Masayuki Kawai - About a Theological Situation in the Society of Spectacle - 2001 - 6’30” - Japão
|
TV stars and Mikados are ubiquitous not as a symbol but analogy to be referred to. The image quoted from Society of Spectacle hallucinate us the ruin of itself, by using deliberate imitation of mass-media image.

“Das Kapital version.07 . Moral and economic division from the digital dissolution over the bla bla bla... The american images”17 minutos Cor Pal 2003
|
Command lines, programming lingo, coordinate instructions and video edit commands create a fatal illusion of mastery over the screen and it´s embedded database. The viewer/master in tune with the chaotic flow of capital and images is never confronted with the impact of this virtual flow on the real. It is not surprising that an extraordinary work as Das Kapital version.07 should originate from an artist who has lived much of his life in Argentina, where the result of the tough love of a post speculation market correction is clear to see – where chaotic global vectors, algorithms and variables produce an outcome in flesh and blood.”

|
"collaboration between Pascal Lièvre, Mihai Grecu and Emmanuel Delpy, this video is a symbolically multi-layered work: tattooed walls, epiderm as surface, female body drawn on male skin... Based on Lenin's speech and Lennon's song "Imagine", it is a visual poem on artistic ambiguity and false humanism.".

Larissa Sansour – Happy days – Palestina/ Dinamarca – 3:00 - 2006
|
Happy Days is a video that exposes everyday Palestinian life under Israeli
occupation. In the video, a collage of footage shot on location in the
occupied territories is accompanied by the theme music from the seventies
sitcom “Happy Days”. The piece provides imagery different from that of news
footage. The contrasting music underlines the general public’s apathy when
confronted with world conflict. The idea is to subjugate international
politics to a format normally associated with entertainment and thereby call
attention to the blurry boundary between the two.

Kentaro Taki exchangeable cities 5 min 2001 – Japão
|
The globalization and huge infrastructure resulted into equalization of the world. Those present us information and urban space that are homogenized with the same quality. To represent the fake city many elements of the world are assembled into the piece. The spectacularization of the city has the same meaning as overflow of images.
