from here...
…the world looks very different.
We mainly look at other countries out of two view points:
Either we set the country in relationship to us or at least look from the view point of our history and our interests towards it.
Or we look at a certain event.
Rarely we have a look at the world as people in this country will have.
How do the see the world? Which countries do they recognise in which way? Who is important for them?
On a one year travel from the Caspian Sea across Central and East Asia to Japan I had more than 50 interviews in 16 different languages. Out of these interviews and the field recordings of the travel I created a multi channel sound installation.
