Description : The artist's appropriation of old Soviet films, processed by means of computer technologies, finds similarity to a fantastic vision of an alien. It is possible to imagine a story about the humanization of aliens through implantation of memorable samples of the best of Soviet cinema, while the memory-holder removes both irony and affection. The mechanical vision (of computer, robot or alien) ideally carries out the operation of destylisation, cleaning off the time patina and transforming old tapes into an amazing stream of beautiful, faultlessly abstract and modern pictures free of any associations.
