International Festival Plastic Bag Videos
The series of videos created under the motto “many and half good” continues. In this third video a sequence from a recently released advertisement for Citroen is used to recontexualize the scene. To the tacky soundtrack and the tremendously sentimental narrative a computer rendered voise has been addred, which render the scene a radically different quality.

The series of videos created under the motto “many and half good” continues. In this second video a sequence from a recently released film “Four Brothers” (John Singleton) are used to recontexualize the scene. To the tacky soundtrack and the tremendously sentimental narrative highly violent images are attached, which render the scene a radically different quality. However, in respect of cinema, is it still ‘American Beauty”.

"Tanger nonstop" is a 97 minutes documentary in and about the morrocan city of Tangiers featuring the writer Mohamed Choukri, the story-teller Mohammed Mrabet, the painter Hamri and the Jilala musicians. The film goes on a trip criss-crossing the myths of the legendary "Interzone" and encounters a postcolonial presence. Situated in the very north of Marokko, Tangiers is today a city like any other in the socalled "third world": surrounded by slums and a free-trade zone of sweat shops where young women from the south produce cheap clothes for the seasonal sale.

Stan Vanderbeek (1927-1984) experimented with the interaction of man and the Intermedia-Network of film, TV, video and computer graphics. He subverted the industrialized mass-media by revealing their structure in his works.
