My Books

alladeen

I went to see Alladeen with Hanne-Lovise this evening. Five actors, many projectors, several technicians: it was theatre and video and animations all on top of each other, extravagant and often quite effective. The website is a separate project and perhaps even […]

Uncle Roy All Around You

Tomorrow a mixed reality game/performance will be mixing on-the-street players in West Bromwich in the UK and online players like yourself, with the aim to find objects in a virtual yet real city. It’s called Uncle Roy All Around You and is […]

misunderstanding

A Whole Lotta Nothing points to an astonishing example of how most people don’t get blogs. For some reason a blog post briefly mentioning having watched an episode of Overhauling, which seems to be a makeover show for cars (!), is the […]
