A random seventies newsreel from the artists’ hometown in Soviet Siberia forms the substratum for a relentless exploration of representational and narrative strategies: without ever collapsing into a ‘story’ or abstraction, the film recants the relationship between analogue and digital, surface and reference, sense and experience, past and present. –Thomas Zummer

Movie
By intertwining different visual layers, the artists introduce pluralities in processing sensory information. They engage in new forms of visualisation in the configuration of possible worlds. With escape goat they want the work to create itself 'on its own terms': unsteady and strange, untethered to familiar orders of mediated perception.

jason from the lake is an imaginary, nomadic electro-industrial band that has existed forever, yet debuted live in 2024 at the legendary Bad Bonn Kilbi Festival. Emerging from the Siberian experimental noise scene of the 90s, their performances weave dense electro soundscapes with visuals, creating immersive night rituals, haunting collages and visceral audiovisual experiences that bridge memory and technology.

Taking as a starting point an artist's own paintings, long lost, and recasting what a work can be with interventions of digital post-cinematic processes, a minor piece of damage explores the space between the vanished place of referential origin and its re-presentation as a cinematic 'artefact'.
