From the outside of the Guggenheim Museum, through glass walls, a home video camera records the social activity provoked by an Antonio Tàpies exhibition. An unsettling camera movement gives us these images, accompanied by the soundtrack of "The Critters". 3rd Mostra de Vídeo Independent de Barcelona 1996.

A process of detachment and relativization of the unknown, the different, the uncontrollable, the impact of the strange experience to generate a thought influenced both by the media and memory. 3 Mostra de Vídeo Independent de Barcelona 1996.

El desig d'amplificar la mirada, d'allunyar, de distanciar cada vegada més la capacitat dels nostres ulls a través de diferents tecnologies (binoculars, microscopis, satèl·lits), amaga la voluntat d'acostar-se a les imatges de l'extrema distància, de l'extrem desapego: la mort. Mort en viu, el temps en viu de la imatge electrònica és l'extrema necroscòpia tecnològica regalada a la nostra mirada: la carn es desplega, el desig, la tensió es consumeixen i es descomponen, moment rere moment, "fotograma" a "fotograma". La glaciació temporal del cos de la imatge fotogràfica i cinematogràfica s'obre en el caos del vídeo provocant retorns impredictibles a la vida, una vida feta de llum i de moviment. Les mirades de les diverses guerres han aconseguit el seu camí des del canó del rifle fins als binoculars de la lent de les càmeres: apuntem els nostres ulls, mirem, desitgem, matem, veiem la mort (en viu). El vídeo va ser realitzat per a l'exposició:"Tazio Secchiaroli, the original paparazzo", galeria Photology, Milà.1996.

Slam Dance. 3 Mostra de Vídeo Independent de Barcelona 1996.

Sensible Shoes is a witty collision of fiction and reality, ironically rendered as a multi-textual pastiche of mass media and personal narratives. Adams's fragmented collage is structured on the stream-of-consciousness monologue of an unseen woman, who collapses fantasy and the everyday as she "zaps" the television dial and skims the newspaper. Seamlessly integrating her daydreams of romance with appropriated images of violence, love and consumerism from popular British TV programs and ads, Adams tells the story of how the mass media dictates the construction of personal narratives. Visuals, voiceover and on-screen words are juxtaposed in a tightly edited assemblage of off-air TV imagery, shrewd wordplay and visual puns. The source of the handwritten text that propels the spoken and image-driven narrative is revealed in an ironic twist at the tape's end. 3 Mostra de Vídeo Independent de Barcelona 1996.
