So welcome to the next site and what a fruity one it is. So we’ve taken the plunge to check out Sweden. And I’m off to meet and American at a place called Not Quite where coincidentally there is a disused paper mill where they all make art in. So up in the heights of the building there is a room that they flooded for a light installation and as you walk around the place there are sound making machines and all sorts of objects to interact with. The sites are getting sadder and sadder. Back in its glory years there were hundreds of people rushing about where I was slowly plodding. The place had an eerie feel to it where I’m sure something pretty nasty has happened yet with a calmness.
The family that own it grant free access and use of it, sadly people do go in there to wreck things but also at the same time a group of enthusiasts come and work on some enormous hydraulic pistons in the engine room and endeavour to get them working. The site was really worth visiting, I wouldn’t recommend walking around without a guide as some parts were more than sketchy and to be honest I’m not great with heights and that had to be overcome. But the sheer abundance of things you could use to make sound with was incredible, and every space entered was acoustically different.
