Yvo Warmers and me, AKA [!!!?] made a short documentary about the consciousness of capitalism in Leipzig, Germany. I made a website for the project, so that the participants could see the finished film when it was finished.

Open space prosess, Leipzig, Germany

2011 November 30
 

Logo

Hooray! I was accepted as a participant to a fabulous open space process in Leipzig, Germany called Platforma11.

Valerie Waldow, a positive, energenic, smart, superaware and superpolitical German woman told me about the underground in Berlin and Leipzig. She told about massive coalissions between culturally active people of numerous disciplines. That, exactly that, is the sort of activity that I am the most interested in. The more the merrier! She was working on a new experimental project with an international network, reflecting on the topics “art, politics and education” and their relationship to one another. I wrote an application. It was accepted. Read on>>

For over a year ago I made some illustrations for the television series called “Hvem tror du at du er?”. It was directed by Ketil Karlsen, produced by Monster Entertainment and screened on NRK. It was a sucess! As the show now has been screened I am free to post my illustrations here.


Ship blueprints for documentary

2011 February 4
 

I made some detailed drawings for the documentary Imagining Emanuel by Thomas Østbye. I was to make a drawing of a boat we didn’t have an exact descripion of. So I had to do a lot of research to find out the right kind of boat. Even then, I could not get hold of the blueprints for the actual real boat, so I had to make a realistic but fictuous design. Is this wrong? I don’t think so. After all the research I know that the ship Emanuel rode on was quite similar.

Music video for Karl Seglem

2010 November 3
 

Carsten Aniksdal and me just finished making a music video for Karl Seglem. The name of the song is Old Movement. We recorded it in Oslo with a simple, but abstact, concept. Movement of random objects from one cut to the next. This way we hoped to surpass conventional logic and enter the surreal. Our budget was small as usual, but we got good help from friends. We invited them to bring an object, select a mask and spend half an hour with us and our Casio slow motion camera. Check it out!

Critical Mass Poster

It´s been a long time since I have updated my website! New things are happening and I am participating in various longer projects that I don´t want to show until all the parts are finished. Sorry! Anyways, I can show you a poster I made for the Critical Mass in Oslo.

Critical mass is a flashmob that has spread from San Fransisco to Oslo. Hundreds of bicycle riders meet and ride together throught the streets.

Hydrogen-car monster for Electric Aid

2009 April 30
 

I drew this to support the activities of my good friend Leif Richard Bones Egge who is very idealistic about electric cars. But he doesn’t like hydrogen cars because they are like wolves in sheepskin. Apparently they don’t pollute at all since water is the only waste product, but the production of their platinum fuel cells causes extreme amounts of polluting gases. The hydrogen car is really a crutch for the oil companies to lean on and is not a serious attempt to save the world. Electric cars is the answer! So beware of the Hydrogen monster!
