Liquidator

Liquidator

2010 • 8 min • Netherlands
A project making innovative use of existing archive images of Willy Mullens’ silent film Haarlem (1922). The original film shows the city in straightforward shots and camera movements. Due to deterioration these images changed in a dramatic way. In the adaption Karel Doing zooms in on these effects with the aid of digital techniques like optical flow and morphing. Michal Osowski collaborated on the project with sound that is directely linked to the image, he used the changes in density of the film to control complex filters and distortion effects.
Palindrome Series

Palindrome Series

2013 • 18 min
Double screen series of 5 films. All of them constructed as a palindrome; a sequence of elements which appear the same when perceived both forwards and backwards. The films are all made with ostensibly useless materials; paper cut-outs, artificial hair, discarded negatives, old newspapers. They are constructed in the form of the palindrome; a sequence of elements which appear the same when perceived both forwards and backwards. These films are at once accurate visual representations of complex formulas and playful exercises in style.

By using plants, mud and salt in conjunction with alternative photochemistry, images are 'grown' on motion picture film. What at first glance is perceived as abstract turns out to be a concrete precipitation from phenomena that surround us in everyday life. The 'aliveness' of the images is underlined by Andrea Szigetvári's evocative sound-design.
Dandelion

Dandelion

2018 • 2 min
A couple of years ago I have discovered new possibilities for the creation of images on film-emulsion by using the internal chemistry of plants. This technique is a combination of photograms and chemigrams and because of the lack of an accurate term I have named this method 'phytogram'. I have worked with this idea in my back garden, using available plants and weeds. Dandelions turned out yield particularly good results. This short film is entirely dedicated to the power and beauty of this humble plant.
The Mulch Spider’s Dream

The Mulch Spider’s Dream

2018 • 14 min • United Kingdom
In 1974 Thomas Nagel published his famous essay "What is it like to be a bat?" arguing that there is a specific mental state to each organism. Besides his critique toward the materialist theory of mind, the paper also explores the differences between human consciousness and the awareness of bats. According to Nagel subjectivity can not be shared. However, cinema might be a tool to do exactly that; sharing a lived experience of another creature. This film attempts to kindle the vision of a spider by using experimental phytochemistry.

A Patriot of These Woods

2025 • 10 min • Netherlands
A Patriot of These Woods is a film inspired by the novel The Baron in the Trees by Italo Calvino. Calvino’s book tells the adventure of a boy who climbs up a tree to spend the rest of his life inhabiting an arboreal kingdom. He dives into the vegetal world, undertaking his own journey into the trees around him using his body as a metaphorical soldier who defends the trees and plants that grow around him. An otherwise concealed world opens up revealing the symbiotic relationship between humans and plants. A hybrid creature emerges, partially plant, partially human, their bodies merged, their thoughts processes entangled. These woods respect no borders.
