Rune Guneriussen


I think Norwegian artist Rune Guneriussen deserves a mention. I’m especially fond of the series “A natural selection” – These moody, mystic and colourful images are absolutely beautiful. I would like have the to above hanging in my living room. See more of his work at his website, and follow him on twitter.

Why should I stay here?

Do yourself a favour, plug in a decent pair of speakers or headphones.
This post might seem a bit weird. I just wan’t to express my excitement towards Radiohead and especially the number Weird Fishes. This must be the best piece of music ever written. I’m sitting here sobbing. To whom it may concern: I would like to have this track played at my funural.
In the deepest ocean
The bottom of the sea
Your eyes
They turn meWhy should I stay here?
Why should I stay?I’d be crazy not to follow
Follow where you lead
Your eyes
They turn meTurn me on to phantoms
I follow to the edge of the earth
And fall off
Everybody leaves
If they get the chance
And this is my chanceI get eaten by the worms
And weird fishes
Picked over by the worms
And weird fishes
Weird fishes
Weird fishesYeah I
I’ll hit the bottom
Hit the bottom and escape
Escape
And I
I’ll hit the bottom
Hit the bottom
Hit the bottom and escape
Escape

Thinking big in a small place

With a land mass of 1,104 km2 and a population of seven million people, Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Apartments are small and expensive. Architect Gary Chang decided to design a 32 m2 apartment to be able to change into 24 different rooms, all by just sliding panels and walls. He calls this the “Domestic Transformer.” I think his idea is pretty great. It reminds me of an old Disney classic, where Goofy, Mickey and Donald are traveling by camping-wagon.
The key idea is that everyone could look into their home more carefully and into how better to optimise their resources, because space is a resource. There is no use making your home as if it is a perfect show flat but at the same time never using the space.

Copenhagen summerdance




Last night I went to a free open air dance event in the beautiful surroundings of the Copenhagen Police Headquarters, with modern dance hosted by Dansk danseteater. I think it’s the first time I have witnessed this kind of entertainment, and I liked it. The play was divided into several smaller acts lasting from 4 to 15 minutes. Beijing Dance Theater was the nights biggest experience, with mind blowing music and incredible choreography.
