Each month we show another program with a different perspective and theme. To celebrate this development an offline screening of the first Special Program Fragments took place in Geborgen Kamers in April 2009, The Hague, the Netherlands.

Updates.
Ryan Seslow's Curatorial Debut "Video Synthesis" will be screened as a part of The Streaming Festivals first Special Programs Exhibition: "Fragments" takes place in The Geborgen Kamers Gallery, The Hague, Netherlands. Opening: 15 April 2009 - the screening starts at 20.00.
The screening continues on 16 and 17 April 2009

Fragments brings together video work that in some way address the idea of fragmentation, whether through visual technique or concept. Several films in this selection focus on the object of the photograph -a reminiscent of a fraction of time and memory. Others are based on the structural elements of film making such as the close up shot and abstraction as the basis.

This selection is the curator’s response the truly eclectic collection of works from three editions of Streaming Festival database. Therefore, the concept of Fragments becomes an ambiguous expression in this context simultaneously symbolizing a fragment of the Streaming Festival collection as well a metaphor for fragmentation of images and ideas.

The second program: Video Synthesis screened in the Geborgen Kamers has been composed by Ryan Seslow.
Video Synthesis is an examination of the Inter-relationships of Video Art, Performance, Experimental Film, & Vanguard Documentary. The purpose of this exhibition is to survey, expose, and raise the awareness of motion related art through the medium of video. The works exhibited have all been created using a digital video camera and computer based editing software as a means of expression and communication.
