Elise Augarten France
2023 12 min.

Red boards the train. If she could vanish right then and there, she would. Everything is off, unreal. Memories blend together with the landscape. Time and space collapse. A little girl runs towards a creaking house. Wild grass grows in the train. Red wades through and confronts her past.

While slugs wander across the kitchen floor, Noémie draws up her self-portrait, shifting and fragmented, on the edge between the intimate and the hubbub of the world.

The story is set in a graphic design world where fonts are the main characters. They have unique properties: Bold makes everything thicker, Italic tilts things, Monospace equalizes objects by width, etc. Fonts team up to build a garden, and the five boxing wizards jump in quickly to inspect their work. A negative space storm flushes everything away, but Regular comes and fixes the garden.

The sun sets and the eyes are closing. Rocking from one green leaf to the next, the little monkey glides gently to sleep. Suddenly the world of dreams gets darker, more colorful and wild. Mysterious plants, creatures and shapes line the trajectory through the night. Somni is a cinematic lullaby.

Wavewidth captures the sense of calm that a seaside landscape can provide. Lifted by waves of time, the spatio-temporal markers are blurred by the sound. The marine and sound waves resonate in a contemplative cinematographic experience.

The footage used in the video comes from the archive of the Odesa Film Studio, which was the first film studio established in the Russian Empire. During the Soviet era, many films were shot there, which shaped the childhood of millions of people.

In an extraterrestrial virtual world, a woman of a stylized and rustic race is summoned to embark on a cosmic journey that will transform her into the symbol of post-humanism, a premonitory flash of the future. As she immerses herself in a sidereal assemblage of new fashion, this woman undergoes multiple transformations, unveiling the sensual, aggressive, transgressive and futuristic essence of the brand, along with her vision of a new human being.

Finnish and paranoid dream

Jimena Aguilar Argentina
2024 5 min.

How to talk about the future when it seems there is no future? The world exploded and it only remains a voice formulating hypotheses about a future that will be or that already is. What is all this? A prologue to the future? The future itself? A Finnish and paranoid dream? It seems that the future has already arrived and many of our fantasies about the different futuristic imaginaries already inhabit this world along with our humanity. As an example of this: artificial intelligence, a tool that we used to make this short film and that intersects organically with its concept.
