bi weekly short film challenge
A Spark Of An Idea
19.01.23
Ideas have their own schedules, some are fully formed beings ready for the world, while others require simmering, evolving and mutating time until opportunity meets peak soufflé o'clock.
The initial idea popped up during a STEAMlab @ STEAMhouse: Translating rhythms: designing technology for the more-than-human (Workshop facilitator = Anna Nolda Nagele theposthumanist.com) where included within the presentation section was an image from the Biennale:
The idea was inspired by the Refuge for Resurgence by Superflux - a multispecies dining art installation which was part of the Biennale Architettura, La Biennale Di Venezia 2021.
At the time, I wondered what would happen if there was a real multispecies dinner party… what exactly would they eat? And who exactly would still be around to enjoy desert by the time the final course was served?
BWS#02 takes place decades after that dinner party, CONFIT POTATOES is a sort of quick draft sequel to that.

The First Twenty Seconds

Next up there was the INCAS Challenge : Tell a story in 20 seconds. After several dead ends, on 03.10.24 I was reminded of the Key Lime Pie animation... and voilà, the soufflé popped up just a lil bit more!
Here's a snap of that moment via the INCAS Discord Channel:
KEY LIME PIE
In this animated noir, a man's obsession with key lime pie brings him to the brink of insanity and a chance encounter with the grim reaper.

CHEF ROBO:
The way the chefs hat just waits for the robot and then BOOM it attaches to Robo as he walks into it... I thought that was cool :P
