Berlin-based artist Florian Zeyfang presents "Transmission Attempts 
Relocated". The short animation video "Transmission Attempts", 
literally over-drawing mediated examples on social uprising and the 
following (cultural) reactions, works with the tension between the 
political and aesthetic functions of film and video. In a new 
installation in Vector Gallery in Iasi/Romania, the video, originally 
conceived in New York, is placed in a relation to places where some 
of its sources originate. "The pathos of ãTransmission Attemptsä 
derives less from distance than from presence; it comes less from the 
insufficiency of critique, in the face of its totalizing object, than 
from a basic ambivalence regarding the ideologies that motivate 
critique in the first place" (Bennett Simpson, 2004). In Iasi, the 
mediated myth is linked back to one of its most recent mis-en-scnes.
