Last week our colleagues at Aalborg Congress Center were kind enough to donate almost 100 cinema-chairs to us in Platform4 - which we accepted immediately. But funnily enough, it turned out that regional tv-news channel TV2-Nord wanted to run the hand-over as an evening story, and so it went. Watch the segment here.Last week our […] Read More…
Today I am doing two talks: One inspirational talk for Region Nordjylland staff under my 'Interaction and virtuality: Bits vs. atoms' theme, and the other on a Platform4/Shareplay presentation for the Business Leader Forum (ErhvervslederForum). Especially the first one if fun, since I only rarely get hired to give non-project based talks - and that […] Read More…
Tomorrow, I have been asked to give a presentation to the Copenhagen Municipality Youth Culture Countil at Bolsjefabrikken as part of a session to discuss the temporary cultural usage of empty buildings.

Today there is a somewhat extensive interview with me and my buddy Kristian Ravn-Ellestad in the regional Nordjyske newspaper. The main topic is the discussion of what this 2011-season in Platform4 will bring forward now that we've got 1,5 million kroners on hand from the Kunstrådet grant - even if we haven't actually started the […] Read More…
So 2010 ends with great news; Platform4, the art and technology venue/co-working space that I am co-developing, has received a grant of 1.5 million Danish Kroners, equal to EUR 200,000 from Statens Kunstråd (National Art Council in Denmark). The money has been given to our new project titled PLATFORM4.0.FUTURE, that focuses on - during 2011-2012 […] Read More…
