Locative virtual artifacts
Originally uploaded by kpata
I realize that the time when all the real world is disappearing is coming closer. And we start replacing the embodied memory of natural creatures, trees, as virtual artifacts into the places to remember.
The picture i took because it felt the same as on the image of trees on the wall where the nature itself with shadows invaded on the unfamiliar material world – on the houses.

It is actually true that as soon as you open eyes and sharpen your senses suddenly a lot of signals appear.
There were some narratives of light some days ago and when i saw today my shadow i started to play with the ideas what were triggered from shadowmen in airport that Anatole had. For some time i played with my own shadow on the wall, then some people passed and i caught them too. Then i continued walking and i noticed the tree-art on the wall. This triggered another thought of the previous narrative i was shortly continuing about recycling imaginary narratives in locations. Then next i noticed the reflections of the tree narratives on ice, and i thought of meta-photography talked by places themselves. On the opposite side of the street i saw that not only there are dark shadows, but there are light shadows too! And some of them are very much like pictograms from anther civilization.

Today i experienced the delayed response phenomenon with locative narratives. There was the snow picture on the car that triggered my embodied knowledge of the duck behind the bars.
There seems also another connection point between these two impressions – the relativeness of the situation. The bars are there or not there depending if i wish so. The Car points to the story in this or another location because it has moved.
Spraying your virtual message

There was a cool workshop where mobile as the tool for virtually spraying in the real places was demonstrated.
This i blog because now it is connected with another snow story picture on the car.
Again, his art is sustainable graffitti. The invisible layers have a short-term duration. But will the place keep the embodied knowledge as part of the artists’ experience?
the story of snow

Some recent pictures have focused my attention on hybridizing the environment with sustainable technologies.
Here is a great example of snow-narrative which can be wiped away or will melt away.
Another thought …if the car moves to another location how does this influence the place? However it is not very likely the driver will NOT wipe his front window clean…

Today i realized why the course narratives are slow to emerge – there is a competing project going on!
This is Olga’s small mobile exercise for the course.

A boring evening ended up with the Masterplan from the Creator intending Peace and Happiness for every Man.
Then i realized that 10 € wishes and 264 € wishes may be different.
I also thought that it does not matter how small scale is the locative input for the place.

The navigation guide in the book ‘Shadow of the wind’ provides a good example how literature is nowadays locatively perceived.
I write this because this is on my opinion one good example of new narrative hybrid tourist-maps that bind imaginary action to locations as it was a real component of places.
First i remembered this because this is a book of importance to me and i think to the one who gave me this book when i work on ecology ideas.
Besides locating artifacts to places, the artifacts and meanings that contextualize artifacts can locate artifacts into totally different places than where they were originally taken or made.
entangled

Environment is full of mutually entangled action-perception possibilities that we can discover only if participating in active exploration of the environment.
Perhaps after some time we will be able of distinguishing sub-cues and one initial perspective of the space might be perceived as multi-dimensional.
Actually this was something we discussed in elephant year ago, but when reading Various Flavours of Coffee i remembered it again. I think it fits with my idea of documenting the hybrid ecology idea emergence.
