Making a whole exhibition in a day, no plan, no ideas, just making art, was a hell of away to spend a day. 16 pieces all in all, so you'd have to say "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!.
Thank you so much to everyone who helped me make the MØRKETID exhibition, both on the production side, and the audience who participated in so many ways.
I made a video recently about struggling, about hitting the wall, about autistic burnout or bipolar depression. And the pressure of committing to this insane idea was ONE of the elements leading to the crash. But actually making the exhibition was a lot less pressured.
It felt natural, somehow.
Because of you.
All.
Thanks again.
MØRKETID will be hanging at Pakkboden at Bryggen for the next few months, together with some merch of mine by Skaparstovo and Dalk, and sharing the space with Edged Circle productions, Soli, Rigmor Hanken(Thanks for the photos) and others.
Pakkboden is THEIR space, so it will be open whenever they are there. Thank you so much for the privilege of opening your space to the world.
Dropped the album Wrong Number with @payphones.band last weekend. I brought back The Telebone from the first single for the album cover. We didn't do vinyl this time round, so I had 50 prints made in the correct size on nice thicc paper. Sold them at the release concert with a digital download of the album included.
Friday nov 14 – payphones' debut album Wrong Number drops
Saturday nov 15 – release concert at Viccen
Please join the party and check out the album, because making an album and releasing it and hosting a party is an exhausting and expensive hobby for three nerds who just wanna play some weird music and we are probably gonna have to take a break after this oh man now I'm going out to hang the last of the posters
PS: Also added the poster I made for the Oslo gig because I forgot to post that when it mattered.
STAVANGER. This Saturday. We’re coming for your twang glands and brisling. Los Twangheads lured us down after a November Bergen bender, and now we’re co-infecting Checkpoint Charlie. Tell your friends. Or enemies.
Bet AI can’t do this. Because why would it. Am I good at animating? Absolutely not. Did I stop to question whether I could or should? Also no.
Luckily, we’re marginally better at music (I hope). Supporting Slug Boys at Hulen, Saturday April 5th. Aka tomorrow x x x
(First song is a live recording on a phone from a @payphones.band concert last year, second is For Love from our @slugboys_oslo )
Bergen, I need a new job so I can buy more effect pedals. Been working in newspapers for the last few years doing text editing and editorial design, but I’m open to whatever fun (work-related) stuff you need done.
Skills include:
– Adobe CC slut
– Strong language skills in Norwegian and English (I know my dashes from my en dashes)
– Annoyingly punctual
– Good at communication (I can email and call people without making it awkward)
Weaknesses:
– I don’t know anything about football
– Allergic to jazz fusion
Dropped this surf punk number with @payphones.band today. I stole the 70s police radio off an old ad someone was selling on ebay. Spot the easter eggs? This song is one of the most fun but hardest to play mid set. As we will attempt again on Saturday at Statsraaden in Bergen. #hawaiifive0 #policebrutality #surfpunk
I LOSE MY HEAD – New single from @payphones.band today. This is the first single we have done together as a trio. I got to make the cover. And I got to bass it, obviously. (I call it the telebone). Come dance with us at the @mojoworkout summer party tomorrow!
