NOTES AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Notes: Included in the compilation The Starting Point Can Be Zero (edited by T. Nekvindová, S. Sobotovičová) - videoart on architecture, space and urbanism, published in 2011 by the Research Centre of Academy of Fine Arts in Prague (VVP AVU) in cooperation with Divus. The compilation The Starting Point Can Be Zero is the first volume of VIDA series of VVP AVU and was publically screened for the first time in Oct 18th 2010 at the festival Four Days In Motion (Praha, ÚLUV, 36 Národní street).

Adopted text on the work: Kryštof Pešek lets the camera be controlled by a device reacting to stimuli from its environment. This is why - as he states in his closing remarks on his work - he doesn't consider himself to be the author of the work. The film deals with what it futilely tries to avoid: for the attempt at "anti-direction" necessarily fails - a point of departure must be determined, even absence is a testimony and detachment can be beautiful.
