A Private Reflection of Flowers and Music
Before the release of the website a reflection took place before the towns of Haapsalu and Weymouth were connected together by the website. A space of reflection in London was set up with flower arrangements made by Joan Cobbold and Cheryl Todd and a stage made by Malcolm Todd.
Heard in two different spaces were recordings of the Eesti Kunsti Akadeemia Koor and the singers from the London Chorus singing as the two towns. A recording of the harp from 'The Binding/Ühendus' played by Rory Pilgrim was also heard. The recordings were played simultaneously, their separation reflecting upon the time that the towns were not connected.
