KLEX Festival Screening: From Remembering to Rising
(Präsentation einer Kurzfilmauswahl durch die Festivalleiterin Siew-Wai Kok)
Das Kuala Lumpur Experimental Film and Video Festival (KLEX) ist ein junges, von Künstlern organisiertes DIY Festival in Malaysia. Die Filmklasse wurde auf dem KLEX Festival 2011 mit mehreren Filmprogrammen vorgestellt; jetzt freuen wir uns, die Festivalleiterin Siew-Wai Kok an der HBK begrüßen zu können.
Zum Programm:
This is a special selected KLEX program that consists of video works from Malaysia, Indonesia and Japan, literally or indirectly exploring the themes of nostalgia, recollection, memory and internal dialogues.
The human brain is the most fundamental agent of archiving. Like it or not, it records everything every single moment. After the recording, some materials are remained while others are discarded, and then some are twisted, created (out of the absence of a desired memory) and re-created (perhaps because it’s too painful?). Memories are stored in different forms: image, sound, smell… that eventually provokes emotions. What is “real”? What we “see”, or “experience”, or what we “remember”? Sometimes, the brain records a journey with rapidly changing images and sensations. In those split seconds, which image and sensation will remain in our consciousness and enforce new actions?
