Night Music
Nachtmusik, op. 168 - 2014
Night Music


Wittwulf Y Malik

Germany
2014 / 0:13:00

The night – a great and silent party. Up to one third of our lives we spend in the silence of the night, asleep. The control of our consciousness is dissolved and we find ourselves in the realms of the subconciousness and the dreams. That’s how the music starts: A large gate opens and a long journey through all levels of the soul begins. We meet the dark, menace, chaos, but also bright and wide spaces open. It’s as travelling on a ship and on an ever transforming sea. During this common nocturnal journey we experience colors, sounds and landscapes of our own inner world.

A nocturnal walk through the quintaessential city, The Big Apple. The darkness and solitude of the night make the places, and the people, change completely. The images become thus a group of anti-touristic postcards.

Year 4014. The world has been subject to cruel changes. Important parts of the world are moribund, hostile and ice-capped. Only the indestructible forces of the arts are unchangeable and resolute. The arts and Rachmaninov's music alone, played by Boris Giltburg, restore our everlasting belief in our Earth and our humanity.

Hals
Hals


Alessandro Ingaria, Simona Chiapparo

Italy
2014 / 0:09:30

Hals aims to tell the extreme suffering of immigrants died in the Mediterranean sea. The hypertonic drowning syndrome causes a very violent death through osmotic mechanisms, like those destroy the small organisms in the video. A metaphoric representation of biochemical and physiological events of drowning, conceived as an artistic ode to contemporary human drama. The ancient greek word ??? (“hals”) means salt, which contains sodium, one of the principal elements for the life. But sea salt produces brutal death of million migrant people in Mediterranean. Indeed, the word ??? is etimologically linked to “hospitality” and also to “salary” that is a factor of ancient economy, as well as the death boundaries for the economy in western societies.

Looking at the infrasonic backside. The place where the windows should be closed and the curtains drawn, anonymously rehearsing for concert. Looking at the building, you will notice the musicians, sitting and rehearsing in their separated lightened rooms. Every night, this results in a visual interplay of those parallel worlds. Some kind of mosaic or sequencer but still, this auditory interplay is not audible. I was thinking about the idea of switching those rooms on an off to connect and arrange those independent pieces of music and light.

Shot only with an iphone, on a hot summer night near the turkish/syrian border. Feel the ghosts of previous inhabitants such as assyrians and orthodox families. Shot just two weeks before the Kobane battle kicked in at the Turkish/Syrian border, this experimental short movie shows the backstage and the daily night life in this highly tensed region.
