Psychosen verstehen

In psychosis seminars, despair, exuberance, fear, suffering and excessive demands, but also courage and the power to cope, have their say. Psychosis seminars promote security and confidence to face the distress caused by psychosis without fear. Psychosis seminars are not a science, nor are they a form of psychotherapy, but they do impart knowledge and experience. Psychosis seminars explore the scope for contradictory truths and create sensitivity for the inner realities of the seminar participants. People experiencing psychosis, families and professionals are confronted with themselves, their helplessness and their strengths, psychiatric professionals in particular with the kindness of their help lines. Relatives and professionals are only familiar with psychosis from the perspective of others and are able to deal with the self-perspective of people with psychosis.

Eye / Machine II

In Eye/Machine II, Farocki has brought together visual material from both military and civilian sectors, showing machines operating intelligently and what it is they see when working on the basis of image processing programs. The traditional man-machine distinction becomes reduced to "eye/machine"" where cameras are implanted into the machines as eyes. As a result of the Gulf War, the technology of warfare came to provide an innovative impulse, which boosted the development of civilian production. Farocki shows us computer simulated images looking like something out of science-fiction films: rockets steer towards islands set in a shining sea; apartment blocks are blown up; fighter aircraft fire at one another with rockets and defend themselves with virtual flares.

The Basic income, a cultural impulse

"An income is like the wind beneath your wings" it says at the start of the film. Should this be an unconditional right for everyone? Is this at all possible - a financial human right? The film is exiting, moving, motivating and focuses on a precise rational point of view. It places the relationship and the main task of money under a new light. As a theme it is of the utmost relevance to our time. The video was used as a basis for discussion in numerous groups during the time the Swiss petition for a Basic Income to be included in the Constitution was under way.
