RIDDLE OF THE BEAST
At the circus, in the safety of our seats, we watch the elephant’s bulk coaxed into intemperate feats. As the lights come up we realize that we never left the velveteen plush of the movie house. The workshops will reach deeply into the substance of the friendly pachyderm to discover at least two electrical conductors that are the source of our affection for this beast. Products of the 19th century, incandescent light and its offspring, the movie projector, were given a voice in the 1920’s by optical sound. These revolutionary technologies may be languishing on the threshold of extinction but will be celebrated and preserved as echoes and afterimages of the machine age resonating in the vitality of 21st century consciousness.

WORM is a Rotterdam-based artists collective, a venue and workspace for music, film and new media. Born under the stars of punk, dada, fluxus, situationism and futurism, WORM has grown to a tenacious organisation that combines the 'Do-It-Yourself' mentality of its ancestors with ultra-pragmatism and good bookkeeping. The output of WORM is film, radio, concerts, performances, web projects, installations, an array of tactile media and a 24/7 webstation. WORM focusses on OpenSource, re-cycled material, Superuse, seriousness and fun.
