The ever-evolving film series brings into question contemporary states of "post"—being, post-discipline, post-irony, post-net, post-shitpost. Open Secret is actively opposed to the passivity associated with the infinite scroll of the digital landcsape.

What happens when cinema touches the internet and the internet touches cinema?

And music by:
NO BRIDE
No Bride, alias of Boorloo singer/songwriter Hannah Pillinger, is a spacious noir-pop outfit, merging atmospheric crystalline vocals, spoken word and ambient keys. No Bride presents an ethereal cinematic sound hovering delicately in space.

BEN AGUERO
Prolific producer of glitch and jazz infused ambient electronic music, host of RTRFM’s Subterranea, and one quarter of the formidable A/V rap project Myriad Sun, Ben Aguero presents an unmissable set of danceable sonic textures.
