مناظر پایانی

مناظر پایانی‌ دورنماهائی است که شاید بارها دیده ایم.اما چیزی در آنها از تمام شدن می‌گوید.‌لحظاتی‌اند

میان اتفاق و لحظه‌ای قبل از آن. اینجا اتفاق روی لبه است و لبه نه معمولی مثل پرتگاه 

و هدفش نه چیزی مثل زندگی‌ ست. شیئی یا فضائی مرموز است و هدفش خودِ منظره است.مهمانی ناخوانده شاید که فضا را از آن خود کرده است.

اتفاقی نادر است که در لحظه‌ی اول به چشم نمی‌‌آید.مثل سنگی‌ که بعد از پیچ جاده در انتظار است.

وجود دارد و مترصد است.با فضای کلی‌ بیگانه نیست،بخشی از آن است،بخشی از آن می‌تواند باشد.و همین

کل فضا را نگران می‌کند.فضایی که با خیالی امن چشم‌مان در آن قدم می‌زند و ناگهان

همه چیز تحت کنترلِ آن چیز دیگر قرار می‌گیرد.چیزی که با ما بوده است.همراه دورنما بوده است.یا به آرامی بدان پیوسته و حالا زیادی نزدیک میشود،ما را در بر می‌گیرد و در لحظه دچارمان می‌کند.مثل خواب

دارد ما را در برمیگیرد.فاصله اندک است و همه‌چیز غیر مطمئن می‌شود.جز آنچه می‌خواهد 

اتفاق بیفتد.جزئی کوچک یا سترگ از منظره ای که به آن ایمان آورده‌ایم وآن راباور کرده ایم خفه‌مان می‌کند،قصد دارد خفه‌مان کند و ما این را فهمیده‌ایم ولی‌ خیلی‌ دیر فهمیده‌ایم.فقط چند لحظه قبل از اتفاق.و

دیگر کاری ساخته نیست.حتی آنقدر نزدیک است که فاجعه را می‌بینیم.کنار دست شکارچی نشسته ایم

و لحظه‌ی شلیک است.آنقدر لحظه‌ی شلیک‌ است که اتفاق را می‌بینیم.حتی میبینیم که شلیک شکارچی را به  کمی به عقب پرتاب کرده است اما زمان را نه. آنقدر نزدیک که اتفاق ‌کاملاً در برمان می‌گیرد.و ما دیگر نمی‌توانیم از منظره مراقبت کنیم.کار از کار گذشته است. منظره نابود شده ‌است و ما جزئی از منظره بوده ایم.

Final scenes

Final scenes are prospects we might have seen many times, yet something about them clearly expresses an end. They are the moments between and right before an event. The event is usually at the very edge, and by edge I don’t mean a regular one like a cliff and its goal isn’t something like life. It’s a mysterious thing or expanse and the aim is the landscape itself, even if an uninvited guest might have occupied the space for itself.

A rare event that isn’t obvious from the first moment, like a rock that suddenly appears right behind the bend. It exists, waits. It isn’t alien with the whole expanse, it’s part of it or could be part of it, and this disrupts the whole atmosphere. A space in which our eyes stroll safely and suddenly everything is under the control of that other “thing”.

A thing that accompanied us and the landscape or it slowly joined in at some point and is now too close, holding us in and involving us in the moment. Like sleep, it enwraps. The distance is little and everything becomes insecure except for what is about to happen. The small or large part of a scene that we have come to believe and have faith in chokes us. It intends to suffocate us and we have become aware of it. Alas, it is too late. It is only moments away from the happening and nothing can be done. It is so close that we can even see the disaster. We are sat beside the hunter and it is the time to shoot. It is so the time to shoot that we see it happen. We even see the hunter thrown back by the force of the shot, but not the time.  It is so near that the event closes on us completely and we can no longer watch the scene. It’s too late. The scene is destroyed and we were part of it…

More About Tehran

Overview and HistoryTehran is the capital of Iran and the largest city in the Middle East, with a population of fifteen million people living under the peaks of the Alborz mountain range.Although archaeological evidence places human activity around Tehran back into the years 6000BC, the city was not mentioned in any writings until much later, in the thirteenth century. It's a relatively new city by Iranian standards.But Tehran was a well-known village in the ninth century. It grew rapidly when its neighboring city, Rhages, was destroyed by Mongolian raiders. Many people fled to Tehran.In the seventeenth century Tehran became home to the rulers of the Safavid Dynasty. This is the period when the wall around the city was first constructed. Tehran became the capital of Iran in 1795 and amazingly fast growth followed over the next two hundred years.The recent history of Tehran saw construction of apartment complexes and wide avenues in place of the old Persian gardens, to the detriment of the city's cultural history.The city at present is laid out in two general parts. Northern Tehran is more cosmopolitan and expensive, southern Tehran is cheaper and gets the name "downtown."Getting ThereMehrabad airport is the original one which is currently in the process of being replaced by Imam Khomeini International Airport. The new one is farther away from the city but it now receives all the international traffic, so allow an extra hour to get there or back.TransportationTehran driving can be a wild free-for-all like some South American cities, so get ready for shared taxis, confusing bus routes and a brand new shiny metro system to make it all better. To be fair, there is a great highway system here.The metro has four lines, tickets cost 2000IR, and they have segregated cars. The women-only carriages are the last two at the end, FYI.Taxis come in two flavors, shared and private. Private taxis are more expensive but easier to manage for the visiting traveler. Tehran has a mean rush hour starting at seven AM and lasting until 8PM in its evening version. Solution? Motorcycle taxis! They cut through the traffic and any spare nerves you might have left.People and CultureMore than sixty percent of Tehranis were born outside of the city, making it as ethnically and linguistically diverse as the country itself. Tehran is the most secular and liberal city in Iran and as such it attracts students from all over the country.Things to do, RecommendationsTake the metro to the Tehran Bazaar at the stop "Panzda Gordad". There you can find anything and everything -- shoes, clothes, food, gold, machines and more. Just for the sight of it alone you should take a trip there.If you like being outside, go to Darband and drink tea in a traditional setting. Tehranis love a good picnic and there are plenty of parks to enjoy. Try Mellat park on a friday (fridays are public holidays), or maybe Park Daneshjou, Saaii or Jamshidieh.Remember to go upstairs and have a look around, always always always! The Azadi Tower should fit the bill; it was constructed to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of the Persian Empire.Tehran is also full of museums such as:the Contemporary Art Museumthe Abghine Musuem (glass works)the 19th century Golestan Royal Palace museumthe museum of carpets (!!!)Reza Abbasi Museum of extraordinary miniaturesand most stunning of all,the Crown Jewels Museum which holds the largest pink diamond in the world and many other jaw-dropping jewels.Text by Steve Smith.
