toward a project

Thinking about future project I would say: 1. If islands is the mechanism in which this region works, we must consider it and, in a way, preserve as a value; 2. If we accept the 1. the project splits in two branches: 2.1 at the regional scale the project will act in the inverspace. This project will be soft and will regard relations, connections, synergies of each island in regard to the whole. the question would be: how the project can invent a flexible structure in order to activate different islands configurations depending on a specific issue (entertainment, culture, environmental protection, etc.)? 2.2 at the urban scale the project will deal with micro-phenomena which are within the island (uuss maa is an example). in other words, in which way is it possible to stimulate direct involvement of people, institutions, associations in each island in order to strength their own (or a possible) common identity? 3. This double-scale intervention will involve a double-scale participation: 3.1 at the regional scale with decision makers, institutions, NGO's 3.2 at the urban scale with inhabitants, associations, local NGO's 4. It might be possible to shift next cultural interventions in activities which will involve participatory tasks as I suggest in 3.1 and 3.2. In this way the outcome from the cultural intervention workshop will be that local knowledge which will allow us to match our mission (thinking this region as a flexible whole in order to enhance better standards, social re-distribution, and regional coherence). 5. Finally, I believe that regional scale, in the future, need a step forward which would regard Estonian (and maybe Finnish) Countryside. The question in this case would be: how countryside deals with Tallinn and other cities? It is possible to embed this feature in a more complex regional plan? What change in Tallinn archipelago if we consider countryside? Can countryside be that system which will allow relations between Tallinn, Parnu, Tartu, and Narva in a more complex archipelago? Can Countryside be that link which will allow a better integration between Helsinki and Tallinn? Tino
