"ALTNEULAND"
by SARIEL KESLASI.

"My graduation film at Bezalel Academy of Art & Design.
And this year (2013) it is displayed at the Annecy Festival and the Cannes short Film corner Festival.

You are welcome to watch.

The film is a subjective interpretation of the utopian novel, 'Altneuland' writen by Theodor Herzl. By using a surrealist allegory, the film tries to deal with the collapse of Herzl's dream and seeks to emphasize the sense of absurdity and instability..."

Fight by Steven Subotnick.
A showdown between two motley characters.

Collection - Genus for the Paris Opera House by Ravi Deepres

The second of two film installations commissioned by The Opera Garnier, Paris, as part of the performance GENUS, choreographed by Wayne McGregor.

The video installations are made from material relating to a conceptual re-interpretation of the inquiries of Charles Darwin. This work is both filmic and choreographic in it's making and presentation and relates to creation and evolution. This is used as a platform to express ideas and remind us of our own evolutionary process and thinking, and of our instictive connection and reaction to the natural world.

The film is created as a cinematic stop motion work, including a remaking through movement of elements from Edweard Muybridge’s photographic collection (with kind permission from Birmingham library photographic archive) and material shot at The Paleantology museum, Paris, and The Darwin Archive-Natural History museum, London.
Commissioned by The Paris Opera House for the performance Genus 2007

Audiovisual Live Performance: B C H I J - Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism by Stefanie Sixt (Visuals) and Markus Behr (Sound).

An "...experimental examination of the five biggest communities of faith: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism - taken as examples for religious groups. The piece is an audiovisual observation and an exploration. There is no right or wrong. It is a contemplation, seen from a neutral point of view.
Electronic sound scores are mixed with alienated audio elements such as patterns of religious divinations. Wicked frequencies are the disturbing, irritating factor, not letting the listener lay back.
Abstract 3D Objects are representing the five communities of faith. They are embedded into spherical environments, that are temporarily associating brain wave activities or just evoke emotions, like freedom and restriction, belief and doubt.
The pictures reveal the idea behind the visible, obvious. Physical limitations are dissolved by imaginary structures, constructions of unreal spaces...."
