THE SILENT SYNTHETIC SYMPHONY: A Human-AI Collaboration, 7min., Greece
Directed by Giannakopoulos Efstathios
In a silent environment, artificial intelligence meets the boundless human mind and together they unite their powers to create a music and dance piece of scientific fantasy. The lyrics, composed by a robotic mind simulating the writing style of the great author William Shakespeare, draw upon a poem about Silence and how people perceive it today. The music was composed by a team of music producers, while the words are voiced by the unique, yet artificial, voice of the late English actor, Alan Rickman. Our protagonist performs theatrical dance movements, which constitute his unique way of communication. At times, he manages to harmonize with the space-time and feel tranquility within the silence, while at other times, he faces challenges. Will he, however, emerge unscathed from this enthralling blend of the artificial and the human?

RIOTS VS. TSUNAMIS, 6min., USA
Directed by Robyn Killian
When faced with the wreckage in which several local business owner s life s work, their shops, were set ablaze and reduced to rubble after protests had devolved into riots in the Los Angeles' Melrose District, occasioned by the death of George Floyd, a black man, at the hands of a white police officer in late May 2020, I used the artistic mediums of experimental filmmaking and sound collage to document and express my grief by comparing the effects of two types of disasters, riots and tsunamis.
