Within the context of Pan Rooms collective exhibition organised by Pantogrator Gallery – La Pan, elmur.net presents "Am I what I see or I see what I am?", a collection of 5 creative videos which, without using a word, talk about identity and the influence of images in our ability to interpret everyday reality. The views of 5 authors from South Africa, Russia, Taiwan, Germany and Spain, are combined to build a conversation in images; a visual dialogue that invites us to reflect from unique perspectives about what we see, what we are & what we want to be.

From idea to video in less than 4 hours, this was the mission that students from the University of Lleida  had to accomplish within the workshop that ELMUR gave to a group of future audio-visual communication’s professionals.

Focus of the workshop was “creative video and public space” with the aim to reflect on communication practices in public space and facilitate tools and strategies to enhance student’s ability to face and solve all kinds of creative challenges within this field.  A selection of ELMUR.NET  videos was used to conduct the visual image analysis and debate session. During the second ”hands on session”, two elmur.net video-creatives: Lupe Capell & Sara Boldú, coached students to create an original creative video in a record time. The resulting videos have been on shown at ELMUR Lleida permanent public screen during X-mas and New Year’s time. 

One more year, selected ELMUR.NET videos will participate at ESPACIO ENTER FESTIVAL due to be celebrated in Santa Cruz de Tenerife (ES) from November 29th until December the 1st 2013.

ESPACIO ENTER is an international meeting of all sectors related to art, digital culture and ideas that allow us to design the future of technological innovation.
