Jasna Hribernik, Zmago Lenardič - Elsa und Lohengrin (0:03:15)
Production: VPK, 1997
A variation on Wagner and his opera Lohengrin. There is no Wagnerian hero, but a ballerina dancing to the opera, which later transforms into a modern song, and the ballerina also turns into a modern dancer. Both dancers, however, resemble a woman covered with roses and lying under transparent plastic - Snow White, or Laura Palmer? (source: Videodokument)

Jasna Hribernik - Carte Postale (06:32)
Production: TV Slovenija, 1997
By layering of pictures the artist succeded in simultaneously presenting the past and the present. Destruction of a house represents the present, and fragments from letters written by people who used to live in the house represent the past. An off-screen voice reads the letters, but the sounds soon become unintelligible - for who gives us the right to rummage through the intimacies of these anonymous people? Anonymous they shall remain. For a moment we even see their faces in photographs, but these photogra...

Marko A. Kovačič - Naprej v preteklost / Forth Into the Past (0:09:30)
Production: Forum Ljubljana, VPK, 1995
The video deals with our understanding of the distant future, presented through a concrete example of the 23rd century archaeology. A narration of a professor archaeologist leads us through the story as he guides his student through one of the main archaeological sites in the City of Catastropolis, where so-called Plastoses, who (will) survived the atomic catastrophe live. These half-organic half-mechanical creatures form a comprehensive civilisation of Plastos, which is the author's subject in a series of...

Subtitle: (Zoological Retrospective)
Production: 2000
The video summarises the basic motifs of the artist’s work: endangered species and fantasy animals of the future. It comprises an omnibus of five individual video pieces and additional raw video footage. First, we see ‘proteus’, a computer-generated olm in motion; which is followed by ‘An Interview with an Endangered Species’, featuring frontal shots of the Soča Trout opening its mouth as if it were speaking; these are combined with an Aquarium video showing the flight of the Soč...

Jurij Korenc - Svetloba sence (0:27:20)
Subtitle: predstava Svetloba giba, svetloba sence
Production: Cankarjev dom, Viba film, Studio 37, 1987
The video shows the process of making a sculpture; static shots accompanied by dramatic ambient music show frozen and moving images of sculpting material – clay. The sculptress’s hands begin to knead the material and shape it into a figurine. Hand movements are slow and quite elegant; the scenes change into an abstract, clouded image of dancing figurines which are becoming increasingly clearer. The end result of the process is a standing female nude.

Neven Korda, Zemira Alajbegović - The Sand Collectors (00:12:34)
Production: V.S. Video / Forum Ljubljana & TV Slovenija, 1995
Video work tells a story of an art collector as remembered by herself in her old age, and as narrated by her friend, a psychoanalyst. Thru this narrative the authors deal with the spirit of avant-garde art in the first half of the 20th century. By layering black and white and colour images and sounds the work creates a deep and lively emotional space. (Source: Videodokument)

Andrej Lupinc - V 8. minutah okoli sveta / In 8 Minutes around the World (00:09:38)
Production: TV Slovenija, filmski laboratorij, 1990-2000
The documentary video patchwork with shots from various places in the world that the author visited while working as a cameraman at Slovenian national TV station in the span of ten years. Diversity of aesthetics is visible through a compilation of shots from different continents. A stable rhythm that runs through the whole video unifies all different scenes and brakes the seeming symbolic differences.

Damijan Kracina - Točka nič / Point Zero (00:02:07)
Production: 1996
The video consists of three parallel strips showing the same footage in different time frames. It seems that we are following a video of the countryside shot from a moving car. The upper and lower strips follow the same timeline, while the strip in the centre is of the same footage, but on rewind. In the central strip, the video slows down. Both timelines meet, which is indicated by a red line, which merges and draw the point zero.

Damijan Kracina - Kurca / Little Hen (00:02:55)
Production: 1996
The work was made in the studio of the sculpture department at the Academy of Fine Arts. A hen appears in the studio and waddles across the room.

Nataša Prosenc Stearns - Disk / Disc (00:02:57)
Production: TV Slovenija, 1995
This video in black-and-white presents people participating in mass rituals, primarily wars and the glorification of leaders, which are constant and universal documents of the world. The global and temporal association of these images is emphasised by the graphic sign of a disc, the only colourful object on the screen, which emerges into our view and disappears from it, until finally it is destroyed by a lizard, another - and the last - colourful creature in the records of the world. Every artist's cre...

Nataša Prosenc Stearns - Meja / Border (0:04:32)
Production: Center RTV Maribor, TV Slovenija, 1997
The video focuses on the concept of skin, which is the borderline between the body and its surroundings. The picture consciously rejects all sophisticated visual manipulation and instead uses basic visual effects: the play of light and shadow, and colour changes. The varying rhythm of the editing changes the vibration of skin - the image animates its life.

Nataša Prosenc Stearns - Dvojnik / A Double (0:03:25)
Production: TV Slovenija, 1995
The idea of time connects with the image inherent in video, the encrustation of the picture, which allows for the free exchange of images from different worlds and periods. The double silhouette of a person delineates two time segments: the passing of daily life, and nocturnal fireworks. Both worlds pass from one shape to another, until they finally freeze into what they actually represent: a human statue.

Nataša Prosenc Stearns - Vertikalni horizont / Vertical Horizon (0:03:20)
Production: TV Slovenija, 1994
The video film replicates the labyrinth presented in the installation of the same title. Bricks are placed on the floor, and they pass into the labyrinth on the screen. The figures never come from 'behind the walls' of the labyrinth, we can only hear the sound of their fleeting steps.

Nataša Prosenc Stearns - One Way (00:05:31)
Production: TV Slovenija, 1995
A man and a woman aim to fulfil their desire for power, beauty, supremacy and other similar human attributes. The male and the female are represented through archetypal images: a strong man's body fighting against the crude force of nature, and a woman's body and its clothing reflected in a mirror. The video image presents these archetypes in duplicate, in slow-motion and replication, and thus it assembles the collective visual memory of human inclinations.

Media Teror, Rok Sieberer Kuri - Media Teror Chroma Quart Mix (mix II.) (00:03:39)
Production: Media Teror, 1998
Fast changing images of a city, TV recordings, nature and objects inside nature, which are completed with art forms by different editing techniques. Dynamic hand held camera shots are processed with overlaps and chroma key effect. The content is hidden in the gaps: in the symbolic forms and association leaps in the selection of the shots, atmospheres and surroundings. Synchronous image and sound make the work resemble a music video.

Media Teror, Rok Sieberer Kuri - Media Teror Croma Quart Mix (mix III.) (00:06:44)

Hitro menjujoče podobe mesta, televizijskih posnetkov, narave in objektov v naravi, ki jih z različnimi montažnimi tehnikami dopolnjujejo likovne forme.
