A Draughtsman Illusion

A chain reaction as a new Olympic sport.

A brief journey through the human experience as seen by the eyes of an Artificial Intelligence.

An abstract computer-generated film. The image is of squares revolving in space around and through each other. Colors and forms multiply and divide against a beautiful symphonic score by George Kleinsinger.

Dilution is an experimental short film that explores the transit between resistance and (di)ssolution, between holding and releasing and a path towards obsessive repetition. They are layers, exposed pores, matter that oscillates between remaining or disappearing. The sound is not a background, but a puncture: friction, tearing, water that drags what still persists. A sensorial testimony of what refuses to vanish completely.

I HAD A... (DREAM) unfolds as a trip where dance, stop-motion animation, sound, and imagery interplay, far from established dimensions and expectations. Mushrooms immerse the viewer in a dreamlike space, where the film becomes a site for deviation and disruption.

Through thread and textile, an Asian seamstress tries to escape from the factory.

Composed entirely of AI-generated visuals and providing an abstract representation of the evolution of AI video, processed entirely through a VCR.

This is a didactic film in disguise. A progression of brilliant geometric shapes bombard the screen to the insistent beat of drums. The filmmaker programmed a computer to coordinate a highly complex operation involving an electronic beam of light, colour filters and a camera. This animation film, without words, is designed to expose the power of the cinematic medium, and to illustrate the abstract nature of time.

A surrealist short film by Ellie Thatcher, following acceptance of a changing world by a high-ranking noble.

The portrayal of a gargantuan baby splashing through silver paint.

The word “me” sinking into a bubbling puddle of metallic goo. The piece is about how narcissistic artists have to be to make their work, but by admitting their narcissism, they can at least take some steps to control it.

The model’s feet are uncomfortably squeezed into the heels, and her movements are slippery on slick silver liquid, before she slowly and ominously destroys the glass pane separating the subject from the viewer.

Placing a word widely acknowledged as amongst the most offensive in the English language into the hands of each of the women in her video, Minter reclaims it from chauvinistic associations and rescues it from centuries of censorship and degradation.

The world shifts subtly while silent watchers already understand.

An atmospheric journey, following the unstoppable forces that shape this world. A story beyond humanity.

Two girls explore their relationship and what it means to be in the world and be vulnerable in this hand drawn graphite animation.

In 2057, a smart house remains standing in a world without humans after a nuclear war, along with the robots inside it. The robots continue their daily routines meaninglessly. While humanity has been destroyed by a power of its own making and greater than itself, this artificial order, in parallel, is also unable to withstand the greater force of nature for long.
