Vesna Bukovec - Circular (00:03:40)
Production: Vesna Bukovec, 2016
Video Okrožnica / Circular is a simple animation of spinning circle. A preloader is familiar to all computer and Internet users. The aim of the spinning circle animation is to inform the user that certain process is taking place in the background even though the result is not yet visible. If the circle is spinning for too long, we become nervous and even angry. The endlessly spinning circle could be compared to the slowness of bureaucratic procedures and the powerlessness of those who are waiting. Continuo...

Toni Poljanec - Hope and Despair (00:29:05)
Production: Hupa Brajdič produkcija, 2016
In August 2015, Toni Poljanec and Tina Glavič Novak travelled to the Greek island of Lesbos. They shot a documentary made up of interviews with refugees who survived a traumatic journey across the sea from Turkey on overloaded rubber boats. When refugees land on the shores of the European Union, the prospect of hope soon turns into hopelessness. Their new reality becomes overcrowded and poorly maintained refugee camps. The dreams of a better life seem unattainable. (Source: Toni Poljanec)

Toni Poljanec - Growing Wings (00:23:55)
Production: Kulturno umetniško društvo Teater na konfini, 2016
A short experimental film dances on a thin border that separates the real from the imaginary. Through the exploration of the structure of an internal monologue, it examines the sense of loneliness in society and reflects anxiety. The film methodologically interferes with the means of psychodrama, which help him to discover paradoxical actions that shake everyday life and act as a surreal poetry of dreams of everyday life. (Source: Toni Poljanec) NOTE: On the artist's request, the full video is not publishe...

Neža Knez - For-Nothing (11:37)
Production: N.K., 2016
Videodokumentacija tridnevne akcije, ki jo je umetnica izvajala na delavnici v Regensburgu v Nemčiji. Na sredi travnika v parku, je začela kopati luknjo. Kopala jo je toliko časa, dokler je iz nje še lahko odmetavala zemljo. Nato je luknjo zasula nazaj. Del projekta so tudi odzivi mimoidočih. Avtorica jih je povabila, naj napišejo svoje mnenje o njenem projektu. Zapise je vključila v knjigo umetnice. Statična kamera beleži različne faze kopanja, interakcijo s soudeleženci delavnice in...

Danilo Milovanović - Street Fountain Installation (00:03:36)
Production: D.M., 2016
Water pump is installed in a puddle and hidden under trash. The unusual sight in public space provokes reactions of passers, which destroy monotony of daily routine. Something is happening at unexpected site. Unspectacular look of the intervention allows spontaneous reactions of passers who are not aware of being related to artwork. That adds important dimenzion to the intervention, which blurs the boundaries between art and life. The instalation was repeted couple of times in Ljubljana (Slovenia) in 2016. (S...

Production: M.Z., 2016

A low male voice takes the viewer to a state of mind that would enable him to erase all thoughts referring to military and hatred from his memory.
