  • 25m2 SYRIA

    25m2 SYRIA


    For two weeks the installation was an initiative to promote Norway’s annual fundraising event “TV-aksjonen”. This year all donations went to the Red Cross, and people living in war and conflict.
    IKEA partnered with the Red Cross to promote the cause.

    25 m2 of Syria is an apartment at IKEA Slependen (flagship store in Norway).
    But it is not one of the “picture perfect” homes that are usually on display.
    The apartment is built as a replica of the real home of Rana and her family of 9 in Damascus, Syria.

    It was important to get the public involved, and to really understand where the help was going. So the decision to build
    a replica of a Syrian home at IKEA was made. IKEA’s vision is ‘to create a better everyday life for the may people’.
    So this partnership was both natural, giving and especially relevant for the cause.

    The iconic IKEA-posters and price tags told the story of how people live. Lacking food, medicines and access to clean water.
    Caught in the crossfire of Syria’s civil war. But most importantly: On every little tag we let the public know just how they could help.

  • EuroLapse

    EuroLapse


    The images used in this time lapse were taken in 2011 over the course of three summer months in Europe. My wife’s mother lives in Lithuania, just outside of the capital city Vilnius, so we decided to make it our homebase from the end of May through August while we traveled to various countries. Some of the places we had been to were new to us, others we had visited before. But all in all, it was an amazing summer and definitely an unforgettable part of our lives.

    We split our summer up into four trips. Between each of these trips, we’d fly back to Vilnius and relax for a week or so before packing up and heading off again. Our first trip took us to London. We spent three nights there before catching a quick flight over to Amsterdam. We spent another three nights (which became our default) in Amsterdam and then took a train down to Paris. We originally planned on three nights in Paris, but after day two, we realized how much more we wanted to do and that we didn’t have enough time. So we extended our stay and ended up being there for six nights. I can’t recall why, but for some reason, we had to cut the trip short and head back to Vilnius after Paris.

    Next on our list was Scandinavia (or at least part of it). Neither of us had been there before, so we were super pumped. We started with three nights in Stockholm, followed by three nights in Copenhagen, another three in Helsinki, and capped it off with a final three nights in Riga. We really wanted to go to Norway, but felt that it would require an entirely separate trip of its own, just to explore the fjords and all of the beautiful natural scenery. Stockholm was an amazing city and we both agreed that we could easily settle down there. Riga also blew us away and I feel like it’s one of the most underrated cities in all of Europe.

    After another week or two back in Vilnius, we headed to the island of Crete for a week at an all-inclusive resort. We took a day trip to Santorini, which consisted of the most hellish eight-hour round trip boat ride ever, but that’s another story. Definitely want to get back to Santorini, but we’d have to go for at least a few nights to make it worth it. Such a beautiful island.

    Back to Vilnius again for another week or so, and then we headed out to Italy. Our summer in Europe was ending soon, so we only had enough time to visit Cinque Terre for three nights, with one night in Milan on each end of that trip.

    The summer of 2011 was surreal. We visited so many places, saw so much, ate so much, and it all happened so quickly. Thank you to my amazing wife for being my little assistant and for having the patience to stand around waiting for all of these time lapses to finish!

  • Venezia

    Venezia


    Directed by Oliver Astrologo & Nils Astrologo – fb.com/oliver.astrologo

    Much has been made about the wonders of Venice, but few ever venture deep enough across its less touristy, yet still historical hidden places. Beyond hundreds of canals and a diverse architectural style, a secret facet of Venetian life lives on, in which the journey of hand crafting gondola wooden oars and loomed fabrics remains rooted in ancient folk traditions.
    This short film uncovers the secrets that have been handed down from father to son and projects you to the Venice that existed 500 years ago, immersing you in the extraordinary craftsmen’s veiled workshops that belong to a long lost era.

    This project has been produced in partnership with René Caovilla, the master Venetian shoemaker who has overwhelmed the world with his creations.

    This video is a homage to the city of Venice on behalf of René Caovilla – www.renecaovilla.com

  • Berlin Hyperlapse

    Berlin Hyperlapse


    This video shows the result of a photographic journey to berlin
    from 12 may – 18 may 2012.

    I´ve spent 6 days in Berlin with excessive work, but the last 4 months
    were even harder. Whenever I had some time,
    I had to import and customize the NEF files before I
    equalized them with the great LR-TIMELAPSE from Gunther Wegner. (www.lrtimelapse.com)
    (Adobe Lightroom is necessary)
    The observed jpeg had then to be droped into virtual dub and were rendered as avi.
    When this was done, I had to stabilize the sequenzes manually frame by frame (AE motion tracker) and rendered each of them in 3 different sizes: (4928×3264 pixels, 1920×1080 pixels, 1024×768 pixels)
    Last but not least the snippets were edited fitting to the beautiful title “Diving Through The Blue” by
    the respectable composer and musician Valentin Boomes.

    How to knit a purl (P) stitch (Continental method)


    In this DROPS video we show how to knit a purl (P) stitch using the Continental method.

    If you knit all rows back and forth you will get what’s called garter stitch, if you alternate between one row with knitted stitches and one row of purled stitches you will get what’s called stockinette stitch.
    The method of making purl stitches that we are showing here is the continental method.

  • NYC Streets Metamorphosis

    NYC Streets Metamorphosis


    There’s nothing more dramatic than looking back five or ten years at Streetfilms footage to see how much the streets of New York City have changed. In this wonderful montage, check out the incredible changes at Times Square, Herald Square, the Brooklyn waterfront, and many other places that outgoing NYC DOT Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan and her staff have intrepidly transformed.

    We have similarly high hopes for Mayor Bill de Blasio as he takes office, and look forward to what he and new NYC DOT Commissioner Polly Trottenberg accomplish. Even though so much has changed, the vast majority of our streets still need to be rethought and redesigned. We need more space for efficient modes, slower speed limits, and traffic calming for our most vulnerable citizens. I hope this short gets them excited to top the transportation record of the Bloomberg administration.

    Please note: This is but a short sample of the before-and-after footage at our disposal. Seriously, we could have put together a one hour version!
