The feeling of displacement gets to much, memories of home inhabit me and I get to feel home everywhere

Chapter one is the childhood house in which I grew up. This holds memories and forms feelings I have about home. Now I am away from home I remember those feelings wh In the third part everywhere I am is my home.

I feel at home in Rotterdam BUT I am like a ghost stuck between two worlds.In Rotterdam I will never feel the same but I have grown and learned a lot over the last 4-6 years in Rotterdam.

Snow Te gets the feeling of loneliness, but the sound of the burning fireplace = the image of snow one feels, this is a very Lithuanian winter with lots of snow. It doesn't snow so much now. Image 2 The buildings are characteristic of Rotterdam. I wanted to make a feeling of displacement. A lot of everything that makes you feel lost for the first time but becomes more familiar as you get used to. 3: a poem reflecting the feeling on loneliness; b)from this solitude I draw on memories of Vilnius and become reconciled with the present location. It is not that you remember things it is that things that are new become familiar, so it is possible to find comfort in tall buildings.

note two really nice things about this: the poem as a form and the essayistic form. This isn't nostalgia but rather a transformation.

Choices:

How do I think it should make me feel? I want audience to have mesh feeling of being lonely, encountering solitude. Feeling something distant but very close at the same time. Cold but comforting.

What would you (would not) change? Ine suggests (for EYE) to embrace one part instead of trying to keep 3 chapters which seem like trailer. Wouldn't change the poerty. For the EYE, will choose only 1 language. Will change-> re-record the sound to make it more clean especially the poetry part.

What does it change? It's gonna change me as an artist. Because it will get out sth that stuck in my head for a couple of years. And using new tool which is poetry.

How difficult? It's difficult to put everything in limited length of video. And it's difficult to make the decision of what to use/ not to use. The sound software is also challenging.
