The programme “Dreaming with Open Eyes” shows 19 different
positions of artists mostly working in Germany. Their short
films are little poems with a dream-like quality that is freed
from our everyday life. They are arranged like the stages of
an ambivalent dream: oscillating between an infantile playfulness,
the strength of a heterotopic, repetitive architecture,
dreamscapes embedded in a romanticized nature or nightmarish
states showing the collapse of humanity and science. And each of
these very unique moments holds the promise to be watched again,
while a dream is lost in its pure linearity after we wake up…

Mercedes GLK
We directed an online music video for the Mercedes GLK. It is based on objects on the roadside transforming into abstract, angular shapes as the car drives by. The interaction was designed and implemented in Flash by Jung von Matt/next in Hamburg, who were also the agency on the project. The 3d cg was produced by the exceptional Realise Studios who built and scripted the entire cityscape in Houdini and rendered it with Mantra PBR. The car configurator was produced by Glassworks and Mackevision.
Length: ca. 3-6 min
