- | **Generally comparing biking and hiking:** The strain on the body, the amount of food and supplies needed were quite similar for both journeys. The experience of the landscape is somewhat more intimate on foot, but more can be explored on bike. Basically you always have sore legs, but on the bike your ass hurts too. Depending on the area cyclists are more flexible in finding food sources, supplies and shelter due to their wider radius of operation. Also heat is less of a factor for cyclists. | + | |

- | View from the launch point for the mission, image by Shelly. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | After days of arduous hiking through the valleys and over the mountain ridges of the Slovenian plateau, the Unmanned RT team has safely arrived at Sinji Vrh base camp. The famished travelers are treated to a wonderful meal of Wild Mountain Goat prepared by our host Hieronim and his family. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Now the next stage of the Unmanned Resilience workshop can start in earnest; the Unmanned Remote Sensing. The team-members now intimately familiar with the landscape, are invited to suggest possible missions with the Bramor UAV. Quite a varied cluster of ideas emerge, including: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | * mapping the remains of the hidden clandestine WW2 forest army hospitals | + | |
- | * mapping Roman archaeological remains | + | |
- | * mapping ticks in meadows (would need low altitude quadrocopter and extremely highres lens) | + | |
- | * mapping underground water-streams and lakes | + | |
- | * a dragonline mission, mapping pyramidal structures and patterns in the forests | + | |
- | * a mountain bear mission (or is that mountain bar mission) | + | |
- | + | ||
- | In the end it's our culinary experiences with the landscape that help to make a choice: the Bramor will be programmed for a dual-mission to discover the fields of forest Raspberries we've encountered and to explore the realms of the mysterious Slovenian Wild Mountain Goats. The stomach is our compass. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | A trail of cars leaves base camp heading for the area we crossed on the last day of the hike. This leads us to the slopes of the last mountain from which we descended to the edge of the plateau. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The team returns back at base camp. Here the analysis of the images captured during the flight can be started. Will we spot the Mountain Goat in it's natural environment? | + | |

- | In 2011 we made an open call for finding interesting concepts for our Augmented Urban Garden. It was Natalia Borissovas Non-Green-Gardening project which was the most appealing one. Within the last months she was regularly onsite - developing and improving her concept of a Non-Green Garden at the Time's Up Labs. Together with Natalia and Dismas Leonard we are still maintaining a hybrid - green / nongreen-garden. Pros- and Cons of such a project in urban areas will be discussed during the event on 21st of October between 2 and 5PM. Apart from a presentation of the Augmented Urban garden and its background of the Resilients project, some anecdotes regarding our battles with slugs and other less welcome guests in our garden as well as some rave about delicious mushroom-dishes which have delighted our menu, await you. And - if we are lucky there is still a chance to enjoy some fruits the garden entails. Non Green Gardening / Augmented Urban Garden is part of Resilients.

- | + | ||
- | Wonderful that we don't have a 'Rough Guide' to urban communication. I went through a learning curve on those placid waters between the Kaai and the Porte de Ninove. We can believe all we like that slowing down will result in an introspective reverie of lost silence - but nothing was further from the truth in what I found on the waters that Sunday. | + | |

- | Yet to be fair, it wasn't all yelling and catcalls; some people just sat staring at the water as if seeing the canal for the first time in their lives; sitting still and gazing at the stone walls, the towering edges of the city looming above them. The Taxi Service might have been a fantom journey, but there were no clouds or disappearing tricks, no funtoosh! and kablooiee! - it was just people sitting and doing nothing. | + | |

Let's find out what happens when a C6 model rocket engine is attached to a boat made out of anything you can get your hands on.

- | **After the tribe trip Pollinators Performing Pictures had an in situ residency in Rab, Croatia, the arrival point of the bike journey. The residency was organised there to process the vast material collected during the trip. Performing Picture worked on photo material, and mapping the chapels on the straight line the journeyers followed.** | + | <a href=" |
- | The end of the Pollinators journey with the public event in Rab where the participants shared their experiences of the trip and showed the rough material coming from the mobile process, was also the beginning of the Family of Creatives residency by Performing Pictures. Not only Geska and Robert Brecevic, but also Cesar Brecevic, the 13 year old son of Robert who had biked along the whole line were part of this residency. As part of the residency, further chapels were designed and placed on the island. The material was used for a artist photo-book essay (1 copy) and for the online map project by artist Pacome Beru, and the exhibition UnTied Notions. (Please note that this exhibition also encompassed works from another EU-project, the EITC 2011-7480. No costs for the exhibition has been charged to the Resilients project). | + | <iframe src=" |

- | These are the recallings by Patrik Qvist, creator of the IKEA-style roadside solar-powered chapels left as beacons of light for fellow travellers by his friend Robert Brečević. | + | |

- | It was somewhat sad to see R take off with a sackload of roadside chapels- I had very much wanted to partake in the journey, an adventure that would take him and his fellow travelers from suburban Stockholm down through an increasingly devout Europe. Or that it was how I imagined the lands south of here; a landscape devout in terms of number of people actively pursuing a faith within the framework of organized religion. I was curious to see how the chapels would be received along the way and to know to to what extent a crude miniature chapel could inspire to a moment of contemplation along different kinds of roads in this imagined Europe. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The chapels traveled in bits and pieces; a DIY-kit that required little else than a few nails and a hammer for assembly. The image within was another matter. R brought a beautifully cast St Cristobal from Mexico made of resina, rock hard and with great detail. I spent a few nights trying to make a silicone mold from the figure which then would be used on the journey- my idea was that the figure would be cast the night before erecting the chapel, after the bikes had been dismounted and camp had been secured for the night, thus providing a night-long curing of the figure. It did not quite work out- I was lacking in experience with the material, and had already used up most of my provisions of silicone in a vain attempt to make a huge mold for the entire chapel ("no problem, Robert, you can pick up concrete anywhere along the way, all you'll need is some water and a trowel" | + | |
- | + | ||
- | In the end, the chapel was made out of wood, and the faulty silicone mold for St Cristobal only held up for a few figures. Further down the road, the chapels became homes to icons that bore closer resemblance to the patron saint of travelers; icons that were assembled en route and thus spoke both of and for the landscapes transversed. | + | |

- | Whatever sadness I may have felt at the departure soon gave way to a sense of joy at receiving reports from the trip. The chapels dotted the landscape and tied together nation-states, | + | |
