Message

Cruelties spoken with fabulous halo. After conflicts between Ch. L. (Producer of „Two and ½ men“) and main character C. Sheen, Sheen denunciates Lorre publicly by video-message. Something like that we know from pupits or private accusations. The selected footage is underscored by sacral sound. The word-meanig is ridiculous, mean, universal and dangerous.

The nest

With this work I’ll get the sitcom Situation, which transforms the reality by itself, back into a daily and personal situation.
It´s a question about humor and everyday experiences in the juxtaposition of an already modified sitcom situation.
“The Nest” has, like a sitcom, a storyline and ongoing characters in a comedic drama. The situation is that of a couple at their new home, with dreams and hopes – and everyday life – but they remain invisible until short before the End of the Video.
A voice from the off tells us their story. The laughter is delayed irritating – or non-existent. The sentences are not explicitly attributed to a person and text elements from a existing sitcom are also part of “The Nest”.

Allright then.

A woman talks sentences to a man who can’t be seen about Romy Schneider in different poses to the voice hastily. A moment of language and speechlessness – and a tribute to a scene from the film “The things of life” (C. Sautet / 1970).
