behind the scenes



the system is only as strong as its weakest link:
A highly complex system logistically as well as mechanically enabling replacing a whole runway over a period of almost 1 year - 15 meters every night- bit by bit - at the second busiest airport in Europe Frankfurt/germany - when the asphalt has to dry 2 h before the first plane lands - and the building site in its traditional understanding - remains unnoticed ............

The Slow Motion Landscape

The fascination for a landscape within the existing measurable timebased reality - overtaking the function of an archiving device recording scenarios and creating a new method of archiving an historical event.

The Moments of cristallisation - visualizing the moments of archiving a timebased event. Vizualizing particlar moments in time.

A string with pressure moving seeminglessly through an ice cube - similarly a boat will find its way through frozen water - or glaciers being moved. But leaving traces behind.

By reusing those exisiting natural laws - exploring them on different scales - creating an own subtle slowly changing parallel slow motion landscape expressed in varios different scenarios and moments.

The Slow Motion Landscape - interrupted by a passing through ship - going through the process of 2 systems confronting each other on the level of materiality - timber & ice.

The collapsing of one system triggering an initiating progress of an ice based archive - like a seedbank of frozen seeds - when in a 20 year cycle the plant itself has to grow another baby seed, which again will be frozen - in order to keep the archive updated.

The timebased Slow Motion Landscape embedded in the Self-Updating- Archive - expressing an historical event through imagery.
