The Da
4mn35   color   stereo   2011   France
by Charlotte Bourrilly (CarlottA) (CarlottA)
Who are they? Towards where do they walk? Towards a sure death, in the heart of the nonsense. Hypnotic uneasiness, the sound of the knell or the sound of the little death? Without communication and without link but the one of existence, this people present the authority of their corporeality. In homage to Dada, " the Da ", anagram of " death ", is a strange and dreamlike universe, tinted with fear and with incomprehension, a mental universe where the spatiotemporal marks lose all their rationality.

Capitol Symmetry
8mn20   color   sil   2010   USA
by Neil Needleman
This video is about symmetry. First, the subject matter is symmetrical: the Capitol Plaza in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Second, I flipped the footage on itself, so the scenes in the frame are symmetrical. Third, the temporal structure of the video is symmetrical: the overlapping scenes progress to the midway point and then they flow in reverse to the beginning (now the end).

by Christophe Bruchansky
At the difference of the altitude of mountains that has been set once for all, there are no limits for skyscrapers and engineering. Higher standards in wealth and social status are being set, but without increasing the number of people who could see the uninterrupted horizon.

hatchet
1mn19   color   stereo   2010   USA
by Hilda Daniel
Decapitated segments are propelled in phonetic-anagrammatic sequence suggesting threat, violence (dv, rape), escape. Squealing trains, fighting flies, a "hatchet" refrain chugging like a train or train of thought stuck in a mind locked in madness or fear. The piece is a fright of fancy, a poem part rage, part fear.

Jump in the river
11mn   color   stereo   2010   Canada
by Karina Mariano
Film collage. People, thoughts and bad childhood memories. A sweet guy I left and a leopard print girl I loved. All this wrapped up in Montreal winter, local music and lo-fi video effects. I should have just moved to Mexico and sent her hate mail, but I made a movie about it instead...;)

Futurology
3mn02   color   stereo   2011   New Zealand
by Brit Bunkley
This video is a study of various "futuristic" edifices altered slightly in video software: a contemporary cargo ship, various airport terminals, the Auckland Sky Tower and the Seattle Space Needle. When I was young, most of us were convinced that the future would be far different than it turned out to be. We would either be living in George Jetson elevated homes (modelled in part on the 1962 Seattle Space needle)… or if we survived an expected nuclear war, we’d be living in a post-apocalyptic nuclear winter. Fortunately neither happened. http://vimeo.com/19404340
