Die Kugel des Biestes

a293

A sketch for a new video animation. The title should translate in English as The Sphere of the Beast or The Ball of the Beast. But English does not provide a satisfying replacement for the word Kugel, so we have left it as it is.

Storm and Stress 2: The Flight

FilmlogFilmlogFilmlog was started in 2002 in New York by Dario Solman to record chronologically the development of the multimedia project The Heart of Perspective / the Making of the Film. Over time the project grew and evolved. It is not a single a work anymore, but a chain of correlated and modular multimedia projects that share similar visual language and narratives.

Filmlog serves as a laboratory for developing art projects and all works presented here should be considered sketches. The pieces that are later on used in exhibitions get reassessed, modified, finalized and adapted to the circumstances of exhibition. Filmlog documents the exhibitions and other activities that surround the artwork.

While individual posts on Filmlog are sketches, the website itself is not. Filmlog is a complete work. It is a living and breathing art piece that for more than 20 years has been recording art processes as they germinate from an idea into a concept and then develop gradually into a visual work.

When Filmlog was created the internet used to be a very different kind of place. True to its roots and non-for-profit approach, Filmlog still believes in the free and open internet, owned and run by individuals and multitude, not by a handful of corporations. Filmlog does not link to locked corporate websites (i.e. social media) that create their own opaque and exploitative internets.
Filmlog VideoFilmlog Video Filmlog Video features full length videos made for the Heart of Perspective / the Making of the Film project. Dario Solman PortfolioDario Solman Portfolio The portfolio surveys Dario Solman's art production since its beginnings in the late Nineties, when he started as a painter, went on to be a multimedia artist and finally broke off with the arts to be a filmlogger and a robot / astronaut myth architect.
