Hiking shooting, with a snap of two to three steps, which continuously guides us from one location to another until we return to the starting position, consists of sequential photos, but not necessarily in successive time intervals. If we reach the closed doors of the gallery and return at the opening of the exhibition to continue the session around the exhibition site and casually portray the performers and the audience, we will keep the federal path, but the intermediate time delays, which in the respective “ditopias” can skip for a few hours, a day or two, a week, a month..., have finally reached 15 years, until the last locations reached in 2024.
From the first interactive installation at Station Mir, Herouville-Saint-Clair (2004), ditopie has come a long way, from Moderna Galerija Ljubljana (2004) to the Tesla Media Center in Berlin (2006) and the Rigo Gallery in Novigrad (2007-2008) and further iterations in Maribor, Ljubljana and MMSU Rijeka in 2009. All works were Interactive, first as digital mirrors for the participating audience, then the video tracking system was transformed into a tool for manual management of walking around the original locations and surrounding spaces. The latest installation of this kind, Ditopia Lu lighting in MSUM (2016), also allowed us to make a 14-kilometer trek through Istanbul during four changes of walking locations.
The first of The Walking ditopias, which we poured into the completed film form Ditopio Memotopio 2021 , we premiered on 12. Arterija Festival in Novigrad (2021).

Pohodno fotografiranje, s šklocanjem na dva do tri korake, ki nas zvezno vodi od ene lokacije do druge, dokler se ne vrnemo na začetno pozicijo, je sicer sestavljeno iz zaporednih fotografij, ne pa nujno v zaporednih časovnih intervalih. Če dospemo do zaprtih vrat galerije in se povrnemo ob otvoritvi razstave, da nadaljujemo s seanso po razstavišču ter mimogrede portretiramo nastopajoče in občinstvo, bomo sicer ohranili zvezno pot, a vmesni časovni zamiki, ki v dotičnih “ditopiah” lahko preskakujejo za nekaj ur, dan ali dva, teden, mesec …, so končno dosegli 15 let, vse do zadnjih dosnetih lokacij v letu 2024.
Od prve interaktivne instalacije v Station Mir, Herouville-Saint-Clair (2004) so ditopie prehodile dolgo pot, od Moderne galerije Ljubljana (2004) do medijskega centra Tesla v Berlinu (2006) in Galerije Rigo v Novigradu (2007–2008) ter nadaljnjih iteracij v Mariboru, Ljubljani in MMSU Rijeka v letu 2009. Vsa dela so bila interaktivna, najprej kot digitalna ogledala za sodelujočo publiko, potem smo video sledilni sistem transformirali v orodje za ročno upravljanje sprehajanja po izvornih lokacijah in obdajajočih prostorih. Zadnja tovrstna instalacija, Ditopia LUX v MSUM (2016), nam je med štirimi menjavami sprehajalnih lokacij omogočila tudi 14-kilometrski treking po Istanbulu.
Prvo od pohodnih ditopij, ki smo jo prelili v zaključeno filmsko obliko Ditopio Memotopio 2021 , smo premierno predstavili na 12. festivalu Arterija v Novigradu (2021).
