Kraftwerk - part 1


The talented young guys in our office started asking questions about the beginning of electronic music. Since I'm so old and wise I told them about the Theremin, Robert Moog and all that jazz and not surprisingly I ended up praising Kraftwerk. Found this one, Die Roboter, on German TV from 1978.

Räsunda


Lots of talk about football + Stockholm in Spain lately. Last Saturday Spain was defeated by 2-0 and yesterday Brazil played a friendly against Ecuador at Råsunda stadium (2-1). Funny to see how hard it is to spell "Råsunda Stadium". The most common version is Räsunda, in some cases Rösunda and the best one so far is Rusunda - spelled like it sounds in Spanish.

Mut rules... and the chef


One of the nicest bars/restaurants in Barcelona, Mut, is located aprox 75 m. from my flat. That I like. It struck me today that the Philipine chef not only is a really skilled one, he also looks really mean all dressed in black. If I only was a casting director...

Gitmo - The New Rules Of War


Lukas, a friend of mine, was part of the team that made this award-winning documentary about US military investigation methods last year. The trailer is kind of funny but the film itself is really scary... and impacting.

Trees Lounge


I saw Steve Buscemi's Trees Lounge at Stockholm Film Festival in 96 and it was fantastic. Steve himself was there to present it which was cool. However it never got distribution in Scandinavia which was a real pity. Yesterday I downloaded it and it's still a great indie film.

Housewarming Fiesta


Niklas, Henrik and Marco threw a housewarming party last Saturday. Lot's of talk about electronic music, internet's impact on film distribution and people with mixed nationalities. In the photo Jonas is trying to convince Niklas... don't remember. But it was fun.

Collioure


Went to see my aunt, uncle and cousin + family last weekend in the lovely French village Collioure. Bought a nice bottle of Banyuls, the local sweet red wine.
