First Field trip - Latvia


My First Field trip out from MoKS.
Yesterday John Grzinich (who is the media artist on site at MoKS) took us (me and Eamon Sprod - who is artist-in- residence at MoKS) to an old Soviet army base.
It was a raining, cold day. We drove from Mooste across the border into Latvia were the base was situated.
Apparently the base was still occupied until 1994, the building were striped and left to decay.


We were also meeting Maksims shentelevs and Kaspar who are member of the Bernurits (collective) a who were driving from their home town Riga, Latvia. The idea was to do some recordings together in a bunker that was on the site.
