Here is an absolutely brilliant new movie just released in France, Switzerland and Belgium called Home . Written and directed by French/Swiss film director Ursula Meier, this movie succeed to reach the quality of a Ballardian story (read The concrete island ) in which Humans become prisonners of their technocratic environment. The story of Home, depicts a family living on the border of an abandonned motorway in construction. Paradoxally, instead of the omnipresent fields, this artefact fits with their garden, their territory of dream, their heterotopia. Unfortunetly, this motorway will be soon opening to traffic... I don't know if this movie will be released elsewhere, but I recommand it to anybody who'd be able to watch it !

With a title covered from a really excellent Radiohead's song, Los Angeles based office PATTERNS created an hydroponics garden tackling the issue of "artifical nature" (I'm still calling it androïde nature). Representation is smart because program is clearly announced as a garden but there is no stain of green anywhere. Presentation text: Following the lineage of the Schindler house as an experiment in modern living in close relation to nature, our proposal is an attempt to investigate the formal, spatial and atmospheric potential of a vertically sustainable garden in sink with the most advanced technology for plant growth. The new hydroponic tree wall accepts the existing conditions of the site; the prevailing conflict between a historic architectural masterpiece and a new building development. Despite the irony of its title, Fake Plastic Trees [FPT] is a serious attempt to inventively negotiate conflictive boundaries by emphasizing new and multiple life forms o

Here is a cool and suprising device which allows to take pictures thanks to a kite and a little mechanical device. Apparently it is used by some archeologists to be able to appreciate working site from above. Two French websites to visit: this one and that one
