Description of idea
Describe your idea and concept of your work in relation to the festival outlines:
SIDE-VISOR- ACTIVATION OF PERIPHERY VISION.
Work is based on way of perception of surrounding and displacement of angle of observation trough engagement of periphery vision.
Glasses are made based on idea of muddy, wryness and lies which are we constantly subjected to and effort to deflect look of them. Half truth is better of untruth, magnified and selective serve of information. Nothing is white or black. I can only indicate on party-colored answers with opening horizon wider then this unilateral and blinded.
What kind of communication approach do you use?
Indirect, but very direct.
What are in your opinion concrete benefits to the society because of your communication?
Spending time with, beautiful things that you miss every day thanks to television, and other brain wash things.
What did you personally learn from creating your submitted work?
I learned that the idea behind this work, works! I made grate art thanks of invention side visor, trough engagement of periphery vision.
Why is your work, GOOD communication WORK?
Because of nature of invention behind the video. Side visor glasses makes aggressive deflection from 'realty' in to realty. Spending some time with things that surrounds us; things that we miss by being blinded with 'realty' that is sold to us is pretty good communication.
Where and how do you intent do implement your work?
Implementation trough video tests, and talking with people about this topic.
Did your intervention had an effect on other Media. If yes, describe the effect? (Has other media reported on it- how? Were you able to change other media with your work- how?)

Dear Darko,
let me comment your submitted project with few words.
Your project has strong cultural discourse and is very original in formal way.
I appreciate your experimental approach that gives new and fresh view on how can we shoot movies or videos. The inventive side visor is great indirect formal way of expressing your own ideas and statements by just letting people in your surrounding talk without giving your direct comments.
I like the topic you choose, however with this way of shooting you could capture any topic in any surrounding, don't be afraid of being radical as this format is allowing you to be kind of "under-covered". The variability is endless, just be aware that this format could become boring after some time because the methodology is quite strict.
Good luck.

I like your approach- but it comes down to a particular filmic/directorial approach: it's a kind of rhetorical device, in that it could be applied to any discussion, I would be very interested in how this could be placed within a larger narrative so that some kind of closure, or development could happen, including some kind of context for the discussions that are being developed...
