This piece is about placing two major recording artists on the same stage together after they have been dead for some time. Since Hank Snow and Hank Williams never performed together during their lifetimes this was a way to bring them together with their two songs, ‘Rambling Man’ and ‘I’ve Been Everywhere.’ The thereminist, Scott Marshall, takes the two songs to another place. Footage of the audience, which was built into the construction of the work, constitutes a component of the video.

"And so the intoxicated camera operator shoots the moon slipping through the barren trees. The rabbit hole's light shadow appears and he obliges, head first, no looking back. His cranium (like yours) is packed with illusions, but down the rabbit hole they treasure the same just so long as they're custom fabricated, hand tooled and conscious. Down this hole, stalking the unforeseen non-translatable is all. Join in here." (FW)

A day by day diary of Raphaël Bassan's Lucy en miroir. Dominik Lange followed the shooting of Lucy en miroir for a year. He restructures the material of the film itself and confers to Promenades champêtres an astonishing poetic vision. The shots are often slow and hypnotic. The mystery of this new film does not take its roots in a cinematographic or a literary tradition like in Raphaël Bassan's film, but in life itself. Every day life is magnified by Dominik Lange's camera-eye which restructures the sequences and gives his film a different, yet complementary vision, of Lucy en miroir.

Portrait of the body and its contact with objects

This video appears to be a humorous stylistic reference to spy films. All the clichés – tension, eroticism, grave, cigarette-smoking men and atmospheric music – are present. The woman wears fishnet hose and a fur coat with her military uniform. This ambiguity of seduction and deceit is not only the earmark of espionage, but possibly also a metaphor for the present ambivalent situation in China.

One of the most successful forms of trafficking in Europe is cigarette smuggling. From Switzerland, cigarette packs are sent to Eastern countries, in particular Montenegro, before being illegally reintroduced throughout Europe via Italy. In Montenegro, the traffic has grown to such an extent that the authorities let it go, overwhelmed or accomplices. It is the Italian mafia which organizes the traffic towards Puglia. From there, they flood all countries, as far as Great Britain. What is most worrying is that this traffic hides more dangerous activities, such as arms and drug trafficking.

« Made for the Musee d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris exposition VOILA (Summer 2000), from ‘found’ footage taken from hundreds of unfinished films stored in Anthology's basement. A tour-de-force montage film with the spirit of Vigo and Buñuel hovering over it. Made before Godard's Origins of the 21st Century, Ziz's film provokes interesting comparisons. Both deal with images of the 20th century. But while Godard's film could be described as a poster, Ziz's film is a poem. I don't have to tell you which one I prefer...- » (Jonas Mekas)

The Wichí inhabit a wide geographic region, but their settlements are primarily located in the provinces of Formosa and Chaco, and in the eastern part of Salta. Formerly, they were hunter-gatherers who lived in small bands, with a strong tendency toward isolation from other bands.

These ten films encapsulate the best of De Keersmaeker and De Mey's collaboration: twenty years of assiduously practicing variation, of perpetually inventing algorithms, filters, and formulae that twist movement and space according to the capricious mathematics of pleasure. All of this is filmed - O Belgitude! - in exquisite flower-filled gardens and under impressionistic drizzling rain.
