with the new architecture in copenhagen as a scene, a group of young men (team JiYo) conquor the urban jungle and move in the city totally effortless and without obstacles. It´s an interesting view on how we move, the fluent cityscape that offers whatever the people want. The movie will be available on DVD from March 2010 here.

Music video from the fantastic danish band Kitty Wu. I love their sound, which is very melancholy. Clips from the movie “Mechanical love” by Phle Ambo, where a japanese professor is making a robotic clone of himself and his daughter. He doesn´t find it scary, but his daughter is very afraid of her new, mechanical dad. The clones are very vivid but have dead eyes. They react then they are touched and at night, when they are now active, they are wrapped in plastic and are bendings backwards with wide open eyes. When they are turned on, they quickly move to an upright position and look surprised.

Act Surprised by Kitty Wu.

A video from Polarforsker.com from the newly released synesthesia ep. I like the atmosphere and the slow pictures.

Rem Koolhaas Houselife and La Maison en Petites Cubes

Movie recommendations.

I saw these movies recently at my school, in a movie association called DAFF, where I am part of the “board”. It just means that I sometimes get to decide which movies to be showed. We show architecture related movies two times a month.

Houselifde follows the staff of the house, which Rem Koolhaas built near Bordeaux in France. You follow a very charming femme de ménage, a gartner, window cleaners and others who struggle with some of the details and curiosities of the house. A very funny and charming movie:)

We also showed La Maison en Petites Cubes, which won an Oscar (2008) for best animated short film. You can see the entire movie (12:06 minutes) here:

Photos from a trip to Berlin in October. My first trip to Berlin, it was much bigger than expected. I have to go there again. I love that there is so much history everywhere, and I love that they are not afraid to touch the historic buildings.

Highline urban park new york city

The Highline in NYC – I think it´s a great idea! A green trail through the city on old trails that are not used as traffic line any longer. In dense cities it is often difficult to create new green spaces, but in this way, where you elevate the green space it is possible. I also think it is good to keep the old trails, because they have a story and in someway they belong to area´s history.
