The main element of the video is a symbol for threat, the unexpected, that which we cannot overcome but by delivering ourselves to the immediate experience. With past being a continuous background that reminds us of our frailty, the perfect aspect of the future can only be imagined, yet it can never be attained as such. This is why the perfect aspect of the future can only be composed of the anti-narrative, non-lineal fragments that bind our past experiences together. © 2010, Sabin Bors http://www.sabinbors.com/Autography-I http://www.sabinbors.com/following/sabinbors.com/Autography-I Thu, 02 Jun 2011 10:26:09 +0000 Sabin Bors 1534317 Full Title: Autography I Type of Work: experimental film Year: 2010 Direction / Concept: Sabin Borș Editing: Sabin Borș Music: Archive - Old Artist, used here for non-commercial purposes. __________ Autography I is an experimental movie that relates to the anti-narrative and fragmented perception of both our memories and introspections, and future projections of ourselves. Following the somehow unexpected break-up of two friends, to whom this short visual is dedicated, the movie tries to shift the accent away from a lineal interpretation of the past, while nevertheless preserving its continuous aspect. While past is continuous as an inner state of experience, introspections and our relation with the past are always distorted and fragmentarized, the same as with the future projections of how we might overcome the burdens of the past. © 2010, Sabin Bors http://www.sabinbors.com/Transit http://www.sabinbors.com/following/sabinbors.com/Transit Thu, 02 Jun 2011 10:25:13 +0000 Sabin Bors 1534315 Full Title: Transit Type of Work: experimental film Year: 2010 Direction / Concept: Sabin Borș Editing: Sabin Borș Music: Thom Yorke - Black Swan (Vogel Bonus Beat Eraser remix), used here for non-commercial purposes. __________ Transit is a short visual/experimental movie intended to be a transient introspection marked by interference, jamming, disturbances in the perceptive field, sliding cuts in the cursive line of a passage, a severing of lineal relations and chronicles.

Tristes Tropiques refers to the memoirs of Claude Levi-Strauss, a travelogue infused with philosophical reflections. Dystopia (eng.) / Dystopie (fr.) refers to anti-utopias, to visions of a futuristic society, in which society has degraded into a repressive, controlled state, a totalitarian form of government, the lack of individual freedoms and expressions, characterized by mass poverty for its inhabitants (Wiki). Dystropiques refer here to both a dystopic place and its tropic or tropological expression, a certain use of images relating to a certain movement, a tendency to move towards a given/set direction, a tropism. Tristes Dystropiques is a quick glance at certain residual constructions in the urban profile of Romanian socialist and post-socialist districts. Tristes means sad, sorrowful, a glum prospect, the bleak landscape of our cities… This short movie/experimental approach has been screened at the Assemblages II Festival (16-18 July 2010). © 2010, Sabin Bors http://www.sabinbors.com/Digihumanoid-Assemblage http://www.sabinbors.com/following/sabinbors.com/Digihumanoid-Assemblage Thu, 02 Jun 2011 10:23:00 +0000 Sabin Bors 1534303 Full Title: Digihumanoid Assemblage Type of Work: visual Year: 2010 Direction / Concept: Sabin Borș Editing: Sabin Borș Music: Nize5ive & Pitch N Sulphur - The Cell (Collective Rec., 2008), used here for non-commercial purposes. __________ Digihumanoid Assemblage is a very short visual about the digital re-synthetization of man, the assemblage of man out of digital elements, and the peril of digital over-charge.

It is a short visual about the way digital elements encode the images, and the way they archive all our memories. It is a reversed scenario of how an image is digitally encrypted. In making this short visual, I started from a single image, because I wanted to emphasize the way our memories live of single, fragmented images, pieces that we try to put together. At the same time, it tries to show the way an image is made of many other images, the way we cannot access our memories but by putting together small pieces that constitute our memory as a whole. Not lastly, this short visual is dedicated to someone very dear, for times when words need to be silent.
