Workshop at Hyper Island

Just before christmas Emma and I held a workshop for digital media students (DM12) at Hyper Island in Karlskrona and Stockholm. The intent was to give the students the opportunity to create a lot of work by hand in one day, not thinking too much about the result. The day was set up like a visual brainstorm in different stages, with a limited amount of material and time. They all produced some really nice work! It seemed like they had a lot of fun to, I know we did!

The Sweded Session

sweded

I’m participating with a ”sweded” movie to The Sweded Session exhibition, opening at Krets in Malmö this Saturday. It will be a night to remember!

KRETS presents
THE SWEDED SESSION
January 9 – February 7, 2010

Opening reception with the artists
January 9, 7-10 pm
Live: Moon & Sun (NL)

The Session is a group of eight international artists and designers, based in Amsterdam, that makes a thematic, interdisciplinary fanzine since September 2007. The Session does not work with a standard form or a recurrent basic theme, but produces on the basis of a regular process; per session, (usually) one of the eight determines the theme. This person is also responsible for the editing, the design and the production. Per session a number of guests are invited.

For this edition The Session will be working around the theme ‘Sweded’, referring to the Gondry movie ‘Be Kind Rewind’, in which the main characters start recreating films using themselves as actors and cheap special effects, calling it ‘a sweded film’.

The Sweded Session can be an imitation, a copy, a paraphrase, a re-make, a new-make, a re-enactment of something (anything) already existing. It can also deal with the direct association with Sweden since the Session is leaving Amsterdam for Malmö for a week; any direct involvement/interpretation of Sweden itself would consequently become something ‘sweded’. The Sweded Session will be executed during the week at KRETS in Malmo and The Session will invite local artists to participate and contribute with works, resulting in a publication and an exhibition.
