 This page is the informal log of my transiency process, in reverse chronological order.

+Before leaving to Bergen i spend a few days at home with my mother. Weather was good, light magical, colours precious. Mothers visits are becoming more frequent and everyone enjoys to have her around. I can have more quiet time to prepare for the travel without any stress. And even read a book.

+Bergen  is a city where the rain is being made... It is a beautiful place but the rain!!!! Even my raincoat gave up after a day and a half and i ended up soaking wet constantly... Working with Eisa on "Host" is now a lot more relaxing. The piece holds it self. And Eisa is finding more and more freedom to perform. What an amazing artist that pushes her self to the limits every single time.

+Reading R.Solmnit "A field guide to getting lost". It is a good book to read in the unknown city. I could quote almost every second page. So many nice things written in a honest and personal way.

+days in the row of space rental. This time in completely different setting. First of all we had a full house. Two guests in the tower, 30 people in the space, catering group in the kitchen, Ingrid having some of her meetings at FoAM, Jura coming and going with the bunch of her friends. It was buzzing... I kept an close eye on everyone to monitor the levels of happiness. Even with so many people and activities in space it is possible to work on different things at the same time. I've noticed that the good communication is vital. Every morning or evening i would inform everyone on what is happening where and what is there to be expected.
+In the second place this time the hosting of the space most of the days i shared with our amazing Jura and with helping hand of Ingrid. This setting and not having to cook made a huge differents. I had no back pain and could read a book quietly during the time in the studio. However on the days that the tasks where not shared i could not concentrate on anything more serious. Constantly keeping an eye on the guests is sometimes very boring and tiring.

+This year i'm most visible person at FoAM studio. Therefor many demands and proposals comes directly to me. People get very surprised when i refuse to do something. Trying to explain what Doing Nothing means for us and why are we doing it is not easy. Mostly after the conversation they are convinced that what they are doing is very much related to what we are (not)doing and i must do something to collaborate in one or other way on their project too. When i explain that i might but not now because i'm also in transiency and will concentrate only on the activities that are related to that. They still don't understand why i wouldn't i answer their questionairs, come to their meetings and so on... I think doing nothing or lying fallow needs as much discipline ( or even more) as doing something. It is very easy to give in and loos track of what is important.
