And quickly they pass. Today I finally finished last years financial reports and my incomme tax return. Wohoo! Now I’m here at night, Signhild is out of town, so I’m spending my time catching up on all the boring parts of work, as well as doing some thinking and sketching out some new ideas.
Been thinking, perhaps I could go back into politics? I mean, It’s somewhere where I kinda always have been heading, just never did anything out of it. And with this years election and the current state of the world, perhaps it’s time to pitch in and try to help out making it a better place. I’m not saying I have all the solutions, or that my ideas are better than anyone elses, but we could talk about it, discuss it properly and see if we might just come up with something useful together?
In other news, started some work on my gallery page, I have the idea now, so when I find time to build it it will be back up and running. Should proboably fix the problems with the galleries on lighting as well… and update the projets page, the services page and some other stuff.. and get cracking with the history section as well.. see, lot’s off things to do. And that’s just outside of work.
Anyhow, a rather pointless update today as you can see. Catch me some other day or in the real life.
Well, into the mines we went. On Monday the 27th of April, we overloaded Signhild’s parent’s car with cables, rigging and parcans, picked up Eyal in Oslo and headed for the mines. For a week, we rigged, ran cables, rigged some more and solved about all the worlds problems over lunch until our performers arrived on Friday the 1st of May. Then we rehearsed, re-rigged and re-focused, solved some more problems, ate some more lunch and finally, on Sunday the 3rd of May, our audience arrived.
Handpicked, specially invited for the occasion, either because they could give constructive critisicm or because they have money, which we want, a small group of about 20 people, including press and local media, got to see the 45 minute long work-in-progress which is fittingly named “innenfor bortenfor” (meaning “inside faraway”). It went as well as it could have, we got the part 2 front page of Drammens Tidene, a large article in the local newspaper and coverage on the local TV station.
Now, all we have to do is apply for some mor funding, find some more audience and get our band of artists, performers, designers and technicians againg and we should have a full scale show in about a year or so!
If this all sounds interesting, get in touch and I shall send you all the information you will require for a happy and healthy life!
What a crazy week. Mines mines and more mines. Show is tomorrow, wish us luck. I think it will be good! So many clever people gathered together, all this creative energy in one place, oh how I miss it! What great pleasuers can be derived from just working incredibly hard. Trick is to make sure you do the right kind of work I guess… the stuff that makes you feel good!
The stuff that makes other people feel good… oh how I love theatrics!
Good nite. More on the mining project later. H.
