A couple of years ago I participated a video collaboration between artists from all over the world, inspired by the Surrealist creation method, The Exquisite Corpse Video Project (ECVP). The best thing about it was the people I connected with. One of them was the talented Swedish artist Anders Weberg, who works with video, sound, new media and installations, primarily concerned with identity. In the beginning of 2011 Anders invited artists to interpret “Expose Yourself” in front of a mobile phone camera and send it to him. 18 people from 11 different countries answered him. I was one of them. My video was shot in front of a mirror, using a flash light and a mobile phone. Anders re-interpreted all the interpretations and added himself to the mixture. The result is very nice, I think. Check it out…

Since then (this was 1995) it has become much easier to make videos in the comfort of your own home, and I still like to play around with it once in a while. On ArtReview I met some people who were doing a project that sounded like fun…
The Exquisite Corpse Video Project (ECVP) is a unique video collaboration of 36 artists from 16 countries, inspired by the Surrealist invention, the “Exquisite Corpse”. The project is coordinated by the Brazilian video-artist Kika Nicolela.
Using the semi-blind, sequential method of the surrealists’ game, ECVP participants create video art in response to the final ten seconds of the previous member’s work. Each member is asked to incorporate these seconds into their piece, creating transitions as they please, until everyone’s vision is threaded together into an instigating final “corpse.”
ECVP Screenings and exhibitions have been taking place in various countries since June, such as Sweeden, USA, Greece, Canada, Brazil, Australia and South Africa. A book about the project will be released in the first semester of 2009.
An interview with some of the project members can be read here.
