27. 2021. My researches lead to real mammoth project. 25 hours video footage implicated to 4 hours movie. Thus I decided to bring out three episodes with a special topic for each. I shot the last interview with the elusive French filmmaker and researcher Chloé Galibert-Laîné, whose activities can be hasty summarized in experimental non-fiction essay film, videographic research and online ethnography. Due to the global situation, a online version of an interview was my choice. Even though the image and sound quality are as they are, one can say it has its own audiovisual aesthetics…
September 18. 2020.
The essay in the context of documentary is a widely undiscussed field of research, which some colleagues and I will transfer into a conference in 2021. Happy to announce the start of the project pretty soon: the grants are ours !
May 01. 2019. Got grants for shooting my upcoming documentary "Le deuxième printemps/The second spring", which I will begin this year in Algiers. This time, I will travel with a great cinematographer. Will give me some flexibility I really missed recently. The script development is almost finished.
April 26. 2019. Just filmed my interview with the great writer and filmmaker Eduard Schreiber. He is the first and last essay filmmaker from the GDR. Together with his wife Regine Kühn, he also realised the film "The dream of Trotzky", in which both analyse the beginning of psychoanalysis in Russia. It is a documentation about the role Leo Trotzky's in that, and further, a story about the student of Carl-Gustav Jung Sabina Spielrein, which was killed by the Nazis. Great movie!
February 24. 2019. Preparing a lecture in Russia - the abstract: Considering recent online activities such as video essays, predominantly introduced by the filmmaker and professional cutter Kevin B. Lee, which are related to the essay film or at least use the essayism as a method of audiovisual expression, the virtual desk or rather the desktop, became a geographical venue for artistic and intellectual reflection. In the tradition of the hybrid documentary and essay film, the physical desk has always been this place of examination. The audiovisual lecture will illuminate the desk as a dispositive for intensified contemplation, and further, try to carve out specifics in relation to the dramaturgy. February 23. 2019. Interview online on denkzeit.net about Made in Algeria. Click January 19. 2019. Deep in the jungle of research. Regarding the essayism and the criticism, how to compare the relation or ratio of analytical potential and progress? There is a need of a new definition of linearity in the age of hybrid moving images, I guess… October 06. 2018. Got an sound interview with Norbert Möslang, the sound artist of many films from Peter Liechti. This interview form was created for my upcoming film. The interview as a practice of acquisition of knowledge, will be questioned and defragmented. July 30. 2018.Some impressions of the post production of my new film, which is in fact a real time production due to its essayistic and organic format. July 24. 2018. Great shooting with Gerd Roscher in Odderade. This 68 influenced filmmaker and former student of Adorno and Horkheimer, has an incredible aura and a lot of to say. Happy to have had a perfect discussion within my upcoming film "The Essay". June 03. 2018. Preparation for the 32. Film- und Fernsehwissenschaftliches Kolloquium (FFK) in Potsdam begins, a colloquium for the latest researches and results in film studies. Together with fabulous fellow members including Frédérique Dubois (www.netzdoku.org), we will try to reflect about a new and extended understanding of cinematic and artistic liberty in interaction with scientific procedures.

a great evening, what a great person: thanks to Kevin B.
Lee!
May 02. 2017. Together with Clemens v. Wedemeyer, I have the honor to get the video essayist Kevin B. Lee as my guest within the frame of the next temporal disorder-episode. Until April 2017, Lee was the first fellow at the Harun Farocki-archive Berlin. The event will take place in the GFZK Leipzig, the 16th of may 2017.April 28. 2017. What
a good experience: During two days, together with the
students of Clemens v. Wedemeyer I tried to explore the
essay as a form. Through his historic origins, picked up
later
on by Adorno, we focussed on day two on the
video essay. Hoping to have succeeded in providing some
useful information for these smart students, I already
prepare myself for the third round of TEMPORAL DISORDER
with Kevin B. Lee!!! <<< LINK

April 9. 2017. Happy to prepare the upcoming Temporal Disorder-episode, in which we will discuss the temporal structure of linearity, which is possibly only a point of view. Caspar Stracke's neo-psychedelic film essay presents speculative concepts like an idea of the Deleuzian philosopher Manuel DeLanda, whose book 'A thousand years of nonlinear history" has been a huge interdisziplinary success all over the sciences. redux/time/OUT OF JOINT is built in plateaus as well in an esthetic manner as a textual meaning. A movie about a reversal time understanding, which is moreover self referential in its representation. www.temporaldisorder.com March 11. 2016. This summer semester, I will engage myself in the genre of 'Amateur film', which is often also called 'Home movie'. Being a long time ridiculed as a kind of hobby for geeks, only practiced for passion and enjoyment but not for business, at least it is worth to reconsider this definition. Together with Prof. Christina Natlacen, I want to explore that widely unexplored and foremost underestimated field, which turned in the last years into a quite popular platform for artistic expression. LINK
January 06. 2016. Together with Clemens von Wedemeyer, I will curate a film series called "Temporal Disorder", which is a collaboration with the GFZK Leipzig. The first screening and artist talk will take place the 11th of January with the Mexican artist/filmmaker Mauricio Guillén, who will present his 16mm-movie "Avenida Progreso“ (2012) > LINK
January 05. 2016. The movie MADE IN ALGERIA" was selected for the renowned festival Rencontres Internationales (March 14 - 17 in Paris. Gaîté Lyrique) > LINKDecember 18. 2016. Good news: I got sponsorship for the writing of the script "Vom Versuch einer Kritik" from the "Kulturstiftung Sachsen".
November 09. 2016. Lecture
of my research project "Essayismus - ein Tool zur Kritik im
Zeitalter der hybriden Bewegtbildformate" at the Institut
für Kunstwissenschaft – Filmwissenschaft (IKFK / ZeMKI) in
Bremen (D).
October 27. 2016.
October 17. 2016. Next solo exhibition is fixed: The title "Cinéma mémoire" is a reference to the the function of remembering; thus the works are dealing with memory pictures from the past which are brought in a cinematic way into a relation to real-time processing of the affected data.August 19. 2016. The
project
website "essai-critique" is online: www.essaicritique.com.
As well as general informations about the essay since its
transfer into the moving image, there will be also a
documentation about the emergence and progress of the movie
"Vom Versuch einer Kritik". What is nowadays
the
significance of the essayism in regard to cinema and
contemporary art? As an initial suspicion, essayism as a
method can be equated to critic. Representation thus
appears as the focal point in which widely divergent
forms of critique and their heterogeneous cultures
lend themselves to comparative discussion. That`s
why the movie will explore through the (film) essay as a
form those untrodden paths of a field, which overcome media
forms and sciences.

entry, which is written to a French-Algerian citizen.
