Me and my friend Christian Albrigsen spent three days on this monster. Its Kaupanger Stave Church from 1180. We did not burn it, it melted away.

I just came back from Paris and the opening of the exhibition Act With New Air by MMW Architects of Norway. I have worked for two months with MMW to make this magazine that is a part of the exhibition. I do think you can get a copy at DogA or by contacting me. I am super happy about the project and it was a pleasure doing it. Contains interviews with Børre Sæthre, DOLK, Jan Skomakerstuen and Nina Edwards, fashionstories by Steffen Aaland, Knut Bry and me and so much more!

I did a poster for Revolver, you can also see it as an ad in Natt&Dag, the latest issue.

My first photostory on print. The new magazine called Act With New Air by MMW Architects of Norway for their exhibition in Paris in December 2009/January 2010. Ok, so I made the magazine and hired myself, but hey. Thank you Jon. A Gaasland for making the KABOOMS.

Its been a while. Thats because I am working on a couple of huge things at the moment. I am making a magazine for MMW Architects for this exhibition they are having in Paris in December. I am also starting working on my photography skills. (Check out http://www.flickr.com/photos/christinmalen/ for more.)Thats because I like it, but also to gain a greater understanding in how to communicate with photographers for when i am working on a project and because I want to be able to do my own layout photography. So this is what I have been up to lately:

So Out Of Step Magazine has been out for about 3 months now. We are almost all out of copies, but already started a second issue. We have gotten a lot of great response on this project. Iceland Fashion Week just took 100 copies for their goodie-bags for press and special guests, so thats something we are really stoked about to. I just talked at Pecha Kucha about the magazine, and begged for money and ad-buyers so we can make the second issue better than the first.
This is from the release party at Bleed Design studio:

We also have a website: it looks like this:

Here is some of the press we got:

Me and Helene Ryenbakken made this for Revolver. Its used as a poster program and an ad in Natt & Dag. Think its a cool idea to show the house and all the fun and weird things and characters in it.

I did a campaign for Changemaker. “Its typically norwegian to earn money on war” It´s a poster, stickers, buttons, a phamplet and postcards.

Me and Zöe Waage did a campaign for the mathematics and science department at the university´s library in Oslo. We did tote-bags, t-shirts for the librarians to wear, beer-coasters for the student parties and an installation of green spots in the formation of the different libraries locations.
