“Landvermesser.tv - a GPS-based literature project on the net and on the streets of Berlin”

The project accompanies writers, which show places in Berlin, where there novels take place. Well, that’s definitely a nice idea. I was curious, how the assembly of text and image, of the two contradictory mediums, would work. Although it was quite interesting to listen to the little anecdotes about Berlin (especially as I’m living in the city myself), something was missing… After watching three of the pieces, it struck me: there was no connection between the literary texts and the places. While the texts had atmosphere and mystery the pictures where shouting at me with digital/colorful reality, no staging at all.

Thanks to Mirko for the tip.
