a form of urban communication, stockholm hammarby sjostad

its been almost 3 years since i left stockholm. many things have been happening since then yet friends in stockholm have never stopped me aspiring to visit there again.

the other day, a friend of mine sent me a link of a dance performance, shot in hammarby sjostad, stockholm. Hammarby Sjostad has been developed as mixed-use city and is famous for its challenge for environmental protection. and naturally it has attracted many inspection tours in recent years.

what i liked about the area when i lived in stockholm was its potential and flexibility of space. although the area was resided by mainly relatively young upper middle class, its openness attracted me kind of poor students to visit once in a while just to hang out.

 

generally speaking, i dont fancy luxurious development sites. but i have failed to dislike hammarby. this is probably because of earlier mentioned potential and flexibility of space that hammarby provides.

when you are there, you can feel the sky, earth and water. you can see how cities and architectures can live with them. and you can communicate with nature through urban amenities.  these are some aspects of its potential i believe.

the form of urban communication could be various. it could be either linguistic or tacit. whats important might not be how to story but what to story. the clip doesnt speak anything but tells a lot.
