Project title: Work in progress

Logline: In a house surrounded by a strange kind of beauty two men carry out daily routines, as time slowly passes. This single channel video asks: what does the attempt to care look like?

Artist Bio: Pelle Nijburg (1994, The Netherlands) is a filmmaker based in Utrecht. She makes films. Sometimes as a one-man crew, sometimes in alliance with. She likes to resarch modern phenomena. Has a soft spot for archive material. Often an encounter is the trigger to start a project. More often, it's something else - it could be anything. She describes her working method as a sort of ''sight seeking''. Her films are narratively based on true events, but she doubts the use of the word 'true', so it's rather narratively based on 'events': noteworthy happenings.

'''Project Title:''' The Sun Burns An Image Into My Eye<br>
'''Logline:''' Shannon’s two channel video installation, ''The Sun Burns An Image Into My Eye,'' asks, are we permeable? Are the boundaries that separate us less clear than we think? Can we reach across distances, through what remains? The installation invites viewers to look over the 'table' and gaze out a 'window' to look closely at the transformative cycles meandering through mundane life—of baking, gardening, mushrooms decomposing dead animals, a leaky shower—to look for resonance, insight, and meaning.


'''Bio:''' Arising from a process of observation, daily documentation, and self archiving, and drawing on widely accessible mediums of phone photography and video, Shannon’s multidisciplinary practice focuses on mundanity and transience. Recent works apply a perspective of empathy and vulnerability within the interaction between humans and other living beings. Born in Baltimore and previously NY-based, she is a recent graduate of the Piet Zwart Institute: Lens-Based Media MFA program in Rotterdam.

Project: Parasite by Proxy <br>
Logline: Aitan's documentary Parasite by Proxy explores the Crypto Jews of Mashhad. Marginalised in Persia, some migrated to Palestine. Eventually they had a majority status as Jews - the guest became the host. The filmmaker integrates this inherited history and identity -victim/benefactor, host/parasite. You are invited to feed on the work in this two-channel film installation.'''<br>
Artist Bio: Aitan Ebrahimoff (1991) is an artist filmmaker based in Amsterdam. His short films combine speculation, documentary and science fiction. With a media design practice he blurs the line between video art and cinema, building hybrid realities with human and non-human actors.<br>
Research and writing are important tools in his process, whereby scripts are used to structure associative narrative elements. Whether factual or fantasy, his films blend genres and incoporate cultural observations which are rooted in reality.<br>

'''Eir-PG'''<br> Eir-PG  invites you to peruse the visual machinations of an alternative Ireland . Indulge yourself in this mischievous one-man-show.

'''Project description''' 

''If I was a Rocket'' (working title) is a non-linear film essay, merging multiple narratives which investigate personal memory, dreams and geological time. A sonic and visual dwell through memory-space and the mists of time reveals an intimate journey to the inner world of the mysterious narrator. 

'''Bio'''<br>
Kotryna Buruckaitė (b. 1992) - is a Lithuanian visual artist/filmmaker currently based in Amsterdam. In her work she investigates humans in (a)typical settings. Fascinated by the pleasure of observing others, Kotryna interrogates one’s interpersonal relationship with the world. With a touch of fiction and absurdity to it, she questions the world's given “set of rules“ and the irregular nature of the mind.

Longline: Film “One-Bedroom-One” is an experimental film combining narrative moving images with found footage.It unfolds from an oral experience: a young lady tried to find strangers to chat on a dating app during her breakup, in order to relieve her loneliness and emptiness. She stumbled upon a stranger with a strange nickname, who locked himself out of the flat, and was forced to waste the time in a nearby park. They all tried to enter this cyberspace to escape the emotional predicament of the moment.

She pays attention to the intimate relationship between people, constantly excavating the hidden reality in daily life, focusing on the narrative of individual experience, and using images to explore the implicit connection between social space and private emotions.

== QUESTIONS ==

=== For Leslie and Simon ===

* Poster: is the 500 euro budget for design and printing?
* When do the venues need our texts, poster, and tech riders?
* Does the school cover the rental costs of projectors and screens and monitors, or does that come out of our individual 750 euro grad show budgets? They are expensive... If not, how do we devide the monitors and beamers and the leftover payments of the people who need to hire extra because of shortage? 
* When do we need to put in our reservations with MTS? Wilco said if we wanted a vinyl screen, we needed to put in the request already by 30th of May... 
* What is the new paperwork we need to fill out for mentors

=== For Florian and Wilco ===

* When can we visit the TENT basement to look at furniture
* Wilco: The pictures on the website of MTS don't seem to work, so a couple of questions about the equipment.  1) Would it be possible to send us some images of the equipment?  2) What is the difference between 'spandoek' and 'frame'? 2) Is 'doorzichtscherm' the seethrough screen and the 'opzichtscherm' a one-sided screen?  3) How big is the vinyl screen?  4) Which ones have legs, and which ones should have a suspension system?
