Movie
All people on Earth produce carbon dioxide and shoot short videos. We do the same. We drop such short videos, shot on a smartphone, into the archive. From that array, we render an endless random video stream. This stream can never be repeated, each time it presents a new version of the life.

Survey
Everything there seemed strange. We felt like people from another time and space, with completely different concerns and expectations.
2022
Borders
Suspended by C D Friedrich we used to go there to film that crop of the crazy view over Děčín having no idea what it was for. We started in the middle of February. Russian officials condemned the `West` in warmongering and disinformation, going to attack Ukraine one week later.

Lecture
Everybody knows Aristotle's aphorism: “Time either does not exist at all or barely exists”. But it seems that we don't have time now to think about time anymore. Stop. This thought itself is about time, and we have denoted it by the word Now. How long does it take to read it in such a way that word Now matches its meaning?
2021
Release
We found this cassette in Anton's old suitcase abandoned in a cold garage in Minsk for more than ten years. On it, we discovered the master tape of an album, which Anton had been producing for almost two decades since the early nineties. The album was finally mixed to this cassette in 2010 and titled "Billion Yellow Birds." But now the tape crumbles off; the cassette was damaged by freeze and moisture.

Fire
A&M install a sound vibration in space, extracting fan wave interference from electronic monochords, turning time and space into a place for an event. What can sound do? Sound manifests being. Reflecting on the future, it returns to us, waiting on stumps, bunks, and suitcases for the return of Proserpine.
2021
Expedition
New World is a performative expedition revealed by Marika and Anton during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis in 2020 in uninhabited badlands. In relevant circumstances, artists discovered the virtual labyrinth in the realm of the dead, where they were laying the tunnel communication.

Ball is God, or God as a Ball? is a multimedia installation, artists employ a basketball found in the river for media manipulations to demonstrate the cognitive seam between various appearances (vision and sound) of the object.
2019
Room
Video projected on the wall captures the projection of the text on the wall in the same room: “A thought turns into a digital code. The code transforms into the light, then reflects from the object’s surface. Refracted light, being recoded again. Then, after a while, it is released into a wall of the room.”

Throat
The loudspeaker was installed as an intervention in the ZKM museum’s corridor and worked for two weeks. Every fifteen minutes, it reproduced the phrase: “We use your ears and your eyes now!” Fifteen minutes is the time for a visitor to pass this corridor from one segment of the museum to another.
2018
Installation
Leaving Moscow in the fall of 2018 we buried the rest of our belongings (that could not fit in the plane) in a field at the Moscow River source. After six months, we dug them up and mounted them as a weight for the strings’ tension.
2019
Poverty
Medium is the electronic version of the Pythagorean monochord. It is extremely simple — a tree branch, two stones, two nails, steel string, and a contact microphone. It is made anew every time, immediately prior to the Aliens' performance. It is the perfect tool for installing sound impregnated with overtones. The Medium and the sound from it constitute a singular art object, the installation of which in space takes place using special performative practice.
2018
(Music)
Sound performance, viewed from the perspective of a contemporary art spectator unexpectedly turns out to be a provider of raw musicality. We call it (Music) in brackets.
2018
Strings
All personal possession of the artists were bounded together and suspended on the six strings as a weight for the tension. The strings were the drivers for the processual performing of the sounds collected and selected by the artists, especially for the event. Six suspended objects formed the playground for performative procedure lasted 6 hours until the installation got broken.

Paradise
Music that arose by chance from the fragments of a branch, a stone on a string and an electric organ in the hall of a large tired museum.

Goods
During the Booty Art (Beute Kunst) exhibition, Rabota tried to make the time visible, and these risky experiments led to death so many objects as artists were able to find at the streets of Karlsruhe. Booty Art (Beute Kunst) – the term invented especially for the exhibition at the UND#9 Festival in Karlsruhe, Germany. Thrown away student paintings, plates, exercise bike and two antic chairs from Markus Lupertz waste were found on the streets of Karlsruhe, modified, overpainted and then sold during the exhibition.
