ABANDONED MYSTERY (AbMy) Multi/Inter/Trans/Cross/No-disciplinary Expedition Launched by: Natalia Borissova (RU/D), Mindaugas Gapsevicius (LT/D) and Anna Karpenko (RU) In co-locative collaboration with: Andrew Paterson/Pixelache (FL), Nida Art Colony (LT), SERDE (LV), NCCA_Kaliningrad (RU) & Production Network for Electronic Art (NO) Supported by: KKNord |
Abandoned Mystery is a Multi/Inter/Trans/Cross/Non-disciplinary Expedition pilot project on exploring the constitution of the phenomena of abandoned military sites of the European edges in the Baltic Sea area. (Pre-WWII fortifications, Soviet military heritages in Koenigsberg/Kaliningrad, Memel/Klaipeda and Riga, Curonian Spit, Vyborg, Karelian Isthmus/Russia, Liepaja, Vainode, Skrunda/Latvia as well as Porkkala, Hamina/Finland and Plateliai, Gulbiniskiai, Rimsai/Lithuania).

NON (GREEN) GARDENING or (edible) mushrooms cultivation/grow for the art, science and food through research, curiosity and practical experience, involving some technological elements and based on bio-remediation /conversion of locally available raw organic by-products from households, gardens, farms, forests and agriculture into the brain/soul/soil-consciousness sustenance. |
Edible mushrooms are strange and mysterious organisms - something intermediate between non-green plants and non-stomach animals that are eating dead organic materials, since they do not conduct photosynthesis to make their own food from the sun-light. Instead they are producing a wide range of enzymes to degrade lignocellulosic through bio- synthesis and act like decomposers. This process can be compared with low-tech home- composting (not necessary with genetic engineering) which converts organic wastes into the nutrient-rich soil and healthy protein-rich edible medium.
