Abandoned Prison

After hearing  Andrew Kzirian's (from the band  Viza ) track - Illumination it really reflected for me atmosphere of the recently visited abandoned prison, so i made this little video to illustrate it. Pictures and some more info about the place can be found here .

Road Trip - Belgium '12

Image
Lots of fantastic sites seen on this rather spontaneous trip [erm, primarily a trip to Wales, heh]. all places visited with: Day Of The Dead, Keïteï and Subversive. Day 1 So we are queuing for the ferry down to France, and who can we see queuing next to us?! Sx-riffraff and his crew! heh, we did Belgium Road Trip together last year.. that's completely unscheduled meet up, i love random encounters, bizarre, random meetings :) Crachoir Swimming Pool After a fail in an abandoned house (which wasn't quite abandoned and we opened the door to meet a very angry lady and her dog, lol) we headed for this swimming pool. Build in 1915, with lot's of eye catching details. Cite du Dragon Stop number two, an abandoned Chinese restaurant, unfortunately smashed to bits. Chambre du Commerce Famous CDC, there's some work going on here atm, floor has been all stripped down, and there's lot's of random junk lying aroun...

Slovakia Prison

Image
Primarily built in Middle Ages then rebuilt after the partitions of Poland in the XVIII and XIX century. Formerly housed the church and Dominican monastery. In 1981 on the imposition of the martial law in Poland, some high rank Solidarity members has been imprisoned here. Very interesting object and a part-time museum at the moment, lots of artists left it's print on the walls (which sometimes looks like a real prisoners art) it adds to the atmosphere, apparently there's still some genuine graffiti in the dining room but we didn't have enough time to inspect it.

Road Trip - Kujawy

Image
A little preview of a trip to Inowrocław, where around fifteen Polish explorers met and did a little off-road-urbex gathering. Great times and big shout to everyone involved. attendance list: our host Krawiec (Neurotransmiter), Wilga (No Trespassing), Szydłak Szk, Kwolas (Life is Illusion), Płomień (urbex.net.pl), Rocko De La'Maga, Culmar Di Curt, Travis Humantree, EdEk, Showtek and Liściu +1. Day 1 Institut of Plant Genetics Quite interesting place with few greenhouses and utility buildings. Boarding School Fantastic place with lots of vivid colours somehow reminded me of a well known abandoned school in UK. Then after another few hours of driving we finally arrived to Inowrocław to meet Krawiec and the rest of our team :) Decision has been made to organize a party and a sleep over on top of the roof.. heh. Day 2 Waking up after a busy night.. And off to the first location: Distillery Main ...
