Intro

Around the world ......this is our dream. With our kayaks we want to discover the world, explore different countries and make a contribution to intercultural understanding. From continent to continent, once around the globe. - this is BOUNDLESS the latest movie project by 1596Media -It will start in July 2011. Six weeks in NORWAY, the Mecca of european whitewater kayaking. No other country offers as many difficult rivers so close to each other. Afterwards we will go back to the roots of whitewater kayaking: the ALPS. In middle of October our next destination will be NEPAL. Within 5 weeks we want to learn about their culture and explore Himalayan rivers. Following Nepal we will reach the geographical appendix of our journey -- NEW ZEALND -- a land abound with powerful natural landscapes and fantastic whitewater. After New Zealnd we will stay in the southern hemisphere, travelling 10 000 km east, to the beautiful country of CHILE. There our focus is on going big. Big waterfalls and big volume rivers. Our next stop will be QUEBEC. During spring the canadian province of Quebec offers tons of rivers and plenty of so far unknown runs. From there we will continue to CALIFORNIA and its amazing multiay trips located in a breathtaking landscape. Our last destinaton will be BRITISH COLUMBIA where we will culminate our adventure on some of the worlds challenging whitewater in deep gorges.
SustainabilityWith our journey we want to set an example for sustainable, CO2 neutral travelling. So all the electrical energy we need for laptop, camera, communication,.. will be generated from renewable sources through a portable PV-module. Therewith we also want to show and exemplify, to all the people we meet during our jouney, a way to live with sustainable renewable and independet power supply.Projectsupervisor: David Ernst - Engineer for Renewable Energy

Crew

Florian Petry
Rather modest in the team. Without a lot of words he styles all kind of difficulties. With his skills and commitment behind the camera, he ensures that we can revel in hot shots. On the river, he always exudes the feeling of clamness, it takes to think about a possible descent.

David Ernst

David is movie producer, kayak instructor and engineer. He can repair almost anything from car, boat to camera and therefore he is called Mc Gyver by our team. Away from the technical area, he is also full on: on the river with the *line of the day*, in the evening, with the *biggest fire* and in between with the *best shot* of his camera.

During the trip ... ... we will report our adventure in realtime. Via a blog, social networks such as facebook and twitter we will publish reports, photos and of course videos, so everybody is able to follow our journey around the world. There will also be regulary publicaions on kayaking websites and in magaziness.After each leg of the trip we will publish a video. Those videos can be seen as trailers for the movie BOUNDLESS.
