  Ghost Congregation
 
gps-coords??

Doorways lie gaping open and exposed in Karosta even while everyone is sleeping, revealing only what holds the building upright. Routes between the neighbourhood now involves stepping over concrete rubble. Waving at empty windows, many people left years before. Layers of Russian newspaper on the walls inform the news of another time.

So we decide to trace, using the realtime GPS mobile system, the ghost congregation.

Walking some of the absent home from the Cathedral.

Along the roads and paths, now overgrown, visiting old friends who have already left.

There are many memories and patterns to deliver.
