Ana Čigon - Ana at the Station (00:05:30)
Subtitle: Dokument eksperimentalne raziskave spletnega in fizičnega arhiva Postaja DIVA in performansa
Production: 2016
The video is a document of experimental research of the online video archive DIVA Station. In the project, the artist sought the place of her artistic practice and intertwined her creation with the work of other (women) artists in a performative way, thus contextualizing her works through an eclectic merging of written, spoken and performative quotations from both her own work and from works of other artists. The purpose of the research was to establish a critical attitude towards her own creation through t...

Neža Jurman - Morph (00:02:04)
Production: Nez Pez, 2016
Video je nastal za potrebe pri razstavi 'Morfoze', ki je bila izvedena julija 2016. Poimenovanje instalacije na razstavi izhaja iz angleške različice grške besede morph (glasovna predstavitev morfema, najmanjšega dela besede kot nosilca pomena). Kot inspiracijo sem jemala obdelovanje posameznih elementov animacije kot zlogovanje do končnega produkta videa, ki pa nima vnaprej določenega rezultata. Tako nastane eklektičen ambient, ki bazira na grajenju in razslojevanju. Vsaka ilustracija je r...

Miha Vipotnik - Lumino auro (23:39)
Production: Uho;Oko Institute for Art and Technology & M. V., 2011
The video constantly changes its format, which makes it rather complex. Variations of the surface are subtle, often barely noticeable and therefore make the viewer feel uncomfortable. Lumino Auro is a video which causes spatial anxiety on different levels. The first level of discomfort is an empty badly lit room. The happening on TV screen is the only movement in a static shot of claustrophobic space. The second level of discomfort is caused by a collage of exceptional shots, rhythmically overflowing the st...

Miha Vipotnik - Laughter (03:16)
Production: Miha Vipotnik, 2015
The video is divided into two vertical levels. The one above shows the scenes of military territories and interventions of the USA in Irak and Middle East. We see oil marks and empty cities in bird's perspective. A smiley face is added to all the shots as sort of a leitmotif of the video. The level below shows satellite shots of Las Vegas which is at the same time a metaphor of getting rich and of short term and evasive happiness, and it evokes a victorious laughter. The latter vanishes in figural compositi...

Miha Vipotnik - Time of Aliquot Parts (12:00)
Production: Slovenski etnografski muzej, 2013

Video Words is a word prologue to the film Time of Aliquot Parts It is a kind of epigraph and articulation,...

Miha Vipotnik - Man of Hearken (19:17)
Production: RTV Slovenija, 2008
Experimental video and video-audio composition is a portrait of a composer Bor Turel, one of the most noticed Slovene composers of experimental and electroacoustic music. The author deals with sound in connection and comparison with image through the work of the composer. He explores it and searches for its meaning. The musical score becomes part of the visualization, where the texts displayed on the screen animate the visual sensations of various shapes and letter systems. They are constantly producing and...

Vesna Bukovec - You can do it! (00:02:46)
Production: Vesna Bukovec, 2010
The video consists of scrolling text and static image in the background. The text is compiled from various advertising slogans of famous international brands. Combined into a body of text these singular statements form new meanings with almost poetic connotations. It all sounds very nice and familiar. But the fusion of a beautiful scenic landscape slowly fading in and out in the background with the ominous soundtrack creates a strong contradiction and puts the kind harmonious text into perspective. The vide...

Vesna Bukovec - When I wake up, I am going to create something beautiful (00:04:00)
Production: Vesna Bukovec, 2011
The video poetically explores creative self-censorship and the issues encountered when searching for new ideas. Flickering night shots of blossoming plants in the forest symbolise flashing and passing of thoughts, concepts and images that arise the moment before we fall asleep. (Source: Vesna Bukovec)

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - 900 m3 Sand (00:10:21)
Production: Universitätskulturzentrum UNIKUM, Klagenfurt in cooperation with section.a, Vienna, 2014
'900 m3 Sand' is a video installation created as a response to the specific site, a 1st world war cavern on mount Sabotin near Nova Gorica, Slovenia. The volume corresponds to the volume of the cavern dug out by soldiers mostly by hand in the course of 2 years. On Nika Oblak & Primož Novak's request a digger in a quarry composed a 900 m3 large pile of sand in a day. The action alludes to the absurd amount of the labor invested in constructing a battlefield and the pointlessness of warfare. (S...

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - Reality is out (00:02:01)
Production: EMARE MEX 2012-2013 – New Mexican and European Media Art, Halle in cooperation with Centro Multimedia of Centro Nacional de las Artes, Mexico City, 2012
'Reality is Out' is a kinetic video installation, which combines Nika Oblak & Primož Novak's performance video, pneumatic mechanism and the actual cardboard sign, which appears as if exiting the video frame and literally entering the exhibition space. The work is a continuum of Oblak and Novak's exploration of the relationship between reality and fiction. As according to Žižek, today's reality has appropriated a fictional structure.

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - Sisyphus Actions (00:03:00)
Production: 2011
'Sisyphus Actions' is a kinetic video installation in which Nika Oblak & Primož Novak repeat monotonous, seemingly purposeless actions over and over. A surreal, absurd situation reflects contemporary global way of life, where people are trapped by daily routines and artificially produced consumerist needs. Software synchronizes custom designed pneumatic system with a particular video, thus transferring 2D video image into 3D actual space. (Source: Nika Oblak & Primož Novak) Co-production: SAIR...

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - The Box (00:01:02)
Production: 2005
'The Box' is a kinetic video installation which shows Nika Oblak & Primož Novak being trapped, trying to escape to the outside. As they hit their fists against the walls of the interior surrounding them, trying to break through, each hit is visible, since the rubber bends outwards. The work is influenced by constant exposure to mass media messages and inability to avoid its effects. It evokes detachment, the possibility to exist outside prevailing systems. Oblak and Novak's attempt of escape...

Nika Oblak & Primož Novak - Border Mover (00:02:45)
Production: Co-Production/Koproducent: MMCA Residency Changdong, National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seul, Južna Koreja, 2015
'Border Mover' is a kinetic video installation made in co-production with MMCA Residency Changdong, National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul, South Korea, dealing with contemporary individual being trapped by overwhelming technology and routine of our everyday existence, which more and more resembles monotony of operating machines. It is playing with ideas of physical and psychical boundaries as the consequence of capitalistic, neoliberal globalization, where it seems dreams are impos...

RÁTNEEK - 2 0 4 5 (trailer) (00:00:45)
Production: 2016
“May 7th, 2045 I decided to go back home.” “For its architectural aesthetics accompanied by a peculiar soundscape leaving the audience in a timeless space, the best Slovenian Award goes to 2045 by Maja Prelog and Blaž Murn.” wrote the jury (Enrico Vannucci, Fritz Hock in Valerie Wolf Gang) awarding the film with The Best of FeKK SLO Award at the FeKK Ljubljana short film festival 2016.

Uršula Berlot - Inverse Space (04:24)
Production: 2017
The video works on two levels of microscopic observation: the first line of recordings shows the transformation of a non-living (inorganic) substance from one physical state to another – namely, the process of crystallization, which involves the transformation of an ionic liquid state into a solid matter triggered for the purpose of maintaining a balanced system. The recording of the formation of various crystal types is interrupted by a set of static images of geometrically-shaped concentric patterns...

Anja Medved - Town in a Meadow (01:03:00)
Subtitle: video essay on Nova Gorica
Production: Kinoatelje, 2004
When the Primorska Region was annexed to Yugoslavía, the town of Gorica/Gorizia remained in Italy. In 1948, a new Gorizia (Nova Gorica) began to be built on the Yugoslav side. The town in a meadow, on a swamp, on an abandoned cemetery by an old brickyard has stood for long years like a skeleton in the middle of an empty space, alongside an immensely wide street that led nowhere. People who were moving to the town from half over the country soon discovered that they found themselves in the ‘Wild...
