« Previous EntriesA real-life researcher
Tuesday, January 28th, 2020Hello. My name is Janne, and I´m a researcher. The past years, as the market for new-built offshore vessels have gone down, and the shuffeling of jobs in the theatre-section has led to less (paid) artistic work for me, I have gone back to my “roots”. Taking all my experience and knowledge both from the artistic […]

Workshops in Porto
Monday, February 4th, 2019Never too late to try something new, right? Like teaching composition-workshops to music-students!!

Sao Tome & Principe
Sunday, February 3rd, 2019Paradise. The most beautiful place I think I´ve ever been. With such beautiful and interesting people. Certainly one of the greenest. Both literally and metaphorically speaking. A small island-state, quite autonomous, ins West-Africa. Only 7500 inhabitants. That´s less than Bømlo! The rich nature was overwhelmingly beautiful. It was hot and humid and rich and green […]

Amsterdam
Monday, May 7th, 2018Only a few days in Amsterdam this time. But I had time to meet up with colleagues from Holland and make some GSO-plans.

GSO in CHILE
Wednesday, April 18th, 2018I´ve only seen a small part of Chile: Antofagasta. I am here on my GSO-tour, to hold workshops in GSO eco-design (courtesy of HVL) . Antofagasta is one of the most exotic places I´ve visited. Exotic as in strangest. The people here are sweet and nice and have taken such good care of me, and […]
GSO in BRAZIL
Monday, April 16th, 2018It´s been a dream for years, of course, going to Brazil. This big, bold and beautiful country. Expecting all senses to be on overload, with the music, the vibrant colors, the rich nature, the spices… And to a large degree, I was right. Even though I came AFTER the carnival,… … and the food is […]
