STATEMENT Where are you, Mother of all torments of 'Slovene video'? The deeper I dig, explore and reflect, the more clearly I see that the principal, fundamental torment of 'Slovene video' is - in my opinion - nothing more and nothing less than the torment of bad form, of poor X-terior or, in other words, the torment of a phrase, grimace, expression, face - yes, this is the source, spring, the beginning; this is where, harmoniously and without exception, all other 'Slovene' torments, pains and woes originate. But perhaps it would be better to say that the main, fundamental torment of 'Slovene video' is nothing but the suffering born of the restraint provoked by another human being, of our suffocation and yearning for air in the tight, narrow, rigid picture which others have of us. Maybe... Mr. Ferdy
Durke - 1937/99 Born on 17 July 1956 in Maribor.

He has been a cameraman, editor and director of numerous commercial, music and art videos. He ran the Brut video studio at Beethovnova Street in Ljubljana, where many video artists realised their works. In 1991 he moved to the Netherlands, where he has been engaged in video production.

VIDEOGRAPHY:
Art video
AVTOP A metamorphosis of the image of the artist's own body and face by means of electronic manipulation. In the forefront is the eye which acquires a double function of looking: the eye is looking and is being looked at.
LOVE LETTER A playful love confession. Due to the scratching of the image and sound, and by photomontage of real images and graphic details the effect of visual 'correspondence' is obtained.
MAX AVTORSKA
VIDEO KASETA (NEO VIDEO) - MAX PERSONAL VIDEO CASSETTE The compilation of art, music and commercial videos: Video art (anti-commercial), Raw (Laibach), Mora, Miladojka Youneed, Lačni Franz, Love Letter, Videosex, Avtop, Unsere pop Grupe (Laibach) and GBH.
MORA / DREAMLESS
The video artist starts to dream of travelling into the West while working on a commercial. The dreams turn into a black-and-white nightmare of scenes of socialist bureaucracy and rituals and are intertwined by colourful scenes and symbols of capitalism, such as Coca-Cola, limousine, Playboy. The reality and the dreams are visually separated, but connected by means of constant manipulation through sound and by a repeating image of an attractive blonde.
SCRATCH VIDEO
A demonstration
of scratch video techniques by means of a witty comparison between a videomaker
from the 'undeveloped', yet creative East and video artists from the market
economies of the West.
