Eija-Liisa Ahtila – Consolation Service
Consolation Service (1999, 10 MB, 1:43 min.)
“Consolation Service” follows a young Finnish couple, Anni and J-P, as they
make public their decision to divorce. It is set in early spring in Helsinki, with
its frozen landscape on the cusp of thawing.
Consolation service (awarded at the Venice Biennial in 1999) Ahtila also
deconstructs the formation of the narrative and cinematic illusion: as though
in a straight documentary film (Cinéma vérité), both narrator and camera are
shown openly. The illusion of fiction is thus shattered, made visible. The use of
a hand-held shaking camera reminds the group Dogma 95 led by Lars Von Triers.
Guli Silberstein – Beach
Beach (2009, 64 MB, 4:57 min.)
“A happy family is shown on a beach in Tel Aviv, as 100 km away a girl runs
from the bombardment of a beach in Gaza. It’s a reality where tranquility may
turn into horror in an instant. The conflicting scenes on a TV on the blink raise
the impossibility of accepting an absolute picture of a reality.”
By Guli Silberstein.
Marina Zurkow: Slurb – single channel animation
Slurb (excerpt) (2009, 24 MB, 3:43 min.)
“Slurb” was originally commissioned for a 2009 Tampa, Fla., arts festival.
The 18 min. continuous loop with an ambient electronic pop-inspired soundtrack
paints a picture of a post-apocalyptic future world that’s been destroyed by some
sort of alluvial pollution-triggered catastrophe.

“Knitoscope Testimonies is the first web based video using “Knitoscope” software,
a program that translates digital video into a knitted animation. Knitoscope is a moving
image offshoot of microRevolt’s freeware knitPro. Knitoscope imports streaming video,
lowers the resolution, and then generates a stitch that correspondes with the pixels color.
The title “Knitoscope” is based on Edison’s early animation technology the kinetoscope,
which was a “coin operated peep show machine
