Resistance(s), Lowave
This DVD compilation includes eight films and videos from Middle Eastern and North African artists. It's a
panorama of contemporary experimental creativity from this region of the world. As international travellers,
these filmmakers have forged together their identities out of the different cultures that they've encountered
through periods of migration and exile. Using images to lead the narrative, each artist succeeds in raising
fundamental questions relating to humanity, politics and aesthetics. Lowave is an independent DVD label
with the objective of discovering and promoting contemporary film and video art. Its ambition is to create a
new marketplace for the work of cutting-edge artists and filmmakers, under recognized by the traditional
distribution channels, by making them accessible to the public via the DVD format. With DVD,
experimental film can
finally find an audience beyond the film festival circuit.
· Anabela Angelovska was born in Hildesheim, Germany in 1974. She presently lives and works as an
artist in Hamburg where she studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, and obtained an MA degree in Visual
Communication, majoring in film, media philosophy and scenarios of artistic practice where she also
obtained a post-graduate diploma in Visual Communication. In 2001 she co-founded
www.filmmedianet.net for film, internet, literature and music projects and is member/curator of the
artist-run-space
Hinterconti in Hamburg.
"Searching
For The LOST Station"
The film came about in the context of the project
"Lebensreformbewegungen”* (Life Reforms) as part of a
collaboration with the group “ A Not closer defined artist group from Hamburg”. The presentation poses the
question about the relationship between „off“ and „on“ culture and what possibilities, privileges and traps
exist
in independent, alternative projects. Or, more simply: what is different when we
do it our own way?
*“Lebensreformbewegungen” are various movements from the early twentieth century in Germany
(anarchist, nudist, vegetarians and such like), actually all those who wished to escape from the system
at
the time.

Nation of Satan: Transforma Video
and Live
Recording
of the Second
Album
SATANIC
WERMACHT II
The most brutal, monstrous and aggressive sound system is the basis of this avant-garde or better said,
extra avant-garde demo that is without comprise or tenderness, scrupulously taking no prisoners. This
is the statement of both the artists, in this way crushing the differences between generations and the
media
which separates them.
