The Archstoyanie is a creative festival that kicks off every year in the forest of Nikola-Lenivets and provide their participants with a chance to design and construct something that wouldn't be possible in an urban context.
“Fast track” (with a 170 foot / 51m long track made of a trampoline), by Salto, is a integral part of park infrastructure, it is a road and an installation at the same time. It challenges the concept of infrastructure that only focuses on technical and functional aspects and tends to be ignorant to its surroundings. “Fast track” is an attempt to create intelligent infrastructure that is emotional and corresponds to the local context. It gives the user a different experience of moving and percieving the environment.
