(An)notations of the Countryside

by Surroundings Lab

Surroundings Lab, in collaboration with Kunsthalle Exnergasse, are hosting an informal workshop and screening at Zukunftshof that focuses on the cinematic exploration of "countryside" as critical engagement with rural landscape transformation. The collaborative format, which aims to invite more exchange, collaboration and experimentation, is aimed at landscape architects, architects, filmmakers, photographers, artists, archaeologists, writers and scientists, as well as anyone interested in the sensory experience of the ecological present, past and future of our environment.

The event focuses on (an)notations: Experiments of notation and the exploration of notational tools to document the values of landscapes as they are experienced and sensed in time, sound and movement and emerging  through an act of curation. Annotations of interesting findings and concepts made in the margins of ongoing art projects, research papers, or design proposals. In short, the event intends to share ongoing work that can inspire and be enriched by the comments of peers.

Full outdoor shot of a small fire burning in the ground. The fire is of a simple wooden frame, a scaffold burning. Flames are rising from the fire, and the smoke is visible. The ground is a dark brown/grey dirt. A pile of dried leaves and organic matter surrounds the fire. A brick wall is behind the fire pit, in a light tan/beige color. The text "malda už Lauryn" is visible at the top of the image, and "a prayer for Lauryn" is written at the bottom. The overall impression is of a melancholic or ritualistic scene, lit by the firelight. The colors are muted and the style evocative of vintage or an older kind of photography.
