Dr. Jeckyll and Ms. Hyde
This black-and-white nightmare gives Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic tale of the dark id a campy, gender-flipping treatment reminiscent of George Kuchar’s works. Quaffing some chemical homebrew in her personal laboratory (like everything here, a "set" created by black paint on white construction paper), this female Dr. J. soon discovers her wild side.

Global Groove
Global Groove was a collaborative piece by Nam June Paik and John Godfrey. Paik, amongst other artists who shared the same vision in the 1960s, saw the potential in the television beyond it being a one-sided medium to present programs and commercials. Instead, he saw it more as a place to facilitate a free flow of information exchange. He wanted to strip away the limitations from copyright system and network restrictions and bring in a new TV culture where information could be accessed inexpensively and conveniently. The full length of the piece ran 28 minutes and was first broadcasted in January 30, 1974 on WNET.

Big Bang Love, Juvenile A
An unknown future. A boy confesses to the murder of another in an all-boy juvenile detention facility.

Homosexual tension and explosive violence drives the story which delivers some weird and fascinating visuals.

Distant Nixa
The film choreographically covers the distance between two women and their mirroring selves, under Laurie Spiegel's soundscape and with the ambiance of VHS video. Their bodies, sometimes two and others four, are always connected with a rope, influenced by white noise retro interference, sound scratches and pauses. They approach each other until they connect and then finally completely disappear, nullifying the distance between them. The reverse movement of these similar bodies-idols aims to compose a dance of the two and the one, our close and more distant self and to reach to the void in between them.

Han (on the sun)
Han closes a trilogy that began with Ere erera baleibu... (1968) and continued with Impressions en haute atmosphère (1991), which goes from the microcosm of atoms (Ere Erera) to the macrocosm of cosmic galaxies. After an "informal" abstraction obtained through the projection of fine particles on a transparent film tape from which all notion of form is shunned, the artist reintroduced in his following movies simple shapes, circles and spirals, coils, reproduced according to the most traditional technique of movement decomposition (animation cinema), which "channels" Brownian motion of matter.

"Ryuta is 5 years old. Even though he is my son, I sometimes wonder what this small person is to me. Even though I see his joys and sadnesses and know the feel of his warmth on my skin when I hold him, there are moments when my feelings for him become vague and blank." - Takashi Ito

Masquerade
For the first time I am animating hand-painted engraved cut-outs on a full-color background. The film is mood-filled: A duel scene in a snowy forest, obviously the morning after a masquerade ball. Harlequin lies dying, while Red Indian walks away with the wings of victory. The woman between them appears, cat-masked. The mask dissolves away. Her spirit passes into the face of the sun upon the sun upon the sun flower. But Harlequin cannot escape death. The blue world engulfs him.
