SHARE A BRAINWAVE

Using the sun to make a rhetorical point on the climate crisis – watch the video…       

Copenhagen is the city of bikes…and sometimes those bikes are stolen…and sometimes those stolen bikes end their lives on the bottom of the mid-city-lakes. This morning I passed by the lakes and watched while several bikes were pulled out of the lakes. Apparantly – after a while in the lakes – it seems that bikes [...]

After long nights of dancing, high heels and a somewhat blurry mind the feet call for a wavy, pepperminty retreat.

I just love the BBC-series Blue Planet…

Looking at these beautiful roots reminds me of the diversity of mangroves. Rhizomes of mangrove swamps are unique in the sense that they can deal with water as well as drought. They can adapt to low levels of oxygen as well as limit their intake of salt. Furthermore, mangroves protect coastlines from erosion by waves. Adaptation is really [...]

The Elbphilharmonie – the new concerthall in Hamburg – definately encourages the audience to share a brainwave or two while listening to the music. The new glassroof on top of the old cocoa-and-coffee-warehouse in the harbour definately has a wavy look. Created by architecs Herzog and de Meuron – planned to open 2010.

It’s less than a year ago that I started blogging – and I still feel new to a lot of the basic technicalities. I was told that technorati, del.icio.us, wordpress, bloglines, youtube etc, etc, etc were all easy and basic to use – and now that I’ve tried them they generally ARE very easy and [...]

There are moments when a movie just hits you like a… you-know-what. Yes, a wave. Rolling over you without you noticing that you are swept off your feet, and things are not the same anymore. You have been told a secret, somebody else’s story. This story you must carry with you – and you will, unless your heart is [...]

Yesterday my spam-filter caught an interesting piece of commercial mail titled: Aquazone Seven Seas Desktop Aquarium – now 20 % off. And what do you know…working intensively with SHARE A BRAINWAVE lately apparantly has put waves, water, fish and aquariums so top of my mind, that I’m an easy target for any information containing either [...]

I just read a great post ‘Creating Passionate Users’ wrote on serendipity. The introduction to the very long post that is full of examples and advice to work on goes as follows: You know the feeling: You follow a near-random trail of blog links and land on the post that solves your big business problem. [...]

My post on the wavy scissors made Cyclone Bill challenge me to ‘make a nice wavy cutting for shareabrainwave…’ Sooo – I accepted the challenge – and here it is… (although I cheated a bit and used a pair of normal grown-up scissors): A wavy cutting for SHARE A BRAINWAVE

Tide at Lynmouth, Devon (UK):

I recently visited the new museum of urban planning i Beijing. It is a highly recommendable sight for anyone remotely interested in city planning and architecture. They have great models showing the ambitious plans for the city’s rapid growth in for the coming years, a great section on the environmental intiatives that are to make [...]

Frk. Jensen’s post on The powers of water reminds me of paneldebate on ‘Religion versus science’ I once overheard. A scientist (probably a meteorologist) explained how – under very, very rare and extreme weathercircumstances – the Red Sea could actually have split in two to allow the Jews to escape from the Egyptians. This was [...]

Levendes post on Protection just triggered a new brainwave: If Al Gore is right and most of the worlds major cities will be under water in a few decades from now, we’re about to make the myth of Atlantis come true. That leaves us with the choice between two major paths to go down when [...]
