"'Frozen Sky' is a desktop movie: A package of random playing animations of the three letter codes used to identify world cities: LHR CDG JFK RIO SYD SHA. = London (Heathrow), Paris (Charles de Gaulle), New York (John F Kennedy), Rio de Janeiro, Sydney, Shanghai, etc.
'Frozen Sky' is a constellation of the world's urban centres. A poetry of places in a global network where landing points offer departures into the imaginary - where human activity is explored through the places and structures we inhabit, and the routes that penetrate and link them." Langlands & Bell
