Hanging in there
Building hanging devices for photos is my new special skill. The kind of hooks I had in mind simply don’t exist.. However I knew the way I wanted it to be and no other option seemed better so I had to design my own hooks from scratch, MacGyver style. This thing is going to be off the hook! (haha)
Tomorrow the press is coming for their special preview, Sunday is the big day. It’s been a pretty hectic time lately and I haven’t gotten a lot of sleep, but I have really been enjoying! Now wish me luck and I hope I get to hang out with you on Sunday!
Don’t leave me hanging!
Eh, I think I need some sleep. Goodnight.
Albin
Albin Gromer – Utan Dig
Hemmagjord EP (2006)
This song wasn’t featured on YouTube so I uploaded it and I am guessing that my friends who collaborate with Albin won’t mind. It’s my favourite from his first EP, Hemmagjord. He was just 16 at the time, and released another EP entitled “Därefter” two years later. Now he’s 20 and has just released two singles from his new album Jag Kände Mig Så Låg. They are being played and appreciated all over, however people don’t know that this Malmö kid already had great skills some years ago. He actually wrote the lyrics, played, sang and recorded Hemmagjord in his own room. I remember how happy I was about it when I found it some time in 2007 while still living in Warsaw. So sweet. The new album is also cute and it’s currently playing in my iPod. I’m enjoying – It’s Malmö, it’s our chilled out dialect, it’s all about love, and it’s incredibly simple and sincere. I like!
Here’s the acoustic version of a new single that was released in November this year, and a sweet video to go with it:
Albin Gromer – Så många gånger nu (Aukustisk version)
Jag Kände Mig Så Låg
(planned release in February 2011)

Varanasi, India. 2010
This man was following one of the frequent processions through Varanasi where dead bodies are being carried to the place where they are burned to be thrown into the Ganges. I had my camera out and stood by myself watching the people passing by. The man stopped in front of my lens and gave me this look, then nodded a “thank you” when I took the picture, gave me a quick smile, and walked on. They appreciate having their picture taken in India.
Fix
I came to dance.
Someday
Star Heart
Two small torches and a power cut in town.. :) Anjuna beach, Goa, India 2010
My days are passing and they are packed with music, photos, work and snow. I am enjoying.
Bebe – Tu silencio
Pafuera Telarañas (2004)
Ahora no estás aquí,
ahora no estoy aquí,
pero el silenció es la más elocuente forma de mentir.
En tu silencio habita el mío
y en alguna parte de mi cuerpo habitó
un trozo de tu olor,
en tu silencio habita el mío
y en alguna parte de mis ojos habitó
un trozo de dolor.
Ahora estás aquí,
ahora estoy aquí,
abrázame para que piense alguna vez en ti.
Other than that I’ve just been completely obsessed with the Stevie Nicks video that I posted yesterday, I just can’t get tired of her voice and that perfectly banal song. It’s been on repeat since I came back home from work. haha.. Right now I’m uploading my photos to the ftp of the printinghouse, it’s been difficult to choose which photos to display and which not to, when you love the moment of taking a picture you develop a special relation to a lot of your shots, having to reject them then suddenly feels very personal, like actually killing your darlings..
