From 2008 till 2010, and in 2013 again, I worked for the international video project City One Minutes: video portraits of cities in 24 minutes in which each minute represents one hour of the day. City One Minutes was an initiative of The One Minutes Foundation in Amsterdam. It had its premiere at the World Expo 2010 in Shanghai.
Together with local artists and filmmakers I realized City One Minutes in Medellín (Colombia), Johannesburg (South Africa), Port-au-Prince (Haïti), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and Amman (Jordan). See pictures. In these cities I worked as coordinator, curator, filmer and editor. I also contributed with my own one minute videos to the portraits of Amsterdam (Netherlands), Beijing (China), Havana (Cuba) and Lisbon (Portugal).
