Thomas Mank erinnert mit seinen Elementarteilfotocollagen an die Beschleunigung des bildlichen Reproduktionsprozesses durch Fotografie und Film, indem er ein Bild in einzelne, von der Wahrnehmungsfähigkeit des Auges bestimmte Elemente zerlegt. Er untersucht Fotografie als technisches mittel und rückt damit ihre besondere Eigenschaft, die „technische Reproduzierbarkeit“ ins Blickfeld. Thomas Mank zeigt damit, dass Fotografie nicht nur ein künstlerisches, sondern auch in hohem Maße ein technisches Phänomen ist. Thomas Manks Collage in der Ausstellung liegt das Motiv des Wasserstrudels zugrunde. Durch die Teilung des Motivs in kleinste Einheiten findet eine Entfremdung zwischen Betrachter und Motiv statt, die ein Ergebnis des analytischen Umgangs mit dem Bild ist. Umgekehrt aber entwickelt Thomas Mank daraus eine vom Motiv unabhängige, autonome Ästhetik. Er projiziert das Nacheinander des Films als Nebeneinander auf die Fläche. Damit macht er eine weitere, die Fotografie bestimmende Eigenschaft deutlich: Motiv und Fläche.

"The Pressures of the Text integrates direct address, invented languages, ideographic subtitles, sign language, and simultaneous translation to investigate the feel and form of sense, the shifting boundaries between meaning and meaninglessness. A parody of art/critspeak, educational instruction, gothic narrative, and pornography..."

SpiritMatters (1984, 6 min.) is a silent monologue on the simultaneous perception of space and time. The film was constructed without a camera by writing directly on clear celluloid, and then "translated" by refilming the resulting strips on a light table so that they appear as "subtitles" beneath the original inscription. The film functions as both process and object-an interactive experiment in reading, writing, and seeing.
"Rose's work continues to push at the boundaries of perception. Unlike "The man who could not see far enough," which rhapsodizes the fusion of vision with space, "SpiritMatters" celebrates and interrogates a seeing beyond time, offering an almost comic structural metaphor for our inability to imagine death." Thelma Hayek, "The Abyss of Becoming"

Excerpt from the DVD "Expanded Celluloid, Extended Phonograph" (Balloon and Needle, 2008)
by Lee Hangjun (Experimental Filmmaker) and Hong Chulki (Noise Improviser) from South Korea
Advance Praise for ECEP
It is in the spirit of an experience and experiment that Hang Jun Lee's "The Cracked Share" must be viewed. Seized in moments of visual detachment during periods of emotional contact, these images are oxidized residues of fixed light and chemical elements of transformed from living organisms. No plastic expression can ever be more than a residue of the experience and yet, the residue is the recognition of the experience, loss permeates the work and yet somehow the experience endures, recalling the event more or less clearly, like the undisturbed ashes of an object consumed by flames. The recognition of this object, so little representative and so fragile, speaks to us of this artist's isolation. "The Cracked Share" is quite wonderfully dense and visceral in nature ... it looks as though the work has been doubly manipulated organically and digitally, yet the work still retain its organic nature through its alchemical orientation...the sense of visual rhythm is well paced and the appropriated footage of the Astronauts / Pornographic actor /Horse in "The Cracked Share" is wonderfully imaginative and fluid...an ocular alkahest"

I have been waiting for more than 20 years for those who create music and video just like Lee Hangjun and Hong Chulki. Sound and video are eventually mere data. It is impossible for me to believe in the piece of music or the visual work if it doesn't start from this harsh reality because the problem lies in its start. Accordingly, Lee Hangjun and Hong Chulki's work exposes this starting point as it is. They confront and challenge the problem at this point of departure in audio and video. Otomo Yoshihide
