DEPOT

The video recording of the DEPOT was filmed at the Depot station of the Savelovskaya railway on January 30, 1990 for the AM installation “Journey to the West” (not realized). We chose the “Depot” station for the reason that in the 70s, spectators came to the CA events on the Kiovogorskoe field through this station (then walked through the forest and fields, in a straight line, 2.42 km).

During the video recording, texts from the "Handbook of snow", edited by D.M.Grey and D.H. Male, were sometimes read behind the scenes.

Translation from English edited by V.M. Kotlyakova, Leningrad, Gidrometeoizdat 1986, Pergamon press, 1981, Toronto Oxford New York Sydney Paris Frankfurt.

The book's circulation is 6810 copies. The book has three parts:

Part I: Snow and the environment.

Part II: Snowfall and snow cover.

Part III: Snow and technology.

The texts were read in Russian by AM, in German by SH, and in English by GK.
