RFI: Video artist who tours with The Fall?

In Tel Aviv I saw a video art performance and talked to one of the artists after - he said that he does his video art show with The Fall (either during or as an opening act - I wasn't clear on this.) I think his name was Sefi, but I didn't get any more information from him about it before he split. The show was actually quite good. I've never seen The Fall and I'm not especially a fan, but I thought maybe some Fall fans might know something about this guy.

not Sefi, but Safi Sniper (don't know any more than that, unfortunately)

Ah, awesome. The show I saw was him and one other artist overlaying short video loops. The loops all had original sound and there was a really nice rhythm to the whole thing. Much better than a lot of video art I've seen.

Ah, it was The Wonderful World of Ron & Safy

No shit, I met him in Jerusalem and then I went to see him DJ one night at some club in TLV and he played a new Fall track. Didn't know he was a video artist though, we did talk about sound recording.
