              Semana Santa de Sevilla- Holy Week in Seville [1993]. Processional music, electroacoustic music, and "cante jondo" converge; color and black and white; the topical point of view and the particular point of view. A visual "Fiesta" seasoned with verses from the "Poema del cante Jondo", by F.G. Lorca. 3 Mostra de Vídeo Independent de Barcelona 1996.

              Using a fragment of 1970's porn, nail polish and bleach, the filmmaker has worked frame by frame upon the film body. This erasure creates a new pornography, a film in which the woman exists only as an empty, animated hole.

              By subjecting fragments from the Akira Kurosawa's film Rashomon to a mirror effect, Provost creates a hallucinatory scene of a woman's reverse chrysalis into an imploding butterfly. This physical audiovisual experience produces skewed reflections upon Love, its lyrical monstrosities, and a wounded act of disappearance.

              A 70-year old man living in a remote part of Scotland has been obsessed with 'trying to really understand' Darwin's book for many years. Alongside this passion, he's been constantly working on small inventions for making his life easier. The film investigates someone profoundly interested in human beings, but who has decided to live separately from the majority of them.

              From a quote from Jane Bowles, this video-poem presents a collage of some aspects of contemporary life, people moving around, traces of inhumanity. Music by Brian Eno. Kalin's short video works, which use literary quotations as starting points, function both as visual poems and as alternative music videos. With their astute conjunctions of image, music and text, these tapes respond to issues of sexuality and human interaction in the 1990s, more than a decade into the AIDS crisis. 2 Mostra de Vídeo Independent de Barcelona 1994.

              Spot made by this former member of Grand Fury. This highly stylized and deftly edited provocation features a cast of performers, diverse in national origin, who recite a litany of statements meant to challenge viewers' secure notions of national identity. Kalin asserts that bodies are very real battlegrounds, territories that are contested and controlled by the same political forces that determine borders or set national policies. Nation was created as part of "TRANS-VOICES", an international multi-media public art project that was conceived to reflect a broad spectrum of cultural diversity — national, racial, and ethnic — that characterizes both France and America today. Created by seven American and seven French artists, the video spots operate as trans-cultural investigations, questioning the validity of national identity, exploring the origins of cultural ideology, and charging the ethics of government entities. The spots communicate messages about the fundamental social, political, economic and ecological shifts that mark the close of the 20th century.
