big updates to the longing fast forward website

it’s been a long time since we had time to do work on our website for ‘Longing – Fast Forward’ – our one year performance project in kullorsuaq, greenland. i had bought the domains longing.gl and longingfastforward.gl and that was about it.

unfortunately we had to postpone our trip back to our friends in northwestern greenland, but the reason was good, even happy. annesofie is pregnant with her wonderful boyfriend, daniel – who has joined the project as a sound artist.

finally we had some days together and annesofie norn and I spent them updating longing.gl, and posting some old texts in the blog, putting up videos of our performers, etc.

we have now written and rewritten the texts for the project a dozen times over the last two years, and we think we’re getting better at describing our concepts, ideas and phantasms. hopefully others agree, and hopefully they are sponsors too…

it all started with wondering why we hear so much about animals and melting ice, but so little about the people living with it. the Inuit, who for millennia have inhabited the north. a culture overcoming both nature, vikings and the danes. why don’t we hear more about the modern society who has to tackle climate change, not only in the distant future, but right now?

have a look at http://longing.gl and tell us what you think.
