Army of concrete‘An army of concrete’ tells the story of the Atlantic Wall in WesternJutland. From the outside it’s a landscape of bunkers, where visitors find mostly factual information on the Atlantic Wall. Inside visitors go back in time and enter little worlds where they find personal stories. These stories stand for something bigger, representing groups in Danish society at the time.Together these stories allow visitors to construct the history of World WarII in Western Jutland and especially of the Atlantic Wall.

3.4 Frozen time
We make a setting in which a drop of resin is in the act of catching a fly. We are looking intothe possibility to make this half 3D: the drop is real but cut off on the back. On the back weshowa film of fly being caught in honey. The story is about that dripping resin sometimescaughtinsects, which has resulted in what we now call inclusions. These inclusions have sort of frozen time and give us a lot of information on theforest: the kind of animals that inhabited the amber forest and the kind of plants growingthere.Next to the big drop we show the real thing: actual inclusions with magnifying glasses that visitors can look at. On the side there areviewing glasses to check 3D pictures of inclusions.
Collection
A selection from the inclusions collection (approximately 10-15).
On the side: viewers with 3Dpictures ofinclusions

40 | The gateway to the west
For each story we use specific contemporary imagery to create a visual language. In doing so we create a fitting atmosphere for each story while adding to the visual richness of the gallery as a whole. This visual language will be basis for the graphic designs and scenography inside theshowcases.
Visual language AVAudio beacons in each dune unlock the stories. In a number of cases we use video projection to help telling thestory.
Story point ofviewThe focus is on the human aspect (if appropriate), using personal stories. The point of view of the storyteller is 3rd person. Someone is telling you about for instance the lifeboat man’s story, a bitlike a fairy-tale. There will be 2 alternating storytellers.

6.1 Main stort: Dead man’s hill
There were many myths about dead man’s hills and stranded people. The dead man’s hill struck fear on the local community. Fishermen’s wives for instance were scared to go past the hill alone- they preferred to pass in a largegroup.Source:Dead Man’s Hill.100316.JK.docx

Storyboard: ragingstorms
• The sea becomes more rough and rainy. Dark clouds cover the sky, which createsa painterly image, and the image slowly starts to look like apainting.
• We hear thunder and the flashes light up the whole room. In the distance we see a silhouette ofa ship that is stuck on a sandbank. It’s large sails are being torn apart by the wind.
• The crew is desperatly fighting the situation and launch an emergency rocket. It’s explosion above us lights up the sea and thesky.
• A lifeboat approaches the ship. We see the mast of the ship breaking intwo.• After another crashing thunder and intense flash, part of the painting freezes and nowhas a
wooden frame around it, floating on thewaves.
