5. ART PROJECTS 
5.1 "cultural landscapes" 
The long-term photographic project entitled "cultural 
landscapes" (working title) formulates approaches towards 
exemplary cultural landscapes. Sensing these areas comprises 
long strolls, careful observation and research on the formation 
processes of these characteristic landscapes on natural grounds. 
Taking a picture is an attempt to define the optimised position 
of the camera in the scene, between diving into it and barely 
watching from a distance. This "seen space" forms a "living 
world" and reflects a culturally perceived landscape. 
In this sense images may be considered extracts and "glimpse- 
keepers" of life in motion. Colour and black and white get 
together side by side. It is in the act of comparing the single 
images to one another that characteristics and differences in 
nature reveal and get visible. 
AnoYo Group works on "own initiative" as well as for 
commissioned projects. Among the main concerns is the 
documentation of cultural heritage and landscapes, also in 
combined spheres. After a thorough process of research, 
classification in social, historical and contemporary contexts 
photographs are taken in large format. Selected views are 
presented or to put it in a short formula: reflected documentary 
photography. 
Some project examples: German Penal Architecture, Sacred 
Sites in Japan, Suburban Architecture of Tokyo, Main Station 
Leipzig, Contemporary Architecture in the Medieval City 
Centre of Halle, Worlitz Gardens

6. PERSPECTIVES 
After this overview of exemplary projects and brief journey into 
the wide field of science, education and arts we may recall some 
perspective-bundles and experimentally form new ones. 
The case study reveals a wide and at the same time detailed 
approach towards the monitoring of a natural and cultural 
landscape bearing rich but vulnerable heritage (re)sources, 
including a comprehensive description of the historical 
transformations of this "living heritage". 
The documentary projects offer comprehensive approaches 
towards scientific descriptions of cultural heritage in context 
with active involvement of the regions' inhabitants in this vital 
heritage conservation process. 
In the study project an educative approach of active group 
involvement in the research process is illustrated, towards 
sensing (world) heritage in local-global context as part of "our 
living memory" 
The art projects reveal individual approaches towards sensing 
our human natural and cultural basis in reflections of inner and 
outer worlds, as "reflected documentaries". 
In the careful combination of different documentation methods 
and human communication approaches, common scientific 
research results may enhance individual artistic reflections or 
vice versa creative processes might lead to the development of 
new scientific perspectives, supporting a rich variety in the 
ongoing sensing of "our natural and cultural heritage - 
transformations, collections and creative processes". This rich 
fundus may provide a nourishing source for the development of 
sustainable strategies in balancing conservation and change as 
integral parts of our human existence. 
The "nat.-log." project enters the experimental sphere of 
different approaches towards or rather exposure to natural 
spaces. A collection of texts, graphics and photographs are 
offered in a book. Similar to an artists' diary "nat.-log." reflects 
on human existence in general and in relation to "untouched" 
natural areas, offering extensive long strolls and short glimpses 
of sudden viewpoints. A connection towards our prehistoric 
memory is stimulated, archaic scripts and signs seem to 
reappear, touching upon inner archaic human nature. 
The Workshop for Transmissions ("Werkstatt fur 
Transmisssionen") collects and edits graphic art, texts, sounds 
and all kinds of intermediate forms in experimental 
combinations. Generally independant from usual language, the 
results may be considered as art objects. According to the 
respective topics, mainly considerations on nature, human 
existence and related extensions are revealed. The objects have 
a wide rage of appearance: artists books, folders, prints, silver- 
chrome-photographs, etchings, sound collages, also spacious 
book-image-plates mostly in larger formats.
