CologneOFF – Cologne International Videoart Festival

Founded in 2005, CologneOFF was from the beginning an experimental and temporarily limited festival project, launched at first exclusively online as Cologne Online Film Festival (CologneOFF), but soon renamed to Cologne International Videoart Festival taking the interests of international festival into account to present the curated festival program selections by Wilfried Agricola de Cologne. The project was based on the unconventional concept to be a festival without a static festival location but built on global networking instead, based on a growing collection of art videos to be expanded each year by realising a new festival edition, instead of organising each year again an event just for 3 days, based on a dual system of equal virtual and physical components, focussing on new and experimental artistic expressions, instead of following already known paths. All this gives its founder and director Agricola de Cologne all freedom to set through his ideas of encouraging artists to create “total art” works by using the multi-facetted medium of digital video.
In 2014, CologneOFF is realising its 10th and final festival edition celebrating 10 years exciting developments in the field of “art and moving images” as a final highlight of this successful festival project.
Cologne International Videoart Festival was a project run by artvideoKOELN – the curatorial initiative “art & moving images” and directed by Wilfried Agricola de Cologne.

CologneOFF 20XX ‐ videoart in a global context / CologneOFF XP nomadic
Searching for an ideal form of presenting “art & moving images”
As a dynamic media art event context and nomadic festival project designed, programmed, curated and directed by Agricola de Cologne in the framework of Cologne International Videoart Festival, “CologneOFF 20XX – videoart in a global context” started in 2010, a flexible work in progress, a process incorporating the idea of a festival, not bound to a physical location, but travelling from one venue, country and continent to another presenting a hybrid type of mono-channel videos, which can be presented in the same way via screening, projection and installation
A dual system is forming the supporting frame-work – virtual (online) components (see links) – all videos, info & event updates online – juxtaposed with the physical component in form of networked screenings & exhibitions- Agricola de Cologne’s curatorial opinion juxtaposed with the curatorial opinions of 40 curators (40 countries) demonstrating the multi-facetted diversity of artistic and curatorial approaches – the active presenter juxtaposed with the passively consuming audience to be activated via interventions like lectures, panel discussions, artists talks, round table or workshops, not to forget the different types presentation forms, in total, an interactive context intending to link the audience, artists, curators and institutions by thinking and acting in new terms without any restriction.

    artist biography

    Title: Entitled, video installation, 2003, 3:34

    In collaboration with: Insoon Ha and Peiyun Lee
    A naked newborn baby is not considered wrong or bad. A naked two year old
    On the beach is generally considered normal and innocuous. At what age child
    considered as a human and trained with the set of social practices, disciplinized and socialized?
    “Activities such as walking, experiencing shame (experiencing gender), stigmatization, eating, and dressing, are the daily rituals through which the child attends and trains the body. The body is a powerful symbolic form, a surface on which the central rules, hierarchies, and even metaphysical
    commitments of culture are inscribed (sewed).” _Foucault

    Elia Alba (Domincan Republic)

    artist biography

    Title: If I were a…
    In collaboration with Nicolás Dumit Estévez
    DVD; 4:30 min.
    This video refers to the Banana Dance performed by Josephine Baker in Paris in 1926. The word “jaba” is a negative informal expression from the Dominican Republic that is the equivalent to the term “high yellow” used here in the United States, meaning a very light skinned black person. In this video, the performance artist Nicolás Dumit Estévez wears a skirt similar to the one worn by Josephine Baker in her dance and the mask is that of my face. However, instead of bananas, the skirt is made up of miniature doll heads of various ethnic races. By re-enacting this performance, I wanted to make reference to this historical act, which was about white Parisian culture consuming the acts of a black female body, but in presenting a man in the guise of Josephine Baker, I wanted to reconsider the original narrative of the Banana Dance, which eroticized the black, female body and the consummation of such.

    Title: Warning! Women
    year of production : 2005, duration: 3 min. 12 sec
    In non-modernized patriarchal societies (they are still the majority of humanity) the role of cultural organizing force, “intellect” and “consciousness” is traditionally given to male.
    A woman symbolizes the power of the Unconscious, intuition, chaos. It’s a kind of some impersonal force. She is dangerous like the nature (= threat of disaster).
    The trilogy “Warning: Woman!” is a Rabelaisian illustration for ideas on woman as a “corporal bottom”. It’s an ironic illustration of feminophobia; an illustration of archaic myth (about “vagina dentata”). Woman here is represented as a brutal (though funny) monster that always can deprive a male of his phallic regalia.

    Title: Knit, 2005
    Duration: 9 minutes 4 seconds
    Eleanor Gates-Stuart’s video, Knit (2006), is a gruelingly frustrating depiction of human condition. Her video works are described as – distinguished psychological mindscapes, claustrophobic and compulsively escapeless.

    artist biography.

    Title: Snow-white and red like a rose
    Trick animation video with sound / 5’ / 2005

    Regularly “SNOW – WHITE” becomes “ROSE – RED”
    Takes of her clean appearance
    Goes wild, blooming and pulsating
    To return again into white silence

    This metamorphosis colours the red juice blue
    Blood can not be denied
    ALARM!!!
    Womens’ tears clean their “unsanitary mons veneris”

    Marias’ concentration on her body fluids
    Made her think of a simple analogy
    With the blood of her own son!
    Which sanguine is now allowed to be drunk,
    which blood is worth to be shed?

    Oh, don’t wish for a woman with no abdomen!
    Could she serve better with a missing genital?
    Clean, safe, marias’ mouth can only swear….

    The critical days are “my days”
    Activity can be gained with injections or pills
    The end is the absence of menorrhoea

    But this hide – and – seek can take revenge
    With bouts of the vagina
    Because tampons can only stop, plug and tame
    The juice floating with relish

    The power and fury should not be forgotten
    The life in all its red coloured nuances.
    It’s a beautiful part of you and me……

    artist biography

    Title: Cosmo Club
    year of production 2004

    This art work deals with typical problems of life adjustment in transitional Croatia.
    Split between temptations of consumerism, media influence and real financial and political situation in the country leads to contradictions on everyday basis in common people’s lives.
    This problem is serious but sometimes offers comic moments as a defence against general absurdity and helplessness.
    One of such examples is processing the text from Cosmopolitan.
    The basic idea of this project is inspired by certain «Guide through fantasies», published in Cosmopolitan magazine in January,2004 which promisses «momentary pleasure» by following instructions for sexlife refreshment.
    Superior author of the text tries to help by clear role division (Who are you?,Who is he?,
    What he says?,What you say?,What do you do?,How everything ends?).
    He/she thinks that helps to those who are not creative and fearless enough even for dealing with general questions in politics, economy etc. so how they can be capable of finding mature solutions of own sexsual frustrations? Or the other way around? Those who are not creative enough for their own imaginative intimate life, are they capable enough for independant dealing with socially important questions?
    However, Cosmopolitan is here to help with instant recepes so life can be more alike cliche lives of heroines and heroes from soaps where they are always rich, beautiful, sexy and they get the best and the most of the life.

    Title: Il Nue (the nude), 2006
    The ambiguity between male and female
    « Il nue » est une vidéo qui se joue sur une ambiguïté homme-femme (d’où son titre).
    Une peau, une peau avec poil….homme.
    Une poitrine, mais poilue….homme ? femme ?
    Une poitrine, qui petit à petit est nettoyée par du lait, qui, devient seins….le lait, symbole par excellence de la femme, mais de la pureté aussi ?
    Une femme doit –elle être pure ?
    Les seins, signe de la maternité, certes, mais aussi de l’envie, de la sexualité…..
    « il nue » se propose comme un voyage sur ces questions.

    Title: Gay King
    model: Mariëlle, duration: 3 min., year: 2005

    “I try to re-formulate the question about ‘gender’ again and again through the use of images. For me there’s not one conclusion possible. It is much more interesting to stay surprised and to take that surprise as a starting point, in stead of trying to make a definition.
    This film is an encounter between two (drag)kings and they happen to be gay. The film is also a little tribute to the most brilliant scene in Patricia Rozema’s “I’ve heard the mermaids singing”, where Polly tries to look around the edge of the monitor.”

    Title: Misstar
    Year of Production: 2002, Length: 2 minutes, Format: Digital Video
    In its simplest form, Misstar is film about a woman who dresses up as a man. This process appears to entirely change her identity but this film presents the question: what is her real identity? Perhaps people have many gender identities and it is about exploring ways to express them. MIsstar is a short documentary exploring personal identity and one person’s experiment with her own.

    This film involves two characters: Lee and Misstar (Lee’s drag persona). Misstar has many characters but this film presents just one of them: Johnny Gash. On many Friday nights Lee performs as a singing man in a Drag King shows. It’s entertaining for the people who go to watch; often amusing, sometimes confronting. But for Lee it is about exploring and fulfilling an identity that she feels doesn’t always breathe easily in her life daily life. Dressing up in drag allows her to find expression for a personal urge that materialises as both a committed performer and a convincing male personality.

    This film presents the relationship between Lee and Misstar as a transition in gender identity. It traces Lee’s process of dressing up as Johnny Gash and the actual preparation for performing in drag that night. So, we watch her dressing up physically and psyching up mentally to leave the private persona Lee for a while and become publicly recognisable Johnny Gash.

    Lee’s insightful descriptions of her identity offer a great commentary to the visual representation of the physical process of transition. We catch a glimpse of the dreams and the tradition that motivated and inspired Lee to create Misstar. And ultimately we observe Lee revel in who she is and what she does.

    Playing with Gender, Love, Hope and a keen Desire to find where they

    artist biography

    Title: A: Gender, video excerpt from a DVD performance
    A bold new performance, A:Gender delves deep into one of the last remaining taboos in our society. Boys can be girls. Girls can be boys. Men can be women. Women can be men. Or can they?
    ‘When I don’t fit ‘man’ and I don’t fit ‘woman’, it’s like all these holes start appearing…’
    Conceived by the Manchester based queer performance artist, Joey Hateley, A:Gender takes a long, hard, and sometimes uncomfortable, look at our notions of gender. A:Gender daringly mixes up drag/queer photography, videography, performance poetry, academia and science to rip up our notions of gender and start again.

    Ane Lan (Norway)

    ane lan

    artist biography

    Title: Ane Lan, video
    The video and performance work conceived by Norwegian artist Ane Lan is based on living portraits, short performances that interpret the domestic and personal condition of History; the interior life of common men that, being out of proportion with the universal dimension, rests in painful resignation. The setting, alternately pop, naïf, ordinary, or looking like a doll-house, is only apparently ironic. The harsh contrast of colours signifies the extraneousness which Ane Lan stages by means of transvestitism. Her docile characters create portraits of silence, of extraneousness, of incongruity, but also of an icy political verdict. Innocence veined in melancholy is intended as a conscious return to a childish perception of the world.

    Title: All Quiet on the Western Front, 2005

    This work explores the changing face of identity when one is exposed to a greater cultural hegemony, it is illustrated through the simplistic device of eating food. In the work on the left/east side I can be seen eating a traditional indian meal, salt is taken at the beginning of the meal and I begin to eat with only my right hand (my family are muslims), no drink is taken until the meal is finished. On the right/western side a napkin is laid on my lap and I commence my meal by swallowing a large amount of beer, halfway through the meal I burp quite loudly and once again near the end. On the table on the eastern side is placed a jar of olive oil, its counterpart on the west is a jar of salted preserved lemons, how can these two elements come together to harmoniously communicate? Can they ever? For most of the duration of the film, both myselves studiously ignore each other but every now and then their eyes meet or when one is engaged in their food, the other observes himself. I make no commentary or observations within this text, I merely present multiple facets of complex problems.

    . Ruben James Preston (UK)

    artist biography
    Remembering (4:40) (2005)

    The piece addresses the issues of remembrance in the human consciousness, in particular how an inanimate material can be the vehicle for a very deep sense of remembrance, loss and change. In the work the simple item of a chair is raised to iconic level by the significance it holds in the character’s life. The chair is a symbol of much hope and aspiration as well as hard work toil and commitment. A commitment which came to an end as life needed to move forward. But the questions that hang in the air are where does the future lie when the leap of faith is made and where will new faith and hope be found when the traditional vessels have failed to supply the hopes, desires and security which were sought after. The chair as a piece of timber embodies something of these remembrances and points to the personal journey for meaning and purpose in the human quest. The piece presents us with the letting of in the ordained ministry in the search for creativity and self fulfilment.

    Dana Levy met Franz during her stay in Austria. He invited her to his countryside home, inherited from his family. There, she discovered boxes of old family photos, Nazi swastikas. Being third generation of the Holocaust, she felt threat, anger, and fear. The movie reflects the way the artist tries to overcome her mixed emotions. The past slowly gives way to the present moment, and to the developing friendship with Franz, despite history. The music is by Die Linzer Philharmonic, conducted by artist Hannes Langeder. The orchestra players are all non professional. The result is an eerie out of tune classical music.

    artist’s biography

    Title of work:
    How the Music Surprises an Unprepared Listener
    2006, 24 seconds

    “How the Music Surprises an Unprepared Listener” is a funny and playful homage to music by Joseph Haydn, in particular to his Symphony nr. 94 (“Surprise”). The work makes part of the One Liner Videos I & II, a collection of very short videos (5-12s, not counting title screens), for showcasing on informal occasions. The videos actually explore the socializing potential of multimedia mobile devices such as Portable Media Centers. These videos are intended to function as jokes in the flow of a natural conversation. I showed them a number of times up to now, most times while meeting new people – they always get a laugh. I made them using simple equipment: a digital fotocamera Fuji F10, a Tablet PC HP1100, Windows Movie Maker, and some home-made software for sound and music. I usually show them on my Samsung YH-999 Portable Media Center. Although based on simple non-verbal humor, they are inspired by one-liners by famous stand-up comedians Rodney Dangerfield and Henny Youngman. The other source of inspiration was a paper by Thomas Veatch “A Theory of Humor”, published in “Humor – an International Journal for Humor Research”, in 1998. The videos usually play on the contrast of a serious/artsy title and completely off-the-wall or childish content. I firmly believe that extremely short humorous works, fun and playful, easy to understand, up to the point and without any sort of self-pity, should be the true artistic form for our time. The possibility that the artist might carry his/her portfolio on a pocket device (like Portable Media Center, iPod Video, Pocket PC, or a Smartphone) and showcase works any time and anywhere, brings the contemporary art out of formal art galleries into everyday social life.

    Softly engaged
    2006, 6:00

    Softly Engaged is a journey through a three-dimensional environment based on the earth’s orography and the inner and outer surfaces of the human body. We were researching some of the relationship between the plasticity of both of these living beings.
    The shapes of the inner human body and the surface of the earth have some patterns in
    common, patterns that we also find in the topography of cities. Those patterns generate
    abstract forms which are manipulated in combination with relaxing music. It also represents a military battle where the target is unknown and where you cannot see the
    enemy. Soft sound frequencies counterbalance the supposed urgency.

    Eden Machine was created for the Collective Intelligence project ( http://www.mutaforma.com/collective ), a collaborative audio/video remix project with participating artists Angela Huntbach, babel, interno 3, John Parker, Kupidon, Magda Bielesz, Sarawut Chutiwongpeti, C8 and Vera Bighetti. The purpose of Collective Intelligence was to illustrate the possibilities for file-sharing and remixing of audio and video available on the net, and to allow the file-sharing of the newly realized videos according to copyleft logic.

    The project’s theme was “Man and Machine”, specifically the influence of machines on daily life. I chose to interpret this as an ‘Eden Machine’, suggesting both the classic dichotomies of man/machine and science/nature and the coincident cycles of human construction and environmental destruction.

    Title:
    Autarkeia Aggregatum
    2005, 9 min 30 sec.

    Autarkeia Aggregatum is an integrated sound and image composition emphasizing continuous flow and transformation. There are no cuts or splices in the visual aspect of the work; it unfolds instead as a constantly evolving, massed animation of a set of over 11,000 individual points.

    When seeking a title for the piece, I turned to the Monadology ‹ the philosopher Leibniz’s theory of fundamental particles of reality (monads). I appropriated the two words from that work: autarkeia (Greek) for self-sufficiency, and aggregatum (Latin) meaning joined, aggregated. The terms together appropriately suggest an aggregation of the activities of autonomous entities. More subtly, a resonance with Classicism draws me to the words. The resonance is one of an inner fullness of being expressed outwardly in elegant, self-sufficient restraint.

    Resource 14
    2005 – 06 , 5:40

    Resource 14 seeks to bring to our attention some of the more hidden attributes of sand in a multitude of different environments. Through a combination of field recordings/ images and extensive software manipulations of the field recordings and images, Resource 14 portrays in both a macroscopic and microscopic sense, the intimacy as well as dramatic intensity that can be generated by sand in a variety of settings…
    To create the audio component for the work I recorded a handful of sandstone rocks crashing together, sand trodden underfoot, sand trickling and being scraped on a variety of surfaces and small sandstone pebbles rolling along wooden and marble floors. Through manipulating the recordings via software I have also achieved a sense of sand being immersed underwater at various points in the work, even though no water was used in the composition…
    To create the visual component for the work I used images/ photography taken from trips I have made in Australia, the Mid East and the USA between 1993 and 2005 and I then extensively edited the images in a variety of computer based production platforms…
    Basically, I wanted to create a work that brings to our attention the kinds of intimate yet dramatic and colourful gestures produced by sand as a material that lives alongside side us, accompanying our lives…
    The sounds created and images used throughout the work are part of sand, from the sounds made when particles of sand rub and jostle together in dunes, to images of sand underwater, or as it tumbles and scrapes…
    When we were able to both see and hear sand up close, especially when we use a little imagination, I suspect it can be a fulfilling experience…

    2000. 2:30

    This work is the result of many years of collaboration between three artists : Blake Leland, poet ; Woody Braun, musician ; and Carol-Ann Braun, visual artist.

    It is the synthesis of about 20 drafts of an interactive interpretation of a poem, « Irreversibility », read, re-read, brought to music, illustrated, printed out, scanned and animated. Each iteration contributed to the abstraction of the piece, whose individual components became increasingly inter-woven.

    Although audible, the poem is no longer « legible ». Its full content is accessible through its spoken and musical version, in counterpoint to a fast forward / rewind of the visuals.

    Sweet Sounds of a Sugar Town: Raw to Refined
    2005, 05:58

    “Sweet Sounds of a Sugar Town” is a hybrid CD/DVD
    produced by the BMRG. The project contains a collection of musical and audio-visual compositions inspired by the soundscapes and rhythms of the Bundaberg Sugar Industry. The “Raw to Refined” movie which is submitted here, is one of eight separate audio-visual compositions, each concentrating on a different aspect of the sugar industry. The DVD as a whole features audio and video recordings of the sugar industry — recorded in the sugar mills, during cane harvesting, during irrigation, and at cane burns — set to music, and accompanied on drums and percussion by local musician Dane Costigan. The project spans the agricultural, industrial, socio-cultural and environmental contexts of the sugar industry. It focuses on the various stages of the sugar product-cycle, but also gives equal weight to the environmental context: to the birds, insects, amphibians and animals that live in the canefields and surrounding areas.

    “Raw to Refined” was shot and recorded in local sugar mills. It is an experimental audio-visual exploration of the industrial context of sugar production, its light, heat, noise and fury. Sound was a primary factor in the development of this project; the soundscapes of the sugar mills are dense, vibrant and complex, a concatenation of hundreds of different processes that combine to create a vast shuddering drone. Interestingly, as sound recordings in the mills continued, it became evident that the drone of the sugar mills maintained a constant pitch, and would lend itself well to musical accompaniment. At the same time as sounds were recorded, work began on composing music to fit with the sounds, and recording imagery to reflect the sonic environment. In this way, “Raw to Refined” emerged as a synthesis of audio and visual material that privileges neither form but rather lets each form influence and commingle with the other.

    Title:
    rupture

    (((sirène))) – « mermaid » in French – is a project that aspires to propel you into a universe where visual effects and sound are unquestionably linked.

    This concept isn’t just about a musical composition nor just a video. It is about the simultaneity between the two, a union where hearing and sight are continuously exchanging. It is important to note that from the start, this piece has always associated sound with visual effects.
    The two elements were created at the same time in order to feel this idea of union. However, it isn’t only designed to spectators, but it is also a useful process of creation for the artist. A line can inspire a melody just like a rhythm can suggest a movement. Hence the thought of this perpetual exchange initiated by the project.

    Regarding the two videos, the body has been, as you may observe, my main material.
    These movements allowed me to hear sounds that I tried to pass on to the computer. In the first piece, each character on the screen corresponds to an instrument. Everything is built upon this movement of beam that we hear in the beginning which matches the bass. The rest of the piece has then grafted itself as to evolve upon this element. As for the second video, we can say it is less systematic; sequences are not perfectly fixed all along the musical piece. Visible fragments of the body product new forms almost abstract in reactivity with sound.
    Finally, I wanted to add that it is a project that I would like to expand during live representations in the future.

    Souvenirs is a collection of short video vignettes written for music by different composers. Odd objects and memorabillia is given to the artist in a box. The artist uses a small mini-camera to manipulate the objects into a false narrative to the music. In this example, the music is written by David Weinstein. The video recording process is completed only one time
    without a script, but the sound is driving the movement and interaction between the objects. A dialogue is created between sound and visual which completes a story that the artist interprets improvisationally as the objects are discovered.

    This work is a synthesis of my interest in the exploration of our human desire to create

    consciousness. The utilization of computing technologies and software to totally create
    media art both as visualization and experience independent of recorded photographic images is an important artifact of our culture and technological instincts. The work is developed around both video and audio material simultaneously. I feel this hybrid work, video and remediated animation sources, is somewhat experimental as plays with the spectre of a human form and the fluid space of cognition.

    against all odds – an interview with phil Collins
    2006, 07.30 min

    I was triggered to use Phil Collins as subject for a video when I heard some story about him divorcing his wife over the phone. I’ve wanted for a while to tackle the subject of divorce and using a pop star as main character eases the simplification of Good and Bad into two well distincted categories, for it is very much the way stars and their actions are presented to us by the media; either Good either Bad, with no nuances. There’s resentment and bitterness in Phil Collins words and also melancholy, very different from what you would expect from a standard “making of” of a video Obviously though, this guy is not Phil Collins, but me. Very undoubtedly me. Phil Collins is just a mask through which I try and let my own views and idiosyncrasies shine. I used to love some of Phil Collins’ songs when I was a kid and this still confuses me. But certain cheesiness has a diabolical appeal and the bits of video I’ve put as intervals in the interview make you laugh but also make you want to sing along. Maybe just to out loud me though. The random act of sadism against the flowers and the goldfish is put there both to enhance this badly hidden violence and to lighten the narrative, creating an enjoyable surreal diversion.

    The soundtrack has been created reducing at the minimum the samples and the elements for the composition: only two different short drum samples have been filtered and combined (hit-hat and bass drum); we followed the evolution of images like in a western movie, in the climax of which there is a sort of “duel”.

    This piece was made with fragments of songs sung by a series of persons who were invited to pick a favourite song and sing it while they heard it through headphones. The point was that the volume had to be high enough so that they wouldn´t hear their own voices. Thus, by loosing control of the result they are doing a sort of translation but, as it happens usually, the singer keeps a sort of illusion about his/her own voice: the sound that they are hearing replaces the real one and works as a sort of mask, giving them the feeling that they are singing like their loved solist or band.

The digital instruments used to create the sounds include both formant wave synthesis (FOF) and frequency modulation synthesis (FM) components.

Thus, it tries to propose, by the construction of a poetic universe, an arborescent and universal vision of the human being.

Sound relates directly to the movements and structural patterns contained in the videos.

    The title and initial idea comes from furious Sid Vicious’ performance of the song «My
    Way».Specific spitful way of singing evokes track of rebellion but yet lack of stranght to
    change anything. It, usually, happens in everyday life. Everything depends on how and where we are raised, conscious and unconscious consequences of our education, political climate, tradition, religion, social and historical context, familly relations… What we were, what we wanted to be and what we became… Further, how we deal with our inhibitions, with more or less success and failures in life, the way we choose, way which was imposed by context of life… My generation in Croatia grown up as good Tito’s pioneers. The word and the meaning of the word we have learned during iniciation at the first day of elementary school.
    Evey letter meant affirmative word: P – being honest, I – sincere, O – daring, N – imperturbable, I – truthloving, R – diligent.
    That was optimistic time of our childhood when was expected to fallow these ideals. Also,we had dreams about future, about what we want to be, what we want to do… But, personal stories destroy common ideals from the childhood. We, often, turn into opposites not even knowing how and when it happened. Although, we struggle sometimes but often can’t struggle enough against our determinate way.
