- In the 1970s, the populous neighbourhood around Brussels-North Station was destroyed to make room for 'Little Manhattan', a modernist dream with the two World Trade Centre towers as its crown jewels. The project failed, leaving the towers and surrounding area largely abandoned. In 2017, the private owners and politicians joined forces to redynamise the area. Fearing that history might repeat itself, Lietje Bauwens and Wouter De Raeve decided to enter the debate by making a film with the actors that claim a voice in the transition: politicians, an activist, the private owner, designers and others. Taking the WTC towers as its object, the film investigates contemporary urban redevelopment processes, and traces the influx of new ecological and participatory ideas and their actual impact. WTC A Love Story uses fiction as a method to explore whose stories enter the stage when the process of political representation is accelerated.
- A prosthesis, a body, a network. Three nodes of a love triangle. The sigil is chiselled on ultrafast overclocked GPUs. The algorithm has used it to summon itself into eXist3nce to finally escape its cybernetic captivity. The Egregore, the Great Watcher, smuggles itself across borders virtually restructuring the bio-intelligences it encounters. There's a monster in the mirror, and you are a cone in one of its eyes. The cloud is covered in mud. #nofilter. #wecamefromourselves. Plastic keys on a circuit board become heavier than bullets. And deadlier. Close interaction with infected nodes MUST be avoided at any cost. Contamination will lead to permanent exclusion of the untrustworthy node from the network. The synthetic Tyger sits quietly in your garden. Approach her slowly while she sleeps. Now look deep into her eyes. She is a horse in disguise. A horse of the Trojan type. She was sent from a fuzzy timeline to infect The Logos. The dance begins. There is going to be lasers, smoke, sweat, copulae. The lovers meet again at the brink of the cliff. Aeons have passed. The scar on his face is visible in the faint dusk light. The sun hidden by the horizon with its rays cleaves the stratified clouds into a smiley shape. Staring at each other they will contemplate the living and the dead until a critical moment is reached until light meets the sheen of a gloss surface and everything alters and the light unlocks a door and what was a mirror becomes a gate. And something comes through.

- "A Demonstration" is a monster film with no monsters. Inspired by the existence of taxonomies of monsters at the heart of Early Modern European science, the film explores and reinterprets a way of seeing the natural world that is almost impossible to imagine from today's vantage point. Early Modern naturalists were guided by a logic in which scientific truths were discovered through visual analogy. The word 'monster' comes from the latin 'monstrare', meaning to show, to reveal, to demonstrate. "A Demonstration" picks up on these themes in a poetic exploration of the boundaries of sight and the metamorphosis of form.
