PAM: A Ramble with Time
A Ramble with Time chronicles the adventures of Paul Desborough, time traveller as he sets out to understand the mysterious concept of "infinity". Using everyday plastic bags as a vehicle to travel interdimensionally, he must battle against the evil time thief and time keepers who are on a quest to possess the pagan manifestation of infinity itself as described in a simple ball of thread. What he discovers along the way is truly surprising. Filmed in Berlin in 2009. Directed and edited by Shiva Lynn Burgos.

PAM: Broken Windows
Broken Windows consists of the last footage shot with a digital camcorder - these are the dying gasps of the camera. On one level, the piece might serve as a de-mystification of the digital image itself; the degradation of the image broadly implies the processes by which the real world is interpreted as video. Video’s constitution of the world as image is laid bare, and it is disconcerting to see the torturous decay of the image as the camera fights to maintain its simulation of the world. On another level, however, the piece implies the impossible mystery of most technology for most viewers. The functioning of the camera, evident in the image only when it fails as here, is something which most of us can’t - or don’t want to - understand. We comprehend technology so little, that we must engage with it on a purely aesthetic level as a source of magic or wonder, as we do here.

PAM: The Soft Epic, or: Savages of the Pacific West
The Soft Epic or; Savages of the Pacific West takes the form of a moving panorama to imagine the end of History. Comprised of over a hundred layers of composited images spread across multiple projections and an original surround-sound score by Bird Show (Ben Vida), the work draws upon images and effects from historical panoramas, epic sci-fi and disaster films, and the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch in a fractured, dystopic cityscape dotted with eternal flames and chimeras. These images—layered, collaged and seamlessly looped—picture the forces exerted upon collective memory in moments of cultural anxiety and the fluid relationship between Cinema and History. Hollywood splendor usurps mythological and historical narrative in service of political authority and social order.

Artists: Nadia Hironaka & Matthew Suib.

PAM: Four Place Setting
Four Place Setting is an experimental video by the collaborative team of Hillerbrand+Magsamen. Through performance, Four Place Setting examines the contemporary American family by playfully and poetically exploring perceptions of emotions, family, consumerism and media within a uniquely American subjectivity. We closely se the interaction between family members and how one person’s emotions can effect the family dynamic as identities of parent, spouse and child, through the metaphor of fog, veil and reveal one another. What appears to be a typical family dinner becomes surreal as a cloud of fog engulfs and distorts the everyday event and fluctuates between memory, reality and dream worlds.

PAM: Wonderland
Runner Up in the Grand Prize category of the Metropolis Art Prize 2009.

Space takes on multiple definitions. For me, I understand space as the sum of cultural and social forces that act on me. Through the space, my body feels all changes around me instantly and intimately. When I move from Korea to the United States, my body became a gauge that felt my displacement and recognized not only the conformity inflicted on me in the United States, but it also allowed me to deconstruct the rule from my hometown that I had taken for granted as normal. In my video piece, I attempt to convey the feeling of displacement and conformity by acting of walking. I perform walking forward and other people seem to be walking backward. However, I was walking backward in the real scene and I made it simply reversed. The space of being neither here following correct rule nor there following incorrect rule is precisely what I try to convey in this video. I finished NYC Time Square version and will make Portugal version next week. It will continue in several cities.

Last Kodachrome 40 for a Nizo S800 - M.A.P. RUNNER...
Runner Up in the Audience Award category of the Metropolis Art Prize 2009.

Nature has been razed, our gaze lose in a horizon melted between earth and sky; then it pauses, hot, in front of the mirror. A last ray flares before the darkness: and the black of the present lights up the old impressions, fragments of a past time to hypothesise the future.

Artist: Davide Pepe.
