Maybe it’s because I’m a musician, but the word wave immediately made me think of different musical terms/genres such as ‘new wave’ and ‘no wave’.
If you go visit allmusic.com and make a search for song titles with the word ‘wave’, the name Antonio Carlos Jobim pops up.. but then again he’s from Brazil and somehow […]

Today in the main Copenhagen-pedestrian-street “Strøget” this guy managed to play “Für Elise”, “Memory” and several other all-time-musical favourites on glasses containing various amounts of water.
(Hard to say whether those were half full or hald empty :-)

Speaking of museums with great architecture and  a wavy twist…
Yesterday I went to Louisiana - the museum of modern art spectacularly draped on the coastline north of Copenhagen. They featured a great new exhibition called ‘Frontiers of Architecture 1′.
The exhibition left no doubt, that there’s definately a new wave of wavy architecture on the roll…the […]

This summer I visited the Guggenheim Bilbao. Outside the museum is another wavy structure: a fog sculpture by Japanese artist Fujiko Nakaya. The sculpture is a kind of wavy vent from which steam comes up and creates a foggy mist - on an otherwise sunny day. Very appealing to children and childish adults.
The artist herself […]

Meanwhile, on the other side of the island…

- in Luddes Hus (House of Ludde), Kirsten Holm is exhibiting her ceramic vases. These finest ones are titled “Currents”.

 
Here’s an art project I encountered in the front office of the Danish minister of culture Brian Mikkelsen. As far as I know it’s still there. The piece is a seemingly ordinary cup of coffee placed on a windowsill a few metres away from the actual office of the minister. Every 10 seconds, a mechanism triggers shockwaves (well, more like […]

On May 2nd my local fountain had mysteriously turned green. Might have been the reminisence of the May 1st-political manifestations. Might simply be an alternative spring-celebration. Might have been a joke on the highspeed trend of always carrying around a bottle of ‘natural spring water’.
I really don’t know. Fact is, however, that the green dye […]

The May-waveband for Share A Brainwave is created by the Danish illustrator Kristian Eskild Jensen. Kristian’s visual interpreations of the Reflexioner-themes and -articles are to be found - and enjoyed - in every printed issue so far. Be it nano-technology, ambient rhetoric, the allstars-team of the major worldreligions or psykology…Kristian has twisted it all with […]

In only 48 days, on May 15, acclaimed singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright will release his 5th album which will be called Release The Stars.
“The album”, Mr. Wainwright says,
“…is about releasing your love and your brilliance, or acting on your impulses and basically laying it all down on the line. I think so much of life is spent […]

Yesterday the sun was shining bright and it was a blessing that my job for the day was to go to ‘Louisiana - Museum of Modern Art’ to interview the director.
The setting of the museum is spectacular - right on the seaside, overlooking the waves and the Swedish coast. A ‘daylight museum’ where the art, […]
