Someone seams to have been driving their snow mobile a little bit too fast and furious. This picture was taken on Friday night at 01:25 am as we were going back from the Hembyggdsgården.

We just discovered that we have access to bredband in the house, so we may try to set up a wireless point here. If we do, we can blog in the mornings as well as from the points we have set up downtown. We are about to set off…it is clear and -20!!!! [...]
Today has been a very exciting and interesting day in many ways. It started nice with a big, calm hotel style breakfast at the Sandstr
It turns out that Hasse, who’s been commenting quite a lot in this blog lives in Jokkmokk, not far from our “home base”. He dropped by to say hi and chat a bit.
He told us about the wireless at the schools here in Jokkmokk, and it sounds like the concert at v
When taking part of a “multi-medial” (the quotationmarks are used to indicate the somewhat non-multi character of my media) experiment of this kind one starts to think about how different types of media reach out differently.

I really shouldn’t complain about getting the stuff into the car – I should be happy that we have a car at all! The people at the car rental had double booked “our” car, so I’ve been all over town to find another one… (The rental people were helpful and drove me…). But now we [...]
Now an extended version of the Swedish article in Kuriren is available on their website.
I’m starting to worry a bit about trying to fit technical equipment, warm clothes and shoes, a table and four foldable chairs, seven (?) didgeridoos, kytesurfing equipment and three people into the car that we have rented to drive up to Jokkmokk. On our way back, we’ll also have to squeeze in an Anton and [...]
As I have started packing, my excitement level about tomorrow is going up and up! Earlier today many people in the lab were working together to get everything ready, Fredrik and the GPS page, me and Samuel getting the blog itself working like we want it to, Anton putting the finishing touches on the [...]
