Prix spécial du jury pour le projet "Berliner Fenster", réalisé dans le cadre du concours 2007 du DAAD. La thématique du concours se basait sur une cittation de Goethe :
»Nothing can be compared with the new
life that the discovery of a new country
gives to a thoughtful mind. Although I am
still the same person, I feel that I am in
fact changed to the core.«
Berliner Fenster
envoyé par dubitatif

In this, the City of Juxtaposition, I am not pointing out another. Instead I am offering a method, a mental map, a way to document my
experience in the city, and I hope it is one that will lead to a better understanding of Berlin. The key to successful and sustainable urban environments is positive social interaction.
The more that people are observant and critical of their surroundings the more they will have to add when these interactions take place.
The film makes use of its inherent format, that of the moving picture, to reinforce the idea that windows are typically viewed from a moving
perspective. By shifting the emphasis away from the goal of getting somewhere and re-focusing this moving gaze instead on the idea of "the window", I am simply utilizing the existing
method of perception to come to a different understanding.
Similarly, the still photographs of the walls echo the moment's pause that is required to look at an advertisement, or to notice that the wall is in fact a blank "façade". By extending
this moment I hope to provide a fuller understanding of how and what these walls are and do.
The short captions of text provide insight into my thought process as I were gathering footage, exploring the city, and locating moments of pause. The project is meant to provide a frame
of reference for my relationship with the city over the past 6 months. It is in many ways abstract, yet the subject's familiarity and precise method of description make the project at the
same time quite concrete.
The goal of the project is to spark critical discussion through examining seemingly banal pieces of daily life.
