by Shwan Dler Qaradaki (Norway/Iraq)

My work relates to the problematics of exile in Europe, and particularly in Norway. I'm interested in the direction the politics of immigration is taking in Norway, and what consequences this has for immigrants' self-image and identity.

requien_granular   Requien Granular
by Tomaz Klotzel (Brazil)
DV, 6'50'', 2008
An audiovisual composition inspired by the musical theory of the granular synthesis, which is based on the organization of music in small sound pieces, called grains. The footage used to create the Requien Granular grains are old sport film from the last century, mainly football from the 50's to the 80's. Requien Granular talks about life and it's passing, time long ago, actors - heroes? - already dead or incapable of the shown performances, empty of that virility. It's a reflexion about every present moment of the life, and of being present at every moment.

in the mix   In the mix
by Jan Machacek (Austria)
Beta, 4', 2008
The camera, mounted on a blender, films Machacek’s performance as he moves slowly from the background to the picture’s center for the purpose of interfering with the video image’s mechanical progression with his own body. While standing in the center of the frame he reacts to the camera’s movement, occasionally allowing it to lift him into the air, then hops wildly and gesticulates to counteract its dynamism.
     
CHEVAL BLÊME   Cheval Blême

On 17 July 1939 a man was guillotined in public in front of a camera. The eyes of a horse will never know anything of it.

NaturKultur   Natur Kultur
by Geir Esben Østbye (Norway)
HDV, 8'40'', 2009
Nature Culture - is about ourselves in the floating - often blurred - transition between Nature and Culture. It´s often hard to distinguish what is nature and what is culture. Maybe they sometimes change positions. Could nature mimic culture - instead of the other way around? In our heads and thoughts we might perceive ourselves as in an everchanging position between the two, but our corporeal memory might tell us another story.
