November 30, 2005 pollas

After an excel­lent launch party Sat­ur­day, we launched the exhi­bi­tion site for Tech­ni­cal Break­down — and now it works. The exhi­bi­tion itself invites the inhab­i­tants of Copen­hagen to meet exper­i­men­tal con­tem­po­rary art on a street level. The lis­ten­ing posts are … Con­tinue read­ing →

GTD at home

November 29, 2005 pollas

Now this guy has a point (or an expe­ri­ence sim­i­lar to mine):Now, the biggest issue is this: At home, in no place, there is some­thing that keeps my Next Actions. I have absolutely no trusted system.For the past cou­ple years, I’ve been strug­gling to turn my home into a home — instead of the office sur­rounded by kitchen and couches it seems to be right now.

Cross thinking

November 25, 2005 pollas

Ste­fan Andrén (SE), Senior Designer, Nike­Lab, USA is talk­ing on “a designer’s way to break habits” — or rather doing a Nike show­case, putting a lot of fancy prod­ucts on the big screen, show­ing some video commercials.He’s sum­ma­riz­ing the con­cepts behind the devel­op­ment but some­how it just turns into mar­ket­ing speak. maybe it’s because he’s got so many pretty pic­tures to show… Con­tinue read­ing →

Technical Breakdown

November 25, 2005 pollas

While we’re not unaware of the poten­tial tongue-in-cheek-ness of a pos­si­ble site error in con­nec­tion with this very project (and any errors we might make, hell we’re excused no mat­ter what), I have to admit that it’s just a funny result of the lack of com­mu­ni­ca­tion between the groups prepar­ing the exhi­bi­tion — I’m one of the groups and didn’t get the site ready on time.
