Balder i bloggform

Balder - Bladet for sivilarbeidere har i skrivende stund starta en blogg. Balder har vært hjem for Fakta fra Verden siden 2003 og huser for tiden ymse som Sivile serier og I Fremtiden.
Med andre ord, sjekk det ut.

Sunday sketch

A facts from the World idea sketch, which I never did, because I was already featuring to many Idols jokes at the time. I guess by now it´s an anachronism. I sure hope so.

It´s about ordinary people jumping the Idols bandwagon and pandering for SMS-votes, so they won´t get expelled from society.

No future

Og der var det slutt for denne gang med I Fremtiden. Takk til alle lesere og støttespillere som har vært med på veien.
Vi skal nok ikke se bort i fra at det kommer mer, men for nå har Fremtiden en pause. Nyt arkivet.
Takk for nå.

So much much music, so little time

With the wealth of music available now, I realise I will always be a latecomer to great bands. Just check out this clip, it´s AWESOME!



Here´s another band which recently blew my mind, thanks to the miracle of Spotify:

Wussup?

Not much happening on the blog the last coupla weeks, apart from soundart n sketches. Thing is, I been busy putting the finnish Facts from the World-book together, plus TV-season has started again, so new comix for Boktid are due. Add to that the nice people of Fjord asked me to do a little thing for them.

So, the Facts-book might be the nicest one yet. 100 facts, culled from over six years of production. Also featuring a smashing intro-text from the one and only mr. Ville Hänninen.

The book will be out on publisher Arktinen Banaani. We are aiming for a release date at friday the 17th of April, so mark that day off in your calendars. Exact times and venues are still to be confirmed, but I heard a rumor that something might happen sometime at the Norwegian embassy...

Apart from that, I just handed over a four panel version of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn´s "A day in the life of Ivan Denisovitch" , it will be aired on FST5 the 31st this month. It´s a goodie, if I may say so myself.

Last but not least, Do check out this week´s edition of NYTliite, it features artwork from yours truly.
