Schon (USA),
Snow Advisory, DVD, 2000, 15 mins.
3 female characters on the lam in a moonscape wilderness from some unknown
threatening authority. In their possession is the mysterious symbolic
golden egg. They arrive finally at the dream cave where the journey
of transformation occurs… multiple metaphors. Premiere

Morphology, Super 8 telecines +
videos, 2001-04, 16 mins 39 secs.
(each short work separated by period of black)
For this collection of animation pieces, I used 5,000 charcoal drawings,
it took 3 months to complete. The main theme is the build up of aggression
in the world. The other pieces come from my dreams and nightmares. The
videos deal with memories ....

The Surface, 16mm/DV,
2003-04, extract 13 mins 10 secs.
This is a short excerpt from a new 33min. digital video, that has been
made from liquid paper, white light and over 300 discarded 16mm educational

Three mates go on an antisocial spree, it all ends rather mysteriously

Eaton, Hole
Film, 16mm/video, 2001, 4 mins 50 secs, silent.
Found footage punctured and bonded arte povera style. The conservative
image juxtaposed with innuendo and oblique architecture.
Tony
Woods, Facing
You, Super 8 film/DVD, 2004, 10 mins, extract.
Two Super 8 films superimposed, chosen by length not subject matter,
what I was hoping for was the possible synchronicity of frames combining
in ways not foreseen, there are several such in this short extract .....

Ostrovskis,
Stained Glass Window, Super 8 film/video,
1993, 8 mins 30 secs, silent.
Colourful film, everything zooms in, fast paced.
Jesper
Fabricius (Denmark),
Language is the House we Live in,
35mm/video, 2002, 18 mins 51 secs.
Painter / filmmaker, he is more interested in the celluloid than in
classical narrative: in this film he composes a series of shots of building
sites and Icelandic landscapes, using various colour filters and added
effects that manipulate time ….. all is constantly evolving.
