Twilight

In the twilight, some cats are grey.

I saw this video yesterday. Information Dystopia.

It didn’t change my life, but it bloody hell helped me wake up.

Raw

Raw, the event, happens tonight. I am not going there, even though I know that I would very much enjoy it. I will enjoy those kinds of events soon enough. Rather spend my hours in the company of such music than in the company of gnomes and trolls, or pixels on a screen.

I took a walk through Copenhagen just before. Vesterbro. Istedgade. I took the bus to Nord-Vest which is the new up-and-coming part of town. This city.

Elsewhere I wrote about a book I recently read about Copenhagen. I follow that path. I will work on formulating my questions. What it is I want to learn from this.

But yes, I am a city boy. Too bad that I have been exploring this city so little last years, since I moved here again in july 2006. Two years now. Two years here, and knowing deep inside that there is so much I want to see here, get from this place, and yet different fucked-up circumstances influenced me too much, I let them influence me, and I turned my attention inwards, to my own bellybutton and angst, instead.

Today I made the deal for my next living space, which will suit me much better than where I am now. Where I have been since February. Bicyclemark will know what I talk about - he is one of few who has seen the place.

The new gig is in Vesterbro, which is that old raw part of Copenhagen that became too hip some years ago and today hosts a mixture of well-to-do families on shopping spree to those independent children fashion stores and etc, and drug addicts and prostitutes who creep in the corners, or crawl right into your face.

My future part of Vesterbro is a good street - I know it well. It is located in-between water, shopping, train, bus, art galleries, and etc. My rent will even be lower than what I pay now.

Annyway. The City. Me and the City. It feeds me, I feed it. Or, I am supposed to. Be audience at those events that doesnt get much audience. Bring my camera and do some reporting for my own pleasure.

I wanted to share this with you, Evie. May your rotten slugs never stop shining.

Science!

blogathon

got ten more minutes here before I move on to something else.

1) I am preparing for a tv show that I will do twice a month. It will be shown on local tv here in Copenhagen as well as online. I would personally like to make it something that really is a bit different than - say - a talk show about new media. Or a DIY show on how you can build your own computer. These concepts have been done too many times. I might just name it “Le Raymonde” or something wacky. Ok, I might not, haha. But I am interested in the larger ramifications of these tools, and how we use them. The “social use of social media”. *barf*. I want to have some sociologists and anthropologists in the game as consultants. Know of any? I know this girl here in Denmark who might be interested.

2) I am slowly preparing for a situation that allows me to move from Denmark. Not back to Norway (heaven forbid) but somewhere else. Move somewhere where I can feel the life in the air.

3) I miss Italy.

scrapbook

scrapbooks.

your blog as your virtual scrapbook.

the problem is the audience. most people like to keep their scrapbooks ’safe’. you make it, show it to some friends, at a cafe perhaps, and thats it. it is something you can develop. play with.

after on/off blogging since 99, and videoblogging since 04, i come to realize that

well,

i dont feel comfortable with showing my scrapbook to the world anymore.

privacy, please.

here on evilvlog, it was pretty much the anon that made me lose interest, along with a few other things.

on my own site - meh.

the last couple of years I have kept returning to this concept, which I never really got to finish or present. i guess you could call it the next version of the “flashing text / images” style of videos.

video scrapbook of material where most of it is not shot by me, but where I still use it for aesthetic reasons - - or other reasons.

do you have a digital scrapbook?

It’s a BLAST FROM THE PAST!

I tend to look back during the month of July as it’s my birthday month. In August, I’ll go back to our regularly scheduled programming. With is to say, nothing.

Is Vlog Europe Dead?
