloignée du personnage et une proximité enveloppante produit par la netteté des bruits de son déplacement (craquement de branches, respiration). La fenêtre balaye l`espace de la forêt autour du personnage qui se révèle être un point fixe dans la surface de projection. Cet espace, cette distance créée entre sa perception éloignée et sa présence sonore (et celle de l`outil de projection) laisse apparaître le flottement d`une image et de son auteur (celui qui filme) semblant plus être perdu dans son intention de filmer que le protagoniste assumant tel Sisyphe sa destinée. Déstructurer, disloquer chacun des éléments composant une illusion, serait une façon de replacer le spectateur dans sa position réelle.
Né en 1977 à Rennes, après des études dans le milieu artistique, Yvan pousset a poursuivi aux Beaux-Arts d'Angers en tant que sculpteur et s'exprime depuis 4 ans avec la vidéo. Tout son travail est larecherche d'une matérialité dans la vibration des pixels de ce médium.
