The program collects films that are asking the same questions: What was here before? And how can you show it if it’s not there anymore? When and how did absence turn into presence? Does it always do that?
It also connects places in East and West, New York, Berlin and Warsaw. Shanghai and Venice. Not only through images, but also through the people who made the films (and are in them): For them, 1984 had been fiction and 1989 a reality. They are from a generation that has been producing images and sounds before and after the Berlin Wall, in East and West, until today.
Program runtime is 62 minutes.
a-b-city by Dieter Hormel and Brigitte Bühler
BRD 1985, 8 minutes, digital projection
Accompanied by a score using music of Pere Ubu and Einstürzende Neubauten, a-b-city revolves around West-Berlin’s psychodelic atmosphere. Brigitte Bühler and Dieter Hormel, who were renown for their fast paced and skillfully edited Super-8 clips, mix TV images and time-lapse shots of nightly streets, drifting clouds, and a men continuously jumping in front of the Berlin Wall, bringing about an impression of the enclosed city that constantly shifts between ecstasis and depression.

5 lessons and 9 questions about Chinatown by Shelly Silver
USA, 2009, 10 minutes, digital projection
You live somewhere, walk down the same street 50, 100, 10,000 times, each time taking in fragments, but never fully registering THE PLACE. Years, decades go by and you continue,unseeing, possibly unseen. A building comes down, and before the next one is up you ask yourself ‘what used to be there?’ You are only vaguely aware of the district’s shifting patterns and the sense that, since the 19th century, wave after wave of inhabitants have moved through and transformed these alleyways, tenements, stoops and shops.
10 square blocks, past, present, future, time, light, movement, immigration, exclusion, gentrification, racism, history, China, America, 3 languages, 13 voices, 152 years, 17,820 frames, 9 minutes, 54 seconds, 9 questions, 5 lessons, Chinatown.

Former East/Former West by Shelly Silver
USA, 1994, excerpt 10-15 minutes digital projection
Made up of hundreds of street interviews done in Berlin two years after the Reunification, FORMER EAST/FORMER WEST is a vital, surprisingly open, and at times disturbing documentary. Silver questions the very notion of a shared language, focusing on changing definitions of words for political and economic systems – democracy, freedom, capitalism, socialism, nationality and history.
Magnetic [eye] Berlin by Gunter Krüger
Germany, 2007 / 08, excerpt 10 minutes, digital projection
Since 1997, Gunter Krüger has been archiving media fragments which he finds on the street – broken audiotapes, scraps of VHS and discarded compact discs. At the location he records additional filmic notes.
In the second part of the “Magnetic [eye]” series, “Magnetic [eye] Berlin”, a selection of media fragments forms a portrait of his living space. The film is designed as a generative structure, i.e. there is no final version.
In 2007 and 2008, three different playlists were made, each varying in both the selection of the media fragments as well as their compilation. By integrating new modules, new playlists with predefined running times can be created for each screening.

Proprio Aperto by Judith Hopf, Natascha Sadr Haghighian, Florian Zeyfang
Germany / USA, 2005, 6 minutes, digital projection
The single channel video and installation work PROPRIO APERTO, which was first presented in February 2005 at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago in the exhibition, “Universal Experience: Art, Life and the Tourist’s Eye,” shows a walk taken through the giardini, the grounds of the Venice Biennale, in winter.
The conversations that took place there among Judith Hopf, Natascha Sadr-Hadhighian and Florian Zeyfang result in a text that circles around landscapes of ruin, ghosts and the Dasein in cultural hegemony. The images — actually photographs — are presented in slow pans, and the various levels of destruction of the pavilion come more and more into the center.
The tone of voice and language congenially conveys the suitably contemplative mood during the walk, which carries over to the spectator.
The Rooms (excerpt) by Tim Blue and Paul Rowley
USA 2010, 5 minutes, digital projection
With rich sound design and diverse formats, THE ROOMS is an experimental study of an abandoned world that somehow continues to operate. This excerpt feautures the HAU 1 / Hebbel am Ufer, a historical theater in Berlin, that turned into a cultural space for contemporary experimental and innovative theater and performance art (HAU 1).

River Humber, South Ferriby. Some local people had just come to feed them, and after they finished their meal, these geese actually stood there just like this for ages, seemingly watching the sunset. I have been told that those two had been "partners" for about five years.
Same old view of Granville Ferry but, I am in the midst of a 50 day project and today was a busy day.

During a February, 2024 photo shoot at Maine's Wiscasset, Waterville & Farmington Railway Museum, a WW&F train crew, led by Conductor Ed Lecuyer, backs their Sandy River & Rangelely Lakes mixed train past the photo line, in preparation for another photo run-by. In this frame, the crew is using the WW&F's standard hand and whistle signals to control their train, doing things exactly as they would have been done, long before there were any radios. At night, kerosene-burning lanterns would be substituted for the gloved hands, but the procedures would be the same. Photographers who attend photo events at the WW&F never have to worry about radios or microphone spoiling the look of their photos, because the crews simply don't ever use them.
This particular image depicts a special train, with WW&F Locomotive #9, dressed in the livery of her first owner, the Sandy River & Rangeley Lakes Railroad, which was Maine's largest 2-foot operation. It also depicts Franklin & Megantic Coach #2, which served the Sandy River as their Coach #21. The train is passing through a stretch of WW&F trackage known as Albee's Field, not far south of Milepost 7.

This is not my picture. I forgot to bid at the last minute on Ebay. I have a very similar picture of a child on a bed with the coffin nearby. I thought they looked very similar (different siblings?) but the wallpaper is not the same.
This picture is taken on the same model photography course as I mentioned earlier. This time, however, we definitely had a not-your-typical-poster-girl model. She was a great and inspiring model and, on top of all, brave enough to pose in these kind of images. And the images from that session, they turned out to be the most creative so far! I spent quite a few hours in Photoshop to create different moods and themes for each of these pictures.
Thank you to everyone else who were on this model shoot session and contributed to this picture!
Same elephant at a different angle to include some visitors for a size comparison.
This was a gigantic elephant (affectionately referred to as "Henry"). O.O!

Hot Toys Star Wars Rouge One Jyn Erso Deluxe version. As I quite like the movie Rouge One much better than EP7~EP9 I ended up buying a few Hot Toy figures. This deluxe version also came with DX series style box design the same as Chirrut Deluxe version. As Jyn Erso is a smaller figure there is quite a big gap between the inner box and the contents tray but the figure itself and the accessories are great.
Different Pose.
Never fired a shot this weekend. Had intended to go to Homer this weekend for the last Eagle feeding but just plain didnt have the energy and really didnt want to take my rig through the possible volcano ash.
8 more treatments and the Doc says I should begin to regain my energy.

The photographer who made the first picture made this picture too on the same occasion at least. As the prints are already more than 100 yerars old they show their age, but I cleaned it up as best I could do.
It seems yhey still have not started as no crew is present to swing the propeller and hold the machione till the ready mark of the pilot.
