Not all
participants have chosen a simple way to Baikal. On July, 2nd the command
7Я has started on a jeep from Vladivostok.
On
July, 4th the first machine has left Moscow also.
To pass on the car half
Russia -separate adventure!
14.07.2007
Never earlier
the airport of Irkutsk saw such inflow of architects. People were met with
ten buses, and the whole was necessary for transportation of luggage
KaMAZ!!
Night ARCH invasion to Huzhir.
Moving,
unloading and friendly dialogue proceeded till the morning. The most proof
architects have gone to sleep already after a
dawn...
15.07.2007
The short
meeting of organizers and the general gathering of leaders of commands -
does not suffice materials!!!
Therefore the
first sponsors have undertaken work - territory of festival was decorated
with banners and posters!!!!
While on a
sawmill cut last cubic metre of a bar, at
participants are an opportunity to study a vicinity, and at the same time
to find a new place for tents - in fact before
them put at late night in darkness!
Views of Huzhir...
And the most
active participants already did preparations for the future
ARCH-OBJECTS and borrowed places on a building
site
16.07.2007
At last the
material is brought and it is possible to undertake work! Saws and hammers
have rung out...
However the
begun work did not prevent to continue to admire much the nature of Baikal!
17.07.2007
The second day
of construction - had time both to work, and to be soaked under a rain...
The most
fascinating game became the Shaman-bowling. Our sponsors, company Kraspan,
have presented all an excellent holiday!!! On game rules it was necessary
to beat out a maximum quantity of bottles by means of old gym shoes.
Organizers hardly had time to carry out a role of the machines placing
size. All participants have received huge pleasure, and, besides PRIZES!!!
18.07.2007
In the morning, to general surprise, in the
center of a building site has unexpectedly grown
SHAMAN TAMBOURINE
- while all slept, master Pasha has collected in advance prepared details!
There was an
excellent weather and one day prior to the termination of construction the
SHAMAN the CITY has started to accept clear outlines...
Object "LIGHT-DARK"
of command "Ara-maS"
and kinds from its holes...
Work did not
stop neither in the evening, nor at late night. Most active of
participants - "
Iofan's children
" - continued construction in a view of projectors!
19.07.2007
Last strokes -
on
TAMBOURINE
the banner with a trade mark of festival stretches and handbells are
hanged out, the last wicker insert in "SHAMAN_BOTTLE"
of command «NEcessary",
layers "ТЕ'РЕБИТЬ"
jam.
One of the most
monumental objects - " COMMUNICATION CUBE " commands "kaabinet" - hardly
maintained a gale-force wind!
Trembled
neckbands on Sergey Voronina's columns and a
carved crown of command P.S.1
Only proud " the
Baikal Deer " silently resisted to hurricane!
On a decline the
CITY has begun to sparkle set of fires. For illumination improvised means
- a projector, a lamp, a candle and even alive fire were used all!
The big
popularity used "DIOGEN" commands "a-gc" - owing
to a fire and convenient places for sitting!
To everyone who
has got in "SHAMAN_BOTTLE", it was offered to try a hookah!
The easiest and
mobile object of Bavikin studio soared above
CITY, fixing an event on the web-chamber. Neither
sarmin wind, nor storm warning could not prevent the strongest to
Opening! Till four mornings above island music soared, and on the main
area proceeded night SHAMAN-DANCE!
20.07.2007
Construction is
finished and ahead two more days of entertainments and competitions! The
Majority of builders while sleeps after night presentation. In CITY the
silence and calmness reigns - it is a high time for photosessions...
The most mass
excursion will start on cape Hoboj - the most beautiful place of island
Olkhon!
Bavikin studio
sends there by swimming, other participants were waited with 10 covered
UAZ and one opened - for bikers!
Cape Hoboj - the
most northern point of Olkhon. On giving, this place possesses huge power,
owing to centuries-old traditions, the rituals spent here and, certainly,
to spirits - an integral part шаманской cultures. There are no people,
there is no civilization, there is no vanity, only sounds of huge ice
Baikal. Silence, the sun and a full pacification...Those who could come off
this mad beauty and in time return to UAZ, the tasty dinner waited modest,
but!
On the sun it is
good, but soon it is time home. To passengers of UAZ easily, and here to
the most extreme participants it was necessary to pass 50 more km on the
bikes on soil roads! Nine bicyclists and a
motorcycle of support have reached camp in settlement Huzhir only by the
night!
21.07.2007
Local residents
have so like our constructions, that we have agreed to transfer some
objects in a museum to the local artist, have some more moved on territory
of a camp site and were placed on special shaman
areas! So the city only outgrowthразросся in breadth also has received new patrons!
Ferry of huge ARCH-OBJECTS
on ZIL on the broken roads - the most
fascinating action!
Beach volleyball,
night bathing, a farewell disco directly on coast of Baikal and a song at
a fire. Nobody would be desirable to miss - in fact when still there will
be an opportunity to get warm at fire with colleagues from all country!
And to leave it would not be desirable. Fires burned till a dawn, sounds
of guitars and cheerful voices finished festival, saying goodbye with
Baikal. Who - for a short while, someone, hoping for a meeting, and who
and for ever...
22.07.2007
How it would be
desirable to remain, but work and vanity of greater cities calls! Morning
for many was heavy... Ahead - the ferry, hundreds kilometers up to Irkutsk,
and much still to fly to other ends of the country!
P.S.
For some participants of an adventure have
not ended with the termination of festival. Someone has remained on Baikal,
someone has gone further. For one of organizers - Ivan Ovchinnikova (www.motoxaoc.ru)
travel only began! Ahead - Mongolia and China!
To Mongolia through Altai...
The present
Mongolian impassability!
"Modern architecture " Mongolia...
China to reach
and it was not possible, but who knows, can we shall get there all
together?...
