An Instagram Short Film

Some of you might remember the first ever video created with Instagram "The Plastics Revolution – Invasión" and some of you who are curious enough to follow TED speeches might remember Blaise Aguera y Arcas speaking about Photosynth - a photo-visualiser using a crowd-sourcing photography from sources like Flickr. Here is a merge of both ideas. As Instagram has its own engine to give access to photos so French director Thomas Jullien made each image a little less ordinary, by weaving hundreds of these similar images together to create a stop-motion video. Jullien aimed to “create structure out of chaos”, and he does so beautifully with 852 different pictures from 852 Instagram users.

Passfolio by Miruna Macri

A passport allows you access to different countries, and hopefully leaving it around will give Miruna Macri access to a job interview as well.The designer’s “passport” is actually her portfolio. The description showcases her resume, and samples of her work can be found as “visas” on various pages. She has deliberately left behind these “passfolios” in her favorite agencies in New York City in a bid to get a job, and we are quite sure that someone will take note of this cool and creative endeavor.

The Void

Audiovisual installation “Void” created by Saint-Petersburg based collective Tundra is an attempt to visualize the idea of emptiness.Emptiness here is regarded not as an absence of everything, but as an initial state when anything can appear. To see how dark room turns into the Big Bang epicenter a visitor should become “empty”. Every move and sound, captured by sensitive equipment, stops the 360 degrees audiovisual flow around.

Mirrored Infinity Rooms by Yayoi Kusama

In Infinity Mirrored Room installation by Yayoi Kusama ( 'I Who Have Arrived In Heaven' Exhibition at David Zwirner Art Gallery ), hundreds of multicoloured LED lights, suspended at different heights and dangling from floor to ceiling, transform a room into what feels like eternity. The cube-shaped, mirror-paneled room has a shallow reflecting pool as its floor and the lights flicker on and off in a strobe-like effect.

The Rapid Eye

Menno Fokma and Floris Vos (FLORIS+MENNO) directed a dark short movie "The Rapid Eye"."The Rapid Eye is a short experimental art & fashion film which is born from the personal need to experiment with a fragmented way of storytelling, practical effects, aesthetics and evoking emotions on a subconscious level. We started the film by experimenting and recording a lot of different scenes we had in mind. Mostly by just the 2 of us. We paid attention to an intuitive way of working. During the process we connected the dots and developed our script into something bigger. With limited budget we managed to arrange locations and a great crew to shoot the spine of the film. We worked together with the amazing team from Box Of Toys Audio. They recorded vocals with a Scandinavian Yojk singer, Juhán Niila Stålka, and custom samples on the HMS Belfast warship in London."
