A new comment.

Ok. So I made a comment this friday, but I was in a hurry so I did not have time to finish it.

I do have a lot on my mind about my project and it feels alright. I do have a plan, but I'm not sure that I will follow it. Probably not, but it is good to have a plan though. Anyway, as I said, I went to my spot last friday and it was a good day to make borders. I was standing there for a while at first, try to "feel" my in-between-place. I don't know if I acctually felt it, at least I tried. I was not sure HOW to make borders, but I found a stick and I used it as a tool. I almost felt like I was a part of a white, unwritten piece of paper and the stick was MY pen to make borders with. I've been thinking about that during the weekend and that thought has been the start of my plan.

So. My project USED to be one unwritten, white piece of paper, but now it is bordered with a "pencil". This is the GROUND. And there will be buildings on THAT ground. What buldings; I'm not sure of that yet. That is where the TEENS comes in. I have e-mailed two teachers at two different types of schools here in Gothenburg. I want to hear what teens have to say, what their dreams are when it comes to a youth-place-to-hang-out. I want the place to be the key between the teens and society and I want them to be a part of my work. Mr J is also a BIG part in my project. He has one thought of the place, I'm not ready to share it yet. I have to think about it a bit and meet J a few more times. He is important to me and I almost "feel" him in this work. His thoughts are in my mind. I have also tried to draw a few pics of my place and what it COULD look like. Since I have explaind earlier; I'm gonna build a smaller model of my place. Hopefully, at least, that is my plan.

SVT-PLAY.se, what a good thing. And this time I am gonna use that as a source, or as a refrence in this comment. At the time SVT-PLAY.se has a program which name is "Hemliga svenska rum" (Secret swedish rooms). The program is and shows abanoded places around Sweden, almost like an in between space, and as a viewer you'll follow a team who explore, investigate and research these places. One part is only 12 minutes long, so it is worth seeing the three parts which are on the internet at:

On the 16:th of october SVT also shows a documentary film which is called "In the white room" and the film is made by Bengt Bok. Bok has met Gunnel Wåhlstrand who paints "look alike" paintings of allready taken photos (the paintings seems amazing!). So, if you don't have plans on friday, do not miss this. I think it will be interesting.

See you tomorrow!
