.moving pictures experimental garage (.mpeg) is a platform for contemporary video art and experimental film run by Filmische Initiative Leipzig FILZ e.V. It showcases monthly rotating moving image works after dusk in a video display window in Leipzig, Germany, and facilitates cultural participation in public spaces for people of different age groups, backgrounds, and areas of interest.
The website mpeg-art.space serves as the platform’s second home, designed to mirror and digitally extend the physical space in Leipzig. The city’s local time and current light situation is reflected as if on the garage’s blurred window. The work currently on view is shown within a digital simulation of the recessed black space inside the garage. An archive documents all works shown since the project’s inception and includes synopsis, stills and interviews.
The typeface CMM Coda Normalized Proportional was chosen alongside the existing logotype set in Berthold Block Regular to match its softness and proportions.
