Sound and Music Videos
7th of November 2006 at 20 h / 78’
Since MTV started in 1981 music and visuals have had best encounters in the music video clip, although even before that they were connected in a similar form by "experimental" production which very early became aware of the importance of the sound and music in combination with visual background. Today it is hard to say what is the background – visuals or sound, but the answer to this question is generally provided by the Western civilization based on the culture of "watching" as well as the very banal fact that we will pay attention to what is predetermined as "form".
However, since "video did not kill radio star", but capitalism killed music television, one of the places where we can now watch music video clips are film festivals, which, though, preferring visuals, still at least acknowledge "artistic" achievements of such short form. It could be said that generally popular video clips by hyper-production forced music televisions to turn more to commercials and "reality shows", making video clips find their place under the sun on festivals. This has probably been enhanced by the interest of those who experiment to direct their careers to a more commercial, more profitable or just more challenging form.
So even the program before you is not a video clip program, the other works use somewhat similar poetics – fast editing, witty remark, exceptional visuals and pitching in only a couple of minutes – which can be considered the basic elements of video clips. Still, some authors are primarily known from the "experimental story" (Dariusz Kowalski), some hail from advertising (Gints Apsits), others are oriented to animation processes and flamboyance of digital image (Patrick Doan), while some are already old acquaintances to everybody who follow contemporary "artistic" video clip production (Corine Stübi, Shynola)…
Gathered in a same place like this they definitely promise enjoyment for eyes and ears.

Art
and Cinema
21st of November 2006 at 20 h / 72’
Although already in the title it suggests "experimental film for the beginners" stressing the artistic character of the short film form, this program is more than appropriate introduction in contemporary experimental production. Here it should be particularly good to point out "exotic" countries from which certain works come, such as Lebanon, Slovakia or Russia, numerous new promising directors (Takeshi Kushida) and some very experienced in the field of experiment (Gustav Deutsch), then works already shown on various festivals, for example the Amsterdam IDFA ("On a Wednesday Night in Tokyo") or in Oberhausen ("Beyond the Usual Limits", "WA") as well as various "genre" directions from documentary and feature film, to music video clip and to what we could name recorded performance or experimental film.

École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs
5th of December 2006 at 20 h / 60'
This program is a selection of the recent works from the Paris-based École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs (ENSAD), founded in 1766. From the very beginning, school aimed to develop crafts relating to the arts in order to improve the quality of manufactured goods. Through a rigorous and demanding apprenticeship in the arts, the school strove to combine technique and culture, intelligence and sensitivity, so as to enable the more gifted artisans to develop into creative artists. School's goal is the artistic, scientific and technical training of creative students capable of designing, promoting and developing all manner of works in the field of decorative arts, and the direction of research in the same sectors. The teaching offered at the ENSAD focuses on drawing and visual arts for all students.
It encourages link-ups between the different disciplines by means of shared classes and team work on multidisciplinary subjects. Its areas of expertise are: creation, design, execution, artistic management. Animation, industrial design, photography, scenography, clothes design, video are just several of ENSAD's successful and prize winning ateliers.

Reference to Difference: Croatian video 1994/1996, Zagreb
1996
19th of December 2006 at 20 h / 64’
In the begging of 1996 media group FX Interzone initiated a program of video works that was realized under the name Reference to difference. Seven authors and their videos, made from the year 1994 to 1996, were included in this compilation created for presentation of Croatian video scene in country and abroad - Vlado Zrnić, Milan Bukovac, Igor Kuduz, Simon Bogojević Narath, Davor Mezak, Vladislav Knežević, and Mario Kalogjera.
Program was realized and supported by Institute for Contemporary Art SCCA Zagreb and Croatian Ministry of Culture and it was presented in the galleries from Germany and Moldavia to Slovenia and Canada. "This presentation of Croatian video is a sort of unique but significant event. It is unique as an act of group self-organization, a collection put together by the artists themselves. It is significant because it indicates the artists’ will to take the matter in their own hands – to indicate recognition of an art-field and organize a public reception in a situation where both are seriously insufficient in Croatia. Actually, video artist are working in a quite rarified public atmosphere. (…)
It’s
a well leveled selection, consisting of highly articulated
and subtle works, of remarkable conceptual and imaginal difference
among themselves."

Difference,
Zagreb, 1996)
