Today, a special post I should have posted long ago. No music but a few weeks back I had the honour to be interviewed by the great Amsterdam-based writer, designer, and web-developer who likes to draw, Maisa Imamović for the website networkcultures.org
It was a very fruitful experience, a nice chat with a very cool person which lead to trying figuring out what this blog is all about. Here is the link, I strongly suggest to check out other articles on the blog as well.
I add a few illustrations I made in Norway for free, to compensate for the lack of music which will be arriving next week sharp! The first one represents the origin of painting by Kora of Sicyon, daughter of Butades, as described by Pliny the Elder. The second is taken from the Fanitullen I talked about last week, the pattern on the woman's sleeve is inpired by the traditional costumes of the Høyanger region. It represents the mountains around, and is normally underlined with some waves symbolizing the sea that is also around. These costumes are worn for special occasions where can be also heard the Fanitullen. The last one is the souvenir of a Panagiri.
Check out time is 10h30 no matter what.
