| | general info We were continuing with formats constantly slipping in-between specific medias. Architectural space has been among the most sophisticated themes to follow in the visual arts recently and has thus so far had marginal role in Estonia. 1+1=1: audio-video-architecture focuses on art aiming to transmit spacial experience through trickier means (sound, dia-projections, interventions, text, video and film). The site of happening is this time chosen particularly to form a dialogue with our interests. The building of Museum of Occupations is made according to the project of young architects (Siiri Valner, Indrek Peil and Tomomo Hayashi). It is one of the first public buildings in Tallinn inspired by the idea of fluid space. We aimed at a loosely set thread of ideas moving from sound installations and videoworks with the background in musique concrete through the fixations of desires frosen in the “film architecture” to specific objects for specific space. We got a line drawn from the classics of Estonian proto conceptualism to the birthplaces of mid-eighties metaphysical paintings by Mari Kurismaa. The guest of the evening was Cevdet Erek who works with the conceptual dimensions of sound in the electronic music studio of Istambul Technical University and participated with a sound installation "Content" at the last Istanbul Biennial (together with Emre Erkal).
