    Alexandre Siqueira (Rio de Janeiro,1980) splits his life between France and Portugal. His passion for the illusion of movement began at the age of six. Alexandre was browsing through a science book on his father’s desk when he noticed a sequence of photograms depicting a boxing fight that had been used to illustrate the astonishing world of animation. Since 1999, Alexandre has directed and collaborated in several short animated films, such as Sopa Fria, Odisseia nas Imagens and Kali, the Little Vampire by Regina Pessoa. Alexandre graduated from the la Poudrière school, in France, with Journey to the Sunflowers Field, which was premiered at Animateka 2010 and selected at several festivals. Besides short films, Alexandre has already collaborated in feature films, TV animated series, directed some commissioned films and music videos and published several illustrations works.

    Bret Battey’s “Estuaries” series of audiovisual compositions (2016-22) and two additional installations were based in part on the exploration of unique algorithmic approaches.His OptiNelder video filter visualises mathematical optimisation processes applied to video or mathematical “terrains”. His Nodewebba software links mathematical-feedback pattern generators to help create emergent musical behaviours. Battey discusses how these tools were part of his investigation of his idea of “fluid audiovisual counterpoint” and finding fruitful intertwining of “event and object” thinking and “continuum, texture and gesture” thinking in combining music and image.
