The weak voice of Jæren

Dear Maya
ReplyDeleteYou are very knowledgeable on aspects of bird watching. Therefore you know all the systems that birds relate to. I proposed that you should follow an appearing Jæren seen through new flights and trecks of bird, seen through the eyes of the bird. A little bit how filmaker Arild Osmundsen and is "Driving in Jæren" made him a mentor for the other filmakers. Beeing the one who found the flightways so to speak. You should also check out a project made in the german organized "Shrinking cities" competition, in Sheffield I think. Here the winners followed the flights and landings of birds in a disappearing city landscape. I refered to Bow-Wovs "Made in Tokyo" drawing up its hybrids of architecture and progams, seen from above in a way. You should check it up. Get some more strong input into your project. You know about birdwatching, but you have to drive this to a totaly new position (you can even watch Hitchkocs film once more). I also refered to the film "Into John Malchovich head" which is also such a new way of seeing the obvious.
Charge your search and dramatice it. Study bird biotopes internatioally also - Fly high please. Remember the two young architects who has moved to Vardö, because of their love of watching birds!
