"Home page sweet home page": A real virtual house in the world wide web !

Epiphora (Tearing problems.) This video talks about home through one of the main aspects that, in my
opinion, define this concept: the notion of heritage. In this sense, the video recalls the Spanish
tendency towards the mystique and the dramatic which has been transmited to the Latinamerican
cultures.

reMi, Austria:
the constant surrender to interrupted line interlacings (caused by failed calculations) and the remaining
reality - codes comprising columns of figures or words apparently found coincidentally - give this
symbiosis a symbolic character. the raging rythm of the geometry of renate oblaks video images and
the furious fragments of sound in michael pinters music refuse to reproduce (or distort) the visible
world; confronting us instead with their own intense, artificial and seemingly technoid realm.
Tanja Vujinovic and Zvonka Simcic, Slovenia:
Homework is a video work created by our - Slovenian/Serbian tandem. Disjointed part of the body is
orchestrating the symphony of hypnotic and annoying repetitive sounds of a sewing machine
simultaneously metaphorically performing inscriptions on the body. Here we can find the Nietzschean
notions of the eternal return mixed with the medical fetishism, wrapped up in a safe, home surrounding.
Anouk de Clerq, Belgium:
this work unfolds a space where you can drop your guard: a comforting place built of shapes and
sounds whispering: here never alone.

real-time webcams in New-York, Paris and Berlin. What's the link between the space of the translation
and the space of the cities. An homage to Muntadas "On Translation".

Bits ( of Barcelona) The method used for the assembly to been the utilization of the own one original
sound mounted as if about a musical piece it was treating. Generating digital mistakes in the
apprehension and the postproduction, narrative without beginning not even end. Emphasizing this way
the sensation of a chaotic and stressful city to her time that tourist and multicultural. BITS shows
Barcelona as a city that grows to a dizzy speed. An unfinished work.
Rita Stavraki, Greece
"Love Landscapes" is a short video clip, part of the exploration that I dolately on the topic of irony. The
video clip uses opposite rhythms andmotions of single human gestures in order to present the
compicated need of communication. The metaphorical images that are created engrave the path of
love and passion.

My home is my land, and my land is the Earth I'm living in.
The micro plans of the nature present the same structures as the earth itself.

Il / The Manim�l is a study about a man in the bath. Composed with only a few seconds of real action,
the tape focuses on the mans body, the water, his erotic play with a handle. Thereby the video gives
an entire image of the protagonist and his desires.
Sabine Ruff, Germany
When I see a part of my personality in the reflection of another person is this the moment when I�m

The doorbell. Home for me is a particular functioning of social structures.
"The doorbell" is a metaphor for it.
Javor Gardev & Kalin Nikolov, Bulgaria
This video was shot near a fishermen�s village (Shabla) in North-East of Bulgaria. It features a Russian
river ship of the type "Volgo-Balt� sunken and abandoned in the Black Sea on the Bulgarian coast line.
This image revealed to me as a visual metaphor both for the geopolitical and the spiritual condition of
Bulgaria today � rusty, somehow desperate, abandoned by its own people. Still beautiful though.
Ventsislav Zankov, Bulgaria
What home means... What my home means while we are in a permanent transitions . now we have to
adopt the global values in a politically correct way. We are told this is the only way. Nobody mention
what we have to lose in this transitions.which appears to be one-way street.
Judith Nothnagel, Germany
Phenomenon: Home means: meadows and humidity on my skin. In the video I use my typical
alienation effect, the symbolic color blue. This leaves room for interpretations. Among other things an
allusion to gene manipulation.
Selda Asal, Turkey
In "house of glass" , there are 10 different kind of human reactions of getting out/ or excaping.in all
these 10 films was acting the same girl........... so...I think this film gives the idea about many many
different ways of (pchyological and sociological ) about Turkey.

'The content of work is personal and represents a state of soul and mind at a specific time and space
in the ever changing stream of experiences. The 'One Piece Always Missing' in contrast with Today
'Euphoria', parallels the layer of reality with the layer of dream, where home is one of the high up in the
sky dreams.'
Andrei Fadeev, Russia

Janus Head / Kiss: The Janus Head, a symbol of wisdom, recognizes past and future and analyzes
opposits. It transforms itself into two heads kissing each other - a symbol of love, unity and harmony
in the timeless present.
Gair Dunlop, Scottland
The piece is called 3 mornings, it's a simple reverie on different states of waking and the lives woken
to. It might also reflect on the limits of the traditional idea of home to encompass the diversity of life
in a modern city...
Michael Sellam
The border between dream and reality is sometimes so complex for communication that an event must
reformulate and enabled it to traverse the world. Traum is the story of a character in a movie theater.
The video refers to a netart project:

Bernd Oppel In my video "aesthetics of disappearance" I try to
celebrate the disappearance of images (in allusion to Virilio) in movies at the absolute point of death the moment of switching off the equipment.

Die Kinder agieren wie T�nzer. Auf ihrer Terrasse erreichen sie schutzlos und gl�cklich das Ende der

DEPRESSO light: Field-strikes and windmill-fights agitate shadowbox art.
Steve Hawley, Great Britain:
In Similar To Nothing at a man and a woman
seem to be having problems in their home. They attack each other; she cries. All this is given a restless, scratchy quality by the jerkiness of the image, and the video inhabits a middle space between bizarre dance and domestic tragedy.
