1. “Robador. Sinfonía de una calle” 2011. Damián Peralta Mariñelarena (México, España) 28 minutos.
Proyecto de creación videográfica que se mueve libremente entre el cine de ensayo, el documental y el videoarte. Robador: Sinfonía de una calle, es el resultado de un año de filmaciones, desde la ventana de un tercer piso, de la calle Robador, en el emblemático barrio de inmigrantes del Raval, en el centro de Barcelona. A lo largo de un ficticio día condensado, podemos mirar e intentar penetrar en los universos paralelos que se citan día a día en este fascinante lugar, cruce de historias, lenguas y culturas diferentes.

2. “Après le feu” 2010. Jacques Perconte (Francia) 7 min 9 s.
In Ajaccio, when walking up in the middle of the night, some people thought their houses was on FIRE… In August 2009 I travelled by train through these Corsican lanas burnt by summer fires. The landsacape will be different during many years. I filmed the devastation. A few miles from Ajaccio, Corsica, burnt land is buckling Ander the weight of its colors. The ground is falling apart, realeasing pictural energies that take over the sky. I’m starting at the vanishing skyline.
And the train keeps on rolling…
3. “Addictions” 2011. Giovanni Bucci (Reino Unido) 2 min.
The video is about addictions, mainly to technology, but it's open to various interpretations. Years ago the idea behind technology was to give people more free time from work and give us a better life. So nowadays, with the possibility for the majority of people to have access to electronics and hi tech, is it true that we have more spare time and a better quality of life? Or have we become addicted to the technology that surrounds us everyday and it has suck us into it? But humans get addicted really easily to a lot of things in life and this video is also a metaphor about addictions in general, about being manipulated without even realizing it or without reacting.
4. “Santa Eva” 2009. Judith Mata & Carla Fernández (España) 11 min.
A modo de exorcismo Santa Eva presenta las efervescencias de una mujer que ya no cabe dentro de sí.
5. “Toma de posesión” 2010 Francisco Molina & Judith Mata (España) 14 min.
Se trata de investigar las relaciones entre cuerpo, espacio, música, tiempo y color, y en cómo los resultados estéticos de este conglomerado de interacciones son capaces de transformar emotivamente al espectador. La disección del cuerpo a través del vídeo, el movimiento del artista en directo y la unión temporal entre estos fragmentos, el color y la música finalizarán en un hecho en el que gracias al estudio de lo parcial se alcanzará lo compacto.
6. “Than” 2010. Danny Winkler & Emilia Loseva (Reino Unido) 27 min
An embellished trip to Than Monastery in Kutch, India, where the last monk remains, surrounded by caretakers and decaying frescoes. Broken into mental segments and emocional gestures. Than is accompanied by the haunting music of Charlemagne Palestine.
The structural composition with the subheadings reflecto n Pilles Deleuze’s cinematic philosophies. Charlemagne Palestine’s music was recorded in different locations and different pieces were layered one onto another which encouraged us to use similar techniques in clearing the imaery of the film: broken and mended spatial frescoes framed by the totality of the experience.
7. “Genghis Khan’s Dreams” 2009. Danny Winkler & Emilia Loseva (Reino Unido) 12 min 44 s.
The film was made out of footage shot in the museum of legendary Soviet director Sergey Parajanov in Yerevan, Armenia, with their co-operation, and completed in our own Studio in London.
We presnt this film to swell amongst your senses. Sculptures as a poetic movement with a desire to match that dreamy state of breath and to visualize the rhytm of the substance pulsating in between the real and unreal, Genghis Khan’s Dreams is short and interrupted like a deamitself. Images flota and tranform to livid flickr by the end. On the bordeline of imaginable and posible scenarios, the camera transcendí the unpredictable cadentes of eroded textura, fragile frames and vibrating colours.
8. “Slick Horsing” 2010. Kiron Hussain (Inglaterra) 2 m 44 s.
A fragmented allegory — the lady kindles her photo-sensitive epilepsy in lieu of opium.

9. “Walking City Redox” 2011. Michiel van Bakel (Paises Bajos) 3m 30s
The extremely slow combustion of a utopian model (Walking City by Archigram) forms a symbolic image and an aesthetic experience: the ineffable beauty of destruction.
Archigram’s Walking City : jubilant notion of consumer choice combined with optimised technology that relies on infinite resources. (1964)

10. “Hello! An idea for a new video” 2010. Neno Belchev (Bulgaria) 3 m 3 s.
The first minute is an interpretation of two old jokes in nowadays situation. After that, in next 2 minutes there are some explanations about it. But the most important are the last 10-15 seconds from the video.

11. “D.I.V.A” 2011. Lara Celenza (Italia) 6 min 24 s

12. “Neurología 09 @ Goin’s palace” 2011. Antón Ignorant (Argentina, España)
13. “Axiom” 2010. Rally Grizzell Larson (Philadelphia, EEUU). 1 min
The rhythm of clapping hands, the repetition of images in equally timed segments: We are lulled and seduced. Like any other high-functioning receptor, the human brain is indiscriminate about what it picks up. How then do we resist the seemingly benign when we're mesmerized by it in spite of our better judgment?

14. “Metropol Drift Reaction” 2011. David Anthony Sant (Corea del Sur , Reino Unido) 4 min 11s
The filming method used to create this film can best be described as Extemporaneous Film Making. The filming process evolved over a period of four weeks with instances of poetic motion being captured erratically and within three or more takes. Decisions about what to capture and what not to capture germinated and became themes within a work that documents an odyssey through some of the districts of Seoul, South Korea.
15. “Twelve haikus in lethargy (unfinished)” 2010. Danny Winkler & Emilia Loseva (Reino Unido) 7 min 17 s
The passive realism of nature reveals itself through simplicity and lightness. Three lines of verse draw on the correlation between image and phenomena in one temporal point. Using the manoeuvres of this stylised form, the film captures with minimal means of expression the rhythm of the way of things.
It creates that special atmosphere which transcends through imagery and reflects in a stylised manner the delicate spirit of post-silver-age haiku, which has since remained lethargic and still represents an unfinished story of the genre.
16. “A Movement Towards” 2010. David Anthony Sant (Reino Unido-Malta) 6 min 33 s
The film is an experiment in associated imagery. Within each sequence are images of water as it is pulls and pushes against and together with a diverse but considered range of materials, surfaces and objects. One sequence of footage will move in one direction only to be followed by another sequence that will move in a different direction. The connection between one sequence and the next is the principle of unity through association.

17. “Somewhere / Elsewhere” 2010. David Anthony Sant (Reino Unido- España) 3 min 6 s
Structurally, this experimental film is very much influenced by abstract expressionist painting. Lines, patterns and colours are combined with movement and direction. Tranquility is soon replaced with frantic flashes of light and rapid panning shots. Experiences of locations and space are transitory. Dreamless tranquility remains evasive.

18. “Mirrors” 2010. Demetra Englezou (Chipre) 3 min
Mirrors are a motion art video that reflects energy of the
movement, sound, harmony, space and gravity. Mirrors guide you through a
journey where you are listening openly and accepting the feelings that
reflects on your instant emotion. Finally, the mirrors are a doorway to
another world. It is a metaphor of possible imaginative worlds.
19. “Der Bau” 2010. Thom Kubli (Alemania) 22 min 44s
The first scene shows the actual atelier space of the artist in Berlin. The route -seen through the lens of a handheld camera- leads through the open window on a scaffold that is installed on the outside of the building. The camera eye follows the route upwards, passing several floors to the highest point of the construction. Consistently it scans the large complex of buildings, the different levels of the scaffolding, the deserted inside spaces of the building, the social and architectural surrounding. While the distant and vertiginous view from the heights of the scaffold becomes continuously readjusted by the camera eye that examines the environment, the descent from the metal bar construction finally leads back to the starting point, -the inside space of the atelier. The whole shot consists of a single performance. There ́s no cut or edit within the whole lengths of the video.
The sound of the video consists of a slowly and steadily changing tone, a minimal drone.
“The audio originally derives from an improvised guitar piece that I recorded in New York in 2010. The quietest space in the noise-flooded apartment of my hosts was the bathroom. So it became my recording space and mental residuum for a couple of hours.” The recordings have been digitally decelerated and spatially abstracted to an extent that they transform into a constant sonic flow.
20. “The Art-Qaeda Project” 2010. Wei-Ming Ho (Taiwán) 7 min 3 s
In a weird atmosphere, the project set out for an exciting adventure. Did the images represent the secret signals, an extraordinary parade or a silent protest? By means of guerrilla art action, we used the high power projector to project the images in motion with high mobility to display a stunning visual firework and presented the conversation between the images and the city environment.
21. “Self-Destruction for eternity” 2011. Wei-Ming Ho (Taiwán) 6 min 26 s
Who decides who's good or bad? Who decides who could stay alive or die? Who is the next victim? The calm before the storm...are they all illusions? Or there are realities of dark side and tragic flaws hidden behind the scenes? Using the concept of Machinima to record the process of playing games, we collected the correlate elements from different games and remix them to re-comprehend

27. “All in All II” 2011. Jonathan Gillie (Reino Unido) 1 min 2 s.
To paraphrase Niels Bohr: “To think about the paradoxical nature of quantum mechanics is to think in images, because the only way to know anything about the invisible is to create an image of it. It then becomes, by definition, a human construct, a model, a half-truth trying to hint at something real.”
