Ana Čigon - One More Kick (0:04:35)
Production: Ana Čigon, 2009
'One More Kick' is a performative video in which the author is tackling a wall, trying to move it with great effort. She tries really hard and seemingly pushes it around the frame, using the method of measuring the edges of the screen, used by the early video artists questioning mass media and television which captures reality. With the help of technical means and performative action the author plays with the perception of space and reality. Video caries ironic message slowly uncovered in the text...

Maja Smrekar - Repeating Coincidence (00:03:42)
Production: Smrekar, Maja, 2009
The main character in the video is a dance performer situated in media environment with splashing saturated colours, like a woman enclosed by the media wall. The speed and braking of the image represents the dancer’s nervous movements in the space that create an emotional tension. The sound composed by Borut Savski intensifies the fragmented and nervous motions and determines visual coordinates. The entire sound and visual imagery is saturated, repetitive and fragmented, composed by numerous cut frames. Th...

Maja Smrekar - Imaginarij elektromagnetnih transformacij (0:28:39)
Production: Smrekar, Maja, 2009
Experimental video and sound work with multi-layered structure is made with various technological means from the perspective of investigative and formal video and sound approaches that the artist finds in the crossroad of analogue and digital manipulations of images. She uses numerous means for manipulation and processing of picture such as layering, fast switching between the shots and distortion that together make complex abstract effects. The motives are changing with speed, and they are notably connecte...

Borut Savski - Overstrained Structures (00:01:19)
Production: KUD Trivia in Galerija Kapelica, 2009
With movable mechanical organisms the artist follows his research of autonomous structures / systems. The installation is constructed with elements that are connected but overstrained. The movable mechanical part of the installation carries this (over)strained elements and the result is an almost organic / lively movement of the construction. The electronic mechanisms constructed by the artist are usually analogue and built according to the principles of BEAM robotics (Biology, Electronics, Aesthetics, Mech...

Luka Dekleva, Elena Fajt - The Memory (00:02:01)
Production: E. F., L. D., 2009
The photo animation was designed by Elena Fajt (installation), Luka Dekleva (photo), Luka Prinčič (sound) at the time of the II. Biennial of Sloevene Independent Illustration in 2009. Fajt set up ice cubes in three open-air locations containing the frozen ink that gradually changed the image. Time-based installations and abstract illustration were the result of the author's reflection on developing a specific method for graphic printing. The colour was frozen in an ice cube, under which the textile w...
