==Experimental film==
"In all of the former Yugoslavia experimental film almost unfailingly derived from the tradition of the so-called amateur film, whose home ground consisted in the numerous cinema clubs (kino klub) that flourished in all major cities of the former federation. The line separating amateur film from experimental film is thus unclear not only due to the subjectivity of judgment, but also because the former term in its most widely accepted meaning refers to the production conditions, while the latter term designates the aspirations, procedures, and effects of a specific cinematic expression. Furthermore, the terms experimental film and its more or less synonymous avant-garde film never really took hold in our current or former countries; thus the Croatian (or more specifically the Zagreb) school tried to shape new theories and practices, such as “antifilm”, while the Belgrade school struggled with the even looser term of “alternative film”." (from <i>This is All Film!</i> catalogue)

===Artists===
; avant-garde
* Esther Johnson with [[Vane Bor]] and Josip Slavenski, '''Belgrade's Mysteries''' (Les Mysteres de Belgarde, 1930s). Homage to Pearl White. During her European tour American pianist Esther Johnson visited Belgrade. Via the composer Josip Slavenski she gets in touch with Vane Bor and the three of them shoot her film project - film note(s) about Belgarde as one of the capitals. Slavenski and Bor are the founders of Filmska kulturna zadruga that "produces" the film; the camera is rented from the Aeroclub while Vane Bor serves as the guide around the town. The film is crisscross of distinctive, oblique visions of the city of an outsider and of maverick connoisseur. Belgrade's Mysteries later turns into real mystery as after the premiere the copy disappears and is never found again.

==Sound art==
===Artists===
[[Katalin Ladik]]

===Works===
* At the 'October '71' exhibition at [[Skc|Skc Gallery]], Marina Abramovic created a public sound art piece, the first of its kind in Yugoslavia, ''Birds Twittering in the Tree'', which consisted of a loudspeaker perched in a tree outside SKC that projected the sounds of birds chirping. Inside she created a series of sound boxes with the sounds of Bleeting(sic), Moaning, and A Shot. She created a number of ''Sound Spaces'' in 1972, which were meant to provoke shock in the audience. For one of her Sound Spaces, sounds of the body seemed to inhabit open empty room punctuated by light beams and surrounded by white drapes. Video and sound were recorded and immediately played back so that the recorded activity was of equal importance to the live action. Abramovic’s sound pieces created for 'October '72' imitated the destruction of buildings while she aimed floodlights at the actual standing building of the SKC. ''Airport Sound Environment'' featured the voice of an airport announcer. ''Circular Space'' was the echo of a wire strung through the space.
