Video Screening in Bangkok and Shanghai
Intelligence co-operation is about showing works to as many places and audiences as possible. This diary project by Stefania Galegati is the reflection of the magic of human co-operation in 25 locations world wide, on the same day with innumberable faces. Arthub presents the screenings in Bangkok and Shanghai.

The video (1 hour long, comprised of 7 shorter videos) is a rhythmic editing of daily film shot over the last 2 years. For 4 years Stefania has carried a little camera with her, always ready to shoot the craziest situations she runs into by chance, or to capture a reality that later will become something else entirely through editing. People working out, wedding pictures, collective myths, an elephant walking down the street, fat people eating huge sandwiches, rich people eating at openings, the stadium, the baseball game, the Italian-American religious procession in east Harlem, jazz musicians, naked people on the beach, kids diving from a tall pole, beach fires in Africa, old people walking, old people dancing, a horse carried by a vespa, the list is ongoing.
On the 24th of January 2009 the video will be presented in different places all around the world. In each place, people that Stefania has met in the last few years, are going to organize the video’s screening in a variety of ways, showing it in bars, galleries, restaurants or even their own homes.
