Video Okrožnica / Circular is a simple animation of spinning circle. A preloader is familiar to all computer and Internet users. The aim of the spinning circle animation is to inform the user that certain process is taking place in the background even though the result is not yet visible. If the circle is spinning for too long, we become nervous and even angry. The endlessly spinning circle could be compared to the slowness of bureaucratic procedures and the powerlessness of those who are waiting. Continuous rotation is symbolizing the flow of time, as well as being caught in a loop. The shape of the circle is the shape of the letter o. Inside the rotating circle the words starting with the letter o (in Slovene language) are appearing and disappearing. At first sight random words turns out to be related to life choices and situations of refugees and asylum seekers who are waiting for their application for international protection to be solved. Will their endless circle of waiting ever stop? (Source: Vesna Bukovec)
