My good friend and Tibe T colleague Aasmund Reitan Hegglid and myself where kindly invited to Zagreb to hold a typography workshop at the 20th of may. Of course we rapidly replied with the CapsLock pressed in: YES! We are going to hold the workshop for the cream of the crop of advertising agencies in Croatia, at the event How to wow. We´re really looking forward to this event. We´re plotting the event as we speak, and it will be nine whole hours in typography heaven. If you are in Zagreb, be a clever type-junkie and come join us for a day of fun.

My sister is a photography student and her friend is a design student. Both at NKF in Trondheim. They decided to play with typography the other day. The result is this picture of my sister. I love it.

I was looking through my archives today and stumbled upon this typographical piece I did in 2009. And since I found it, why not share it with you guys.

I´m an Art Director at Tibe T advertising agency. I got that job recently, and my first job here was to make a logo for the musical Rock ´n Roll Wolf for Trøndelag Teater. The musical is based on the movie Mama. The lead characters is a goat and of course the wolf. And everything goes down in the forrest. My friend and work mate Aasmund suggested that I should go for a walk in a forrest. So to make the logo, I went to the forrest and found some tree bark. So the typography was made with bark. Here is the prosess:

Played with chalk with my daughter and her friends yesterday. They wrote their names. I wrote:

One of the Cmykkel girls and her boyfriend, art dude and musician Tore Reisch, made an alphabet of pine a while back. Tore made a piece of art with it. Nice. I´ve been a Reisch fan since I first saw a painting by him, on a wall in Stallmesterveien in Trondheim back in ’99. Cool to se local people play with type!

helloVARSKO! is history. The event was so smooth. People enjoyed the day from A to Z. VARSKO!, Kreativt Forum Trondheim and Grafill Trøndelag, helped us to unfold an amazing happening. Two great and inspiring talks from one of our favorite sweeds Robert Lindström from North Kingdom and Spanish designers Alex Trochut & Marta Cerdà.

Aasmund and Alex preparing the equipment. Soon the magic begins.

A few days ago we booked the last band for our event. We were suppose to revile the name of the band next monday, but we can´t wait. We´re to eager to tell you about our beautiful booking. The Trondheim located, Binary pop playing band, The Last Ninja is the pixel-topping on the cake.

The Last Ninja is a band who makes their music with, among other things, old Nintendo machines. They are fast. They are visual. The rumor on the street tells us that they will bring some really sweet graphics to raise their show to a higher level. An unlocked level. We hope you have a secret extra life, because this is going to be a toll for your dancing shoes.

While you wait, see this music video ten times in a row.

Become a fan of The Last Ninja on FaceBook.

helloVARSKO! gets better for each day. Yay!
