from the begining I knew that my project will be connected with name of Tapiola, which comes from the god of water and woods - Tapio. I liked this myth which very suits with Tapiola description ''garden city''. Then I was looking an ethnic choir, who can enrich my idea about Tapio by singing ethnic song from Kalevala..and by coincidence I discover nice and rich of ethnic song girls' choir in the music school near by EMMA. I was there twice and recorded their singing and also joiking, which excited me strongly and I started to be interested in that expression way of singing. The teacher Veera organized all so kindly:they showed me joiking with dancing and also in one day they learnt song dedicated to Tapio! I didn't expect so much, and now I feel responsibility to make this project as good as it could be:)
Next time I will film the last time and we suppose go outside, feel the song, search for a new mood in the park. Afterward I will collect branches and green stuff to make statue of Tapio and combine it with the dedicated song to him.
Now, I have to dissolve one item: where to put my insstalation? I was thinking about the center, like an alliusion to the first begining, which hopefully starts from name:)
