Juraj Rattaj — Lay-off

Juraj’s seemingly trivial dialogue about vacation time serves as a background for a broader conflict of the contemporary perception of the concept of time.

Diana Cencer Garafová — Vertical Limit

How can we explore our whole world? Can we rely on our senses as their capabilities of evaluating and storing information are limited? And what if we become a “victim” of an illusion? Will it sharpen our senses or, on the contrary, will we start doubting them? What is the role of art and its form of presentation when it comes to exploring the world? Can art and its various forms be an illusion that helps us understand (or, on the contrary, blur) our world and its laws?

He sees radioart more like procedural art, rather than object art.
