Zeitgeist
Posted by Fabio 1 April 2011
Since the original public performance of “Zeitgeist” in 2007, there has been an evolution of intent which has manifested into an on-going film expression consisting now of multiple productions. While each film stands on its own with regard to content, the Zeitgeist Film Series as a whole has a dedicated social intent to create awareness about the world we share, the problems we face, along with what we can do to make it better as a collective species. www.zeitgeistmovie.com
ON TOP DOWN UNDER
Posted by Fabio 31 March 2011
Fridrik Thor Fridriksson’s Erotic Tale On Top Down Under it’s set on different continents, on opposite corners of the world (Australia and Iceland) – yet linked by real time and parallel occurrences that almost impinge on each other. Thus, words would only disturb. Quite simply, the story has to be told by challenging the viewer to accept the logic of coincidence and suspending for a moment the natural laws of the universe.

The breakdown of the television picture discribes the breakdown of the reference. The product is self-referential photography. read more
