Text videa:
Chcel by som preukázať svoje sociálne cítenie,
chcel by som robiť sociálne umenie.
Chcel by som pomáhať bezdomovcom,
chcel by som im nájsť nové domovy.
Chcel by som, ale oni nechcú.
EN / Lyrics of the video:
I would like to demonstrate my social feeling,
I would like to do social art,
I would like to help the homeless ones,
I would like to find new home for them,
I would like to…but they don’t want.
EN / Lyrics of the video:
We were fixing the kitchen windows this summer, so we dismounted the shutters and scorched off the old paint from the window casing, and in order to prevent the stink and dirt to get inside we covered over the windows with nylon and as the light was flashing and what a light, well, I simply saw it and immediately felt like doing something with it so I started painting with ink my silhouette on it, by beginning with this kneeling silhouette with hands in the air, and after that I sketched in the face and another head and some more hands…and the nylon down there was weighted by an air rifle, don’t know why, so from the inside of the kitchen it looked as if there would be a revolt or something. Like they’ve come over, put the guns down and draw some sort of victorious sign….

Interaktívna prašivka / Interactive Toadstool
2006, 00:40
Text videa:
Keď zoberieš hlavu káčera,
pridáš nos a fúzy Asterixa
a celé to zapichneš do prašivky,
tak máš perfektný interaktívny objekt.
Pretože
keď na to
poklopeš,
tak sa ti
objaví
nečakaný prašivkový
dym dym dym.
EN / Lyrics of the video:
By taking into parts the duck’s head,
by getting out his peak and putting back Asterix’ moustache
and then thrusting it into a toadstool,
you get a perfect interactive object.
Because
Knocking on it
You’ll find out
An unexpected
Toadstool
Smoke smoke smoke.

Diaľkový ovládač / Remote control
2006, 03:10
Text videa:
Bol som na výlete v tuneli, poľnohospodárskom či jakom. A mal som kameru a ďiaľkový ovládač, čo som nikdy nepoužil, tak som skúšal či funguje a či sa dá zapínať a vypínať nahrávanie a jak rýchlo a jak často a jak ďaleko, zapínať, vypínať, červené tlačítko. A keď ma to nudilo, tak som začal robiť to isté NA BICYKLI, a či až na koniec Poľno Hospo Dárskeho Tunela Tunela.
EN / Lyrics of the video:
I went to a trip into the tunnel an agricultural one or something and I had a camera and its remote control which I never used before so I thought to give a try and see if it’s working, if it switches on and off and on the recording and how fast, how often, how far it switches off and on the red button and when that palled on me I started to do the same on a bicycle and to the end of the agricultural tunnel tunnel.

Ale ruky z kindervajec / But the hands from Kinder Eggs
2007, 02:03
Text videa:
Uprostred lesa na peni,
zrobil som inštaláciu.
Peň porastený hubami,
ozdobím kindervajcami.
Ale ruky z kindervajec a huby dakde v lese nezískali záujem umeleckej obce, a preto zháňam iných návštevníkov alebo živočíchov, aby sa prišli pozrieť na moju výstavu. Ale dneska nikto nemá záujem o súčasné umenie, takže po pol hodine hľadania, lebo všetci dakde zdrhli, som prinútil jednu húsenicu, aby sa prišla pozrieť na toto vysoko hodnotné umelecké dielo. Tak tam ležala a čumela a nechápala nič, alebo možno hovorila, že to radšej znič.
EN / Lyrics of the video:
In the middle of the forest on a trunk,
I made up an installation.
I will decorate the fungous trunk
with kinder eggs surprises
But the hands from kinder eggs and the mushrooms out there in the woods didn’t get any attention from the artistic community, that is why I am looking for other kinds of viewers or beings, so they can come and see my show, but today nobody is interested in contemporary art, so after half an hour of searches, because everybody nipped off, I made a cutworm come and see this highly worthy artwork, so it was laying there and staring and was getting nothing, or maybe it was saying:
you better destroy it.
