OSH short edit (3.30 mins) 4.5 MB
Osh is derived from a fertility ritual of the ancient Selk'nam culture. For over 10,000 years the Selk'nam inhabited the southernmost point Tierra del Fuego in Chile. They maintained elaborate rituals emboding metaphysical characters and devising situations that lasted up to 6 months.

Gines Olivares filmed this ancient ritual re-enacted by Adrian Fisher, Luna Montenegro and Felipe Luch in a Berlin urban, site specific enviroment. The film examines the seduction and eroticism of technology through rituals of communication mediated by domestic actions. Live footage is edited with with post recorded actions inducing the viewer to be released into different time spaces, dissolving reality reconstituting relations. Osh is a meditation on the mechanics of eroticism, all things big and small.

The film by mmmmm; Osh (18 mins) was made working in a former Berlin power station and the surrounding district of Kreuzburg. It was later edited in London by Gines Olivares and mmmmm with an original soundtrack.
