Rumpus
Angela McArthur (UK)
Rumpus is a cinematic VR film made in collaboration with the BBC. It follows a modern-day Eurydice as she searches in London's clubland underworld for Orpheus. Visually decadent and thematically magical, the film’s imagery is counterpointed with a form of sonic voyeurism and ambiguity in sound-image synchresis.
PRESSURE
Julian Pixel Schmiederer (AT), Gregor Franz (AT), Johannes Rass (AT), Lara Rabitsch (AT)
The movie is a mirror of modern society where uniqueness is demonized, where striving for freedom is something uncommon and where chasing your dreams is not cool anymore. In a society like this it´s hard for people to identify themselves, because we are taught not to be different. We are always trying to push our psychological limits to the edge, just to do what others think is good for us. The film is dealing with these issues and looks at them from an artistic perspective.
Peer
Liu Kexu (CN), Ye YiChen (CN), Zheng Jiang (CN), Dong Geng (CN), Wenjie Liang (CN)
Peer is a work based on exploration, which uses symbolic snooping movements to explore unusual images in the real world. By looking through a tubular structure, the undefined view causes people’s desire to snoop. The mechanical structure inside the black box rotates the screen to the corresponding location based on the visitor’s position. At the same time, the film images of the six pipelines share the same theme: the multifaceted nature of human beings in society.
