In certain regions, urbanisation is rather compact and concentric, whereas others show dispersed and polycentric morphological patterns. Urban expansions at the rural-urban fringe have formed complex hybrid landscapes consisting of residential areas, commercial zones, agricultural land, recreational and nature areas. In recent decades, most rural-urban fringes in the Netherlands have seen substantial urbanisation. It asks for preservation and re-use of estates in a larger scale. This paper compares the New Dutch Waterline to the estate landscape and explore if this could benefit from the protection of estates and areas around cities that are in the process of strong urbanisation. In the seventeenth century, rich merchants constructed estates and country houses in the wealthy and strongly urbanised province of Holland, consisting of a luxurious house with design garden in the vicinity of the city and other estates, creating estate landscapes (Verschuure, 2013). Can this approach be of use for other spatial challenges which are related to areas of high historic impact, heritage landscapes? This contribution explores both the spatial characteristics of the New Dutch Waterline as well as the process of this national project and to compare it to other another heritage landscape, like the many estate landscapes in a project Arcadian Landscapes. The basic idea was the use of the cultural history of this area as the backbone for current large scale challenges (Luiten e.a., 2002). Spatial planning, public participation and legal protection of single objects -fortresses and so on-, defined areas of interest and the large scale impact was addressed. In the 1990s the process of revitalisation started as a national project. From 1815 until 1940 the New Dutch Waterline was one of the major defence lines, both a system of waterworks for inundating, as well as series of forts, casemates and other military defence objects. Well composed, great unexpected highlights and a restricted but highly creative guitar (with "latin" flavor) which serves all kind of purposes and in turn outstands in every appearanceīy not being "main" instrument all the time.Fifteen years have passed since the start of the national project New Dutch Waterline, presented as an illustrative example of a renewed approach of which spatial design was cross linked to heritage, for it described in the Nota Belvedere (Feddes, 1999). Rich in moods and arrangements, its music direction is in fact quiet visual as good soundtrack musicĮxpecting a Phil Manzanera release as such will decieve Phil's fans, but will surely catch prog Jazz/Fusion followers' attention. It was re-issued by Expression in 1999 as a Phil Manzanera album.", deals more with Paul William's piano than Phil's electric accomplice. It was first released in 1988 by Coda as the band Nowomowa. Surprisingly this PHIL MANZANERA "Nowomowa: Wasted Lands", which as the press ad release notes "This was recorded as the theme movie music to "The Wasted Lands". Jazz oriented, epic symphonic like compositions and movie focus format restraint Phil Manzanera's usual "latin" urges, and as I noticed again, for good! The band's name is Polish for 'The New Age'ĬD Expression Records - EXVP11CD (1999, Europe) Reissued as a Phil Manzanera album Andy Grossart / bass, synth bass, fretless bass, percussion Releases informationĬompiled from the soundtrack for the film "The Wasted Lands" Paul Williams / piano, Kurzweil 250, Kawai MIDI M8000 Phil Manzanera / acoustic, electric & MIDI guitars, drum programming Noah's Ark: Noah's Ark / Urbania (reprise) (6:35) Whole Earth TV Show: Con Sequences / Nowomowa (10:10)Ĩ.
