email from Md. Amirul Hussain, is clearer in what the problem is -
their facilities are limited and there is no separate place for filling balloons, balloons are filled where the gas is, but not open enough for filming to be done as we need. the balloons are then brought to a different, further place for release, so filming cannot be done as requested. he says the filming they already sent was done as best they could manage with what their facilities are

email from Md. Amirul Hussain, is slightly confusing
says they have already filmed at their Rawin Station (which we received) -
says, “Due to the shortage of our facilities we discussed with our colligues and did the filming work. Some of your advice could not be followed. But if we go for additional filming, the filming status will not be changed so much. So I think additional filming (further filming) is not required. In this regard your comment would be appreciated.”

sent reply with filming instructions again, asking if they can either re-film, or send their recording unedited

PRESENTATION AT HIGH LEVEL RECEPTION OF WCC-3, SEP. 3 2009

twelveoclockinlondon — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 18:53:32 +0000

We are pleased to announce Nin Brudermann’s project ‘Twelve O’Clock in London’ as part of the United Nations’ agenda on Millenium Development Goals. The first in a series of select screenings was presented September 3rd, 2009, within the framework of the World Climate Conference, to Heads of States and Governments at Victoria Hall, Geneva, preceding a concert by the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. Afterwards, the artist officially presented a symbolic weather balloon to the Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Ban Ki-Moon, as a central gesture of the international collaboration which the project brings to light.

Brudermann’s ‘Twelve O’Clock in London’ is a uniquely relevant collaboration (linking the arts, sciences and politics) that illuminates an inter-governmental action occurring daily at the strike of UTC 00.00h and 12.00h, as all nations synchronously launch meteorological balloons in order to realize a global observation of the atmosphere. Supported by the United Nations Special Agency, World Meteorological Organization, she has enlisted each individual nation to become active documentarians of their own action. For the first time, this one of a kind, unprecedented collaboration of all world governments is manifest in a one-channel video presentation which shows over 150 video submissions from around the globe.
