TV Events

1991 • 4 min • France

This film is composed of two films: the first is a refilming of an excerpt of news from a French television channel at the end of 1989, with reports on the events in Romania and Berlin, partially obstructed by the residue of a Super 8 film that someone had given me. The second is made up of unused sequences from the film CHARLOTTE, the baby a symbol of the two "protest movements" demanding more democracy.

Silver~Rose「#1 Fin」

1991 • 30 min • Japan

The main songs are culled from live performances at Yokohama 7th AVENUE (横浜7thアベニュー) and Namba ROCKETS (難波ロケッツ), presented in a bootleg-ish sonic quality and heavily edited (crazy-ass video effects all around). The tape also features a bunch of live scenes after the listed tracks are over, with "TWONIGHT" and "OCTOBER" playing in the background.

Silver~Rose「Itsutsu no BARA no Gensou 」

1991 • 24 min • Japan

Presented in a bootleg-ish sonic quality and heavily edited (crazy-ass video effects all around), いつつのバラの幻想 has a similar vibe to Silver~Rose #1 Fin, although the band had already became a quintet by this time. First three songs are presented entirely live. "GAMER DOLL" and "TIME INSIDE~時間の中へ~" are your typical vkei live PV. No ending credits.

Looking for a Happy Ending

Meriaux Freres

1991 • 26 min

The Mériaux shop is the temple/theatre of hardware. It is the most sacred expression of this activity, at least to my eyes, which are fixed on the memory I have of my last visit, when, as a novice handyman, I threw some of my savings across the counter, which was mysteriously separated from the rest of the place by a worn plexiglass screen. I made this film in order to share this fragment of my intimate possessions.
