my blog is turning two today - hooray! to celebrate i’m giving away a handful of film prints, a mix of contax photos taken during the past year. the winner will be drawn next wednesday. just leave a comment to participate.

thanks for stoping by this place during the past year! i really appreciate all your comments and feedback - it means a lot and makes me want to keep doing this : )

the winner is irene from såg ungefär ut så här ! i’ll send you some postcards and prints, just e-mail me your address. thank you so much for all your comments everybody, wish i could send you all a postcard!

space invaders is the first video game i can recall playing. my father bought a pc when i was about 6 and my brother and i would play games like commander keen, pong, sim city and doom on it. there was no interface at that time so you would have to write a command similar to the one in this post title to access the game. . later on there was particularly one game that really fascinated me called myst. it’s a very beautiful adventure game where you are immersed into a fictional deserted world full of mystery.

the reason why i came to think of my childhood fascination with computer games is that i recently got a new phone and found myself playing one of the rather simple games on the phone again and again. silly huh?

thank you so much for all your comments to my previous post! it really means a lot.

hello! i’m doing some serious color sampling today as i’m going to have my illustrations printed on another printer which handles the colors different from what i’m used to. something very satisfying about color arranging don’t you think? i should hurry up and get this done but i’m having such a good time with my coffee and colors samples : )

have a great friday dear blog readers! i’m going to the movies later with a friend to see the sequel to the first stieg larsson film called “the girl who played with fire” and i’m really looking forward.

i’ll answer all your lovely comments tomorrow when i have more time!

i thought i was going to do my weekword contribution today but ended up rearranging my blog design all day…there’s birds in the header now, no weird free floating dots in the sidebar and the photos are bigger - because bigger is better! after having seen on other blogs how changing the image size really gives another viewing experience i desided to make my photos bigger too. ahh feels good with a summer blog cleaning.

today i have had this blog for one year!! actually it feels like much longer - but in a good way! can hardly remember what it was like not having a blog. anyway it’s been a lot of fun and very inspirational to “meet” so many great people in this space and i’m very grateful for all the comments and the interest you have taken in my blog. thank you so much!

well i thought i would do a small giveaway to celebrate the occasion. leave a comment to take part and next tuesday i will draw a winner. i’m giving away three yashica prints selected especially for the winner and also a blog birthday version of the panda print which is currently exhibited in brinja’s shop. size A4.

- kiwi: thanks kiwi : ) the artist is called karoline h. larsen, but this one is done as a collaboration under the name collective string project. you can read more here. a great week to you also!
- parisa mahmoudi: me too - those are the best exhibitions. happy to know you liked the photos : )
- emilia: ja, tag ind og se den, kan varmt anbefales
- lotte: hehe ja en ordentlig omgang snor, er også ret fascineret af den gule bunke gard i det første billede.
- ai: it was a bit of a challenge to walk over and under the strings but was a experience and it made people interact. i see your point about the installation being a good ice breaker on a first date : )
- epe: thanks epe!
- kinako: yeah i have been going to quite a lot of art exhibitions lately - must try and keep that up! really is a nice thing to do on a day off. hope you got to see some art!
- nathalie: thanks and yes, very simple but effective installation.
- chelsea: yeah pretty nice : ) i’m not complaining
- anairam: you are so right about that, didn’t think about that being in there but is is so james bond laser beam like : ) or maybe it was oceans 11 they had to do that…or more likely a whole range of action movies ; )
- anna: it really was a nice surprise that you had to participate with the installation…i’m guessing that now it will probably be a lot more elaborated and harder to walk through as people have been hanging up more string. about the camera, strange that you have the same problem only opposite…i think i just need to stop dropping my camera, can’t be good..
- ida: i remember those kinds of scavenger hunts too! and yes, not that fun to clean up afterwards : )
- kristina: hehe jeg glemmer også at skrive på dansk hele tiden. ja de minder om laserstråler! det gav en god 3D effekt at stå inde midt i garnvirvarret.
- ne: tak tak

as i have mentioned before me and my friend kaja set up the website for the danish menswear brand humör. there’s a new collection out in bold colours! i really like the setting they chose for the shoot and the dramatic lighting.

last year my friend kaja and i set up the website for the danish clothing brand humör. they just launched a new colorful menswear collection, which is now online. check it out!

today has been another day in bed. at least i had time to have a look at my website and change the overall look, which has been on my mind for some time. as you can see it is very similar to the blog theme. the intention being that the two should seem connected….still not quite finished with it yet.
