REMAKE MILLENIUM
A funky parody about the computers trying to process the year 2000. Using this technological glitch as a metaphor for a culture in recline, Arthur and Marilouise Kroker spin out in a late 20th Century crash. Not only computers but music, movies, food and even love tumble into a remake loop.

FAST WALL
Fast Wall is Lewis Cohen's video anthem for the Digital Generation. In the mutant visuals of Fast Wall as much as in the memetic flesh of sonic soundings, all that's solid quickly melts into the liquid of digital reality. Fire-eating, dry-ice visions of the present: terminal signs of slow suicide for a fast wall.
