Jasna Hribernik - Hiša nasprotij / House of Contrasts (00:20:17)
Production: TV Slovenija, 1998
Video documents a day in a house, where both the main Ljubljana food market and Christian seminary are based. Lively, ordinary conversations with the vendors blend with scenes from peaceful clerical life, which goes on undisturbed in the upper storeys of the same building. While the first, engaged with the earth and the material side of being, the second deal with spiritual and soulful aspect of life. Through the narrator the author questions about existence of life beyond matter.

Oliver Marčeta - Jazz bre (00:02:58)
Production:
Zeleni znak za izhod gosti fotografije manekenk, ki v množici ena za drugo postajajo številne in razosebljene. Video površina je plitva in spominja na kolaž. Žensko telo je potrošniška roba, ki zaradi obilja izgubi vrednost. Avtorjeva kritična misel je zreducirana na znak za izhod.

Mirko Simić - Do you hear the sound of silence (00:03:02)
Production: Bris & V.S. Video / Forum Ljubljana, 1992
A black and white video which builds on the details of the body under the shower. The images are not disturbed either by sounds or music because - as the title says - only the silence can be heard. That the eye of the video camera is always voyeuristic is best illustrated by the detail of the bath drain, a fetishistic and 'psychotic' object of the greatest voyeur among film directors - Hitchcock. (VD)

Neven Korda, Dario Seraval, Zemira Alajbegović - The Wild Bunch (00:02:56)
Subtitle: From the "So Young" compilation
Production: FV Video / ŠKD Forum, 1984
Video is a part of "So Young", a compilation of the Borghesia music video clips (So Young, The Wild Bunch, He, Too Much Tension, Cindy, A.R., ZMR), issued in 1985 as the first video cassette in Yugoslavia by the FV Label and successfully distributed via alternative channels. Videos are short, almost "film-like" stories focused primarily on the iconography of the body in urban surroundings. One of them presents a pioneer use of computer graphics.

Zvonko Čoh, Milan Erič - Cigar for a Prince (00:11:09)
Subtitle: Socializing The Bull? - first episode
Production: Emotionfilm, ŠKUC, TV Slovenija, 1995
Cigara za princa je prva epizoda animiranega filma Socializacija bika?, ki je bila uporabljena kot promocijski spot. Skozi prelivanje podob spremljamo nagajivo ljubezensko zgodbo. Karikaturi dveh ljudi (avtorjev?) bežita pred bikom, asociacije odvijanja zgodbe so podobne sanjam, detajli so v ospredju. Socializacija bika? je prva slovenska celovečerna risanka.

Andreja Džakušič, Simon Macuh, Iva Tratnik, SIVA - Motnje oblačenja – Prevelika obleka (00:04:04)
Production: Likovni salon Celje, 2011
S projektom obleka … človeka, ki je bil leta 2010 razstavljen v Likovnem salonu, je skupina dveh umetnic in umetnika raziskovala, v kolikšni meri obleka določa človekovo identiteto, koliko se s spremembo zunanje podobe spremeni odnos drugih.

Borut Savski - Bowlfuls of Sound (00:03:34)
Production: 2008
Two sperical bowls (from the Dancers series) have simple motorics and a bit more complex sensorics. They are susceptible to the sound they hear, but they also coproduce the sound (compressed microphony). This is why the bowls are full of sound. They can see each other (infrared sensor) and then they change direction. This should allow for the bowls to slowly zigzag closer to each other, which doesn’t really interests us anymore, but for the bowls this may be defined as a motive (with human it could be...

Ema Kugler - For the End of Time (02:05:28)
Production: Zank & VPK, 2009
The video film is an investigation on man and his smallness in front of nature and time, the story is told by a voice-over narrator, with no dialogues between the characters. The camera slowly moves horizontally in panoramic views showing bright wide desert landscapes crossed by traces of death, alternated with futuristic interiors. Computer generated imagery plays an important role in this last work as in the previous ones by Ema Kugler and contributes to the creation of recurrent enviroments which are a p...

Marko A. Kovačič - Back to the USA (00:04:37)
Production: 1984
Video je nastal v okviru razstave Back to the USA skupine R IRWIN S (katere član je bil takrat Kovačič) v Galeriji ŠKUC.

Poslikave prikazujejo jazzista s trobento in par, ki se ljubi v ležečem položaju. Statične poze in igranje na trobento spremlja jazz glasba, ki jo prekini občasni računalniški napi...

Marko A. Kovačič - American Dream (00:06:43)
Production: Brut film, 1986
An ambivalent deconstruction of fantasies about the promised land and faith in art, which is carried out through the stereotypical game of infinite hide-and-seek. It is a dialectic confrontation of the certain heroics of the regime that operated by prohibitions and its own detachment from the people, with the proclamation of a rapprochement with Western systems of liberal capitalism.

The artist conducted the performance on his 33rd birthday. Coated with white wax make-up he immovably lies in a sarcophague for an hour and a half, as long as Mozart's Coronation Mass lasts.

Subtitle: Demo Version
Production: 2004

Amir Muratović - From the Life of Books (00:03:55)
Production: Muratović, Amir, 2010/2011
The video consists of various scenes of browsing through books. The author focuses primarily on the movements of the readers' hands and their interaction with the book. The abstract image of the book pages is due to the delay in the montage. Since the noise of browsing is not in line with the motion, the act of reading gets additional dramaturgical tension.

Vesna Bukovec - It Will Be OK (00:03:34)
Production: V.B., 2009
A woman sitting on a white sofa is petting a stuffed toy and in a slow rhythm convincing it and iherself that "it will be ok". This mantric exhortation works like a parody of the power of suggestive thoughts promoted by popular new age movements. We can only see the woman's torso. The dominant white color indicates innocence. Video has no music accompaniment.

Vesna Bukovec - Personal Advice (00:00:59)
Production: V.B., 2010
Personal advice first seems like a secret being revealed by a soft voice, telling us to take its advice. This advice is a completely absurd series of words, which as we soon find out is taken out of astrological forecasts. Visual representation of the video is completely impersonal. The screen is divided into two levels of text also read by an android voice saying: »This is not the best time for an activity plan which calls for art diplomacy and caution as you tend to be extremely simple direct and po...

Vesna Bukovec - I can create positive change (00:02:30)

Video is a part of White Performances / Positive Affirmations, a series calling out the deceptiveness of the ostensible happiness and illusions about a perfect life. We see a woman cleaning and chanting a mantra, which is a parody pointing out the absurdity of work automatism especially with so called women chores like cleaning, putting on make-up or knitting.

Zoran Srdić Janežič - The Ballet Teacher (00:07:56)
Production: Zavod za sodobne umetnisti in kulture Gulag, 2010
The Balet Teacher prikazuje seanso baletnega pouka v lutkarski izvedbi. Atmosfera je zelo dramatična, mogoče nekoliko nenavadna za takšno klišejsko temo. A ravno to povzroča napetost skozi cel video. Slika je skoraj popolnoma črno-bela in estetika videa mogoče nekolio spominja na nemške filme iz dvajsetih let. Ura baleta se konča neuspešno. Brez besed, samo s telesnim dialogom, je avtorju uspelo ustvariti močan karakter pri profesorju baleta. Moška dominacija je v filmu zelo izražena in že v...
