As a second stage of their project One fine day, all this will be yours. Dellbrügge & de Moll publish a libretto, staging agonistic encounters on common lands. Far from constructing a consistent whole Dellbrügge & de Moll keep adding layers: The west onto the north, the concept of private property onto the idea of common land, and the medium of film onto the medium of opera. By employing the Situationist technique of superimposing a map of one context onto another, the libretto borrows dialogs from Western movies to address issues at stake in Bjørvika. The libretto, which will be handed over as a present, challenges the visitors to become agents and enact the scenarios of conflicts over land use and participation.
