the Ø of September 2001
the
hyper-metaphor; UK, raising tents
the
hyper-metaphor, UK, raising tents, was completed
during the course of three weeks in October 2000. first one,
then three, and finally ten identical Irish green tents were
set up along an approximately one kilometer stretch on the Airport
Road, the southern highway into Bergen, Norway. shortly thereafter,
on the same stretch of road, work began to expand the road to
a four-lane highway.
the second part of the hyper-metaphor was a catalogue text in
which the discussion (description or presentation) had the form
of an alphabetical listing of over 100 words and concepts. Each
of these words could have pointed out an actualization, direction
or concept of the hyper-metaphor.
 the
third part consisted of a web
diary in which all of the catalog words were further reopened
or explained with between 3 and 60,000 references. this was
due to the fact that the words were made searchable through
the internet medium
here you will find a
map of the site, the
web diary with a searchable catalogue text in the right-hand
column, along with a series of pictures taken towards
the south and towards
the north -- all from the same location and at regular intervals.
