Oulu palaa (Oulu is burning) refers, first of all, to the fire in cityscape of Oulu in 1822, when 330 houses burned down when only 65 houses survived from the fire, About 3000 people were left homeless. Inmate buildings were the primary principle objective, instead of facade of the city. Oulu palaa festival supports this mentality in modern Oulu. In 1978, city of Oulu made protection order to these over 100 years old buildings. Before final order, mysterious arson took place. ”Grand conspiracy or mutual athmosphere”*. To repair or to avoid fine from purposely decayed buildings, motive of construction company seems too clear. Unfortunately, nowadays city of Oulu invests in technology, shopping malls (as any other city in finland) and parking halls, leaving tiny contribution for the underpriviledged. Our agenda is to get people interested in this matter and enchance the possibilities of the northern concrete jungle by the bay of bothnia...
