to things came to my mind this week: when i walk through tapiola it feels so from the 50's that i feel that the people don't fit somehow. thats why the whole place seems more like a filmset to me, than a real place. I wsouldn't be surprised by a real person from the 50's would suddenly appear, because its like you've done a timewarp when you are there. I guess these are the keywords I want to start to work with. "filmset" and "timewarp".
I also talked with klari yesterday and she mentioned the idea of an utopia from the old times, which i found really interesting...
