Online Bodies:


Accelerated Images. Bodies in Transition.




“Online Bodies seeks to explore the manifestation of the body in virtual spaces. The film consists of seven short non-causal parts, each showing a different angle on the online body. The film passes along bodies in transition: a deepfaked porn actor, a 3D model that wishes to be reproduced, a group of genetically modified humans that live inside an alien, four friends discussing cyborg modifications, a body that cannot get up an escalator. They are each short peeks into the massive stream of online imagery and its social impact. The project looks at the physical consequences of online potential and its reverse, for better or for worse.” — Mischa Dols

“The New Film is born out of a viral encounter between the human body, cinema worlds and internet cultures. When science fiction meets speculative theory.” — Contour Biennale Belgium
