A few days late comes the pictures from the new year’s party that me and M hosted.

We were at it until 5:40, and had a terrific time.

Thanks everyone for coming!

I just found these fantastic HDR photographs of the Icelandic coast, and thought that I should share them with anyone who has not yet made up their mind as whether or not to join us to Iceland in April 2009 (so far I think 8 people are coming).

Unfortunately, I do not know who the original photographer is, but I found the pictures on this site.

Yesterday we were at two parties (and in between a party of our own)

First at Andreas, turning 30 – Relaxed, nerdy and fun. Really tasty carrot cake!

Then at Anders, turning 40 – Loud, wild and fun. By the time we got there, everyone was already quite drunk, and shortly thereafter the cigars came out (Literally, not metaphorically).

Somehow I ended up being DJ for a part of the night, and actually got a lot of compliments for my music choices.

This Friday me and some friends went to an event taking place in the Stockholm Culture House.

The small 30SEK fee gave you entrance to a large amount of short concerts, performances, movies, exhibitions and such.

Especially good were:

• George Kentros & Matthias Peterson, with an interpretation of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons that involved sampling a live violin and playing back distorted loops – Industrial Violin!
• Abalone Dots, playing bluegrass with a touch of Swedish Folk Music – Softgrass.
• Short film festival – Oue!
• Klubb Sunkit – the club for odd and forgotten pop music – Muzak, Easy Listening, Exotica and Swedish Dance Band.

After a couple of hours we all needed to go somewhere more quiet, so we went to Kasper for beer.
