A hypertextual, mulitmodal report on old, abandoned factories, and about the people who still work in the factory spaces. Through stories in text, spoken voice, music, other sounds, still images and moving images, we are shown how abandoned factories have become the basis of cultural production, often now functioning as cultural centres and attractions. This hypertext speaks in favour of protecting and repurposing old factory spaces that are threatened with demolition. The hypertext calls itself a report, but could also be connected to the genres of narrative and of documentary, digital visual art, digital movies, sound art and digital installation.
