I'm posting this on the train from Svendborg to Odense, both in Denmark. <a href="http://www.skolevisuel.dk" target="new">One of the unis</a> where I teach has a meeting twice a year with good food, better company and fun times nestled nicely among (in)formal chat about the uni, this meeting takes place in the maritime town of Svendborg and I've been there a <a href="http://the-kenner.blogspot.dk/2011/09/24-hours-in-svendborg-denmark-about.html">couple of times now</a>. <br><br>Oddly enough, this is the town in Denmark that most reminds me of London - it's a sensibility to the past, a certain reluctance to tear down and build new and it therefore offers up a nice bit of psychogeography. It also helps that the place is heavy on maritime symbols, mermaids, anchors, waves cut in wood abound.
I have a troubled realationship with my old Nikon D70 and since most of my memory for the camera has either died or been hidden by my son, I currently have the capacity of four photos on one of the silly 16Mb cards that came free with something at one point or another, but here's half of what I snapped:<br><br>

Soon it's Odense, birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen - I'm not really a big fan of his depressing fairy tales, but I am partial to his paper cuts. I will choose my four shots carefully - or possibly get a new card.

<br>
OK, this blog is on the verge of death.
I've written it many times before, but since I started out <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com" target="new">kennmunk.com</A> my focus has shifted, I mostly design through <a href="http://www.schhh.org" target="new">a secret club</A>.
<br><br>
At the moment I'm teaching and I'm focussing my teaching on the importance of the sketchbook, yet sketchbook pages have all but vanished from my website. Sketchbooks aren't made to be showcased, but if I'm trying to inspire the creatives of the future to use this tool, I should put my jpgs where my mouth is, so here's the first of a series of sketchbooky entries.<br><br>
<b>Gysinge</b><br>
In 2009 <a href="http://www.schhh.org" target="new">a secret club</A> went to Sweden. Mostly to get stung by wasps and mosquitoes, but also to just sketch, think, experiment without having a project. This is a sample page from that trip:
<br><br>
<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/sketch1-1.jpg">
<br><br>
It shows various random stuff, research and ideas all mingled and mangled, but that's my mind for you. On the left hand page, right in the middle, you see G Y S I N G though. What it actually says is <a href="http://www.gysinge.nu/butiken-gysinge" target="new">Gysinge</A>.
<br><br>
<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/sketch1-2.jpg"><br><br>
When you walk up the path to Gysinge, this is what you see.
<br><br>
<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/sketch1-3.jpg"><br><br>
If you walk round the back, this is what you see - a side of a house painted in different traditional Swedish colour combinations. You see, Gysinge is a hardware store, but not your standard B&Q. Gysinge is for people who really love their old homes, people who restore and it's the sexiest hardware store I've ever seen. It's a mix of reclaimed materials and new, but the true beauty of this place is that it itself functions as inspiration and DIY guide, take the slightly blurry pic below, it shows a ceiling in the state you'd find it in an old house, stripped, primed and painted. It's beautiful. It's not just about flogging your primer and brushes, this place cares.
<br><br>
<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/sketch1-4.jpg"><br><br>
This excites me. Without my sketchbook, I'd forgotten its name and contrary to what Shakespeare thinks, a lot is in a name - if you have the name you can find it, dead easy. Use your sketchbooks, kids. You'll save so much time later if you don't have to google "Cool Swedish Hardware Store"

<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/cardboard.jpg"><br><br>
Everything around me breaks - it's true that I keep things longer than most people - I don't see the point in getting more new, planet polluting stuff just for the sake of it, but right now I'm in a rubbish tech avalanche, and hey! Why don't you join me for the ride?<br><br>
It started when my son stuck 2-4 hairpins into the DVD drive of the second laptop (he currently only uses the numbers 1, 2 or 4 and when we asked him he said 2, 4)
Immediately after that, my DVD player (the one connected to the telly) died, I never expected that one to last, the on-screen info was misspelled). <br><br>
Sunday our router died, but we still have our mobile "broadband" from Telia which isn't very broad, it's never been above one meg. We still have the DVD playing capacity of the first laptop, that one's all right still, the plastic casing is crumbling, though. Thank you apple.<br><br>
But then, RIGTH NOW I wanted to plug in some speakers at the uni where I teach and when it didn't work, I unplugged them again, only to leave part of the mini-jack lodged inside, so now that laptop has no voice. It registers that a mini-jack is plugged in, so the speakers have been shut off.<br><br>
Sigh.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-21169236309848408852012-09-17T23:12:00.000+02:002012-09-18T07:22:03.675+02:00<b>planning inspiration-adventure</b><br><br>
I've organised a few inspiration-adventures for creatives or students over the years, mostly in London when I lived there - nobody seems to go on inspirational trips to Aarhus, Denmark...<br><br>
Research for these was usually a mix of regular haunts (Galleries, shops, museums and so on) as well as checking listings and asking around for what was on, something easy to do when you know the place.<br><br><img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/hamburg.jpg">
<br><br>
Now we're going on our own little adventure to Hamburg and while I've asked around, people I know haven't been able too point me to the kind of places I like, so a bit of online investigation has been needed - it's funny how finding quality info takes a while, a simple google of "cool things in Hamburg" won't do, you'll get a start, but to really get anywhere I've found that following trails works, It's been fun to research for this little adventure, I'm looking forward to finding out if my scouting is up to scratch, but I think it is.<br><br>
I could get into this scouting and guiding, I enjoyed it in London and it felt good to show other creatives good stuff while getting the word out on great galleries and shops, everybody wins.<br><br>
Oh, by the way, the main reason we're going is <a href="http://www.hamburger-kunsthalle.de/index.php/alice-in-the-wonderland-of-art/articles/alice-in-the-wonderland-of-art.html">this</A><div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-48542920477966986702012-08-15T15:14:00.002+02:002012-08-15T15:15:31.361+02:00<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/jam3.jpg">
<br>Last one...<br><br>Luckily, rosehip season is upon us and after a bit of annoying cleaning of these itchy...things... The stash to last us a year is in the cupboard.
Right now elderberry capers are soaking up salt and soon it's time for blackberries. Need to get into mushrooms and shoreland foraging next.
It's a brilliant thing to do. Somehow, it's connected to my creative work and somehow it's not. We scavenge/salvage a lot of building materials from the street, not only because it's free, but because of the soul these pre-loved bits of furniture possess. <br><br>Scavenging and foraging are pretty similar, spotting something useful as you walk, but foraging is knowledge based, scavenging for design projects is open and, well, creative. There's no creative thinking involved in foraging, there's no creative thinking involved in boiling jam, you follow a formula and it's a nice break.<br><br>Also, it tastes quite good.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-57274331443640142722012-08-06T16:13:00.001+02:002012-08-06T16:16:42.433+02:00<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/childhood1.jpg"><br>

<b>Help Yourself</B><br>
A few work in progress pictures from the creating of an A6 piece for an <a href="http://sittingroomskipping.tumblr.com/post/25051382005/we-are-currently-calling-for-submissions-on-the" target="new">show</A> in London. <br><br>
It's all about MacGuyver, that thrifty guy with his swiss army knife. I learned a lot from MacGuyver, mainly that it's possible to bodge anything. I really wanted a knife like his, and when I finally was given one for a birthday, I was a happy camper - mostly because my Swiss army knife had the word "Camping" etched into it, I'm sure MacGuyver's didn't have that, but never mind, it did - and continues to do the job. (Although it's currently a bit lost somewhere in the flat.)<br><br>
I'll show you the outcome another time.<br><br>
As this deals with Childhood TV Characters, I figured I'd use a technique I hadn't used since childhood and I started making a lino cut version, but this turned out to be the wrong way to go, so in the end, I made a sort of collage with silver and red paper.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-73828683706635362582012-07-13T11:37:00.001+02:002012-07-13T11:40:10.215+02:00<img src="http://kennmunk.com/blog/km_animation_header.gif"><br>

<br />
Back in January I was asked to contribute a task to Digital Arts' <a href="http://www.digitalartsonline.co.uk/features/?featureId=3345238" target="new">"Why Don't You?" article.</a> (Funny, it's not the first project named <a href="http://www.redesigndesign.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=721&Itemid=999" target="new">Why Don't You</A> that we've taken part in.)<br />
<br />
We made it a project for <a href="http://www.schhh.org" target="new">a secret club</A> as that made sense, sadly it's credited to me solely and I am described as an illustrator and the brain behind a secret club, while I form part of the brain, I am not an illustrator, that describes the other part of the brain, <a href="http://zeit-geister.blogspot.com/" target="new">Annabelle Nielsen</A>, far better.<br />
<br />
Our task was to send people on an adventure and coming up with this little micro-project reminded me of a student days dreams: To constantly travel the world, live out of hotel rooms and just design like hell with whatever was at hand. This was in 1998 and traveling the world, chatting to clients on your Iridium phone while surfing the net with the other hand sounded damn cool and totally possible. <br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/photobooth.jpg"><br />
<br />
Years down the line reality is - thank God - different, but this project <I>was</I> cooked up sitting on a hotel room floor, the photo taken in a photo booth, so this sending people off on an adventure was made while being off on an adventure.<br />
<br />
The adventure is about halfway down the <a href="http://www.digitalartsonline.co.uk/features/?featureId=3345238" target="new">page.</a> and if you scroll a few more people down, you get to good friend Chris Ratcliffe of <a href="http://www.garudiostudiage.com/" target="new">Garudio Studiage</A> who will prompt you to build a zoo.<br />
<br />
There are a lot of good, little project there to pick from if you need a bit of inspiration, it's funny to see the ones that are overly self promotional, but aside from that, there's plenty to choose from.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0City of London, Greater London, UK51.5179801735872 -0.07989165848391621751.510188173587196 -0.10042765848391622 51.5257721735872 -0.059355658483916218tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-81170818554605353752012-03-14T11:17:00.001+01:002012-03-14T11:22:05.803+01:00<img src="http://www.kennmunk.com/blog/fox.gif"><br />
<br />
Leaving the house for the train very early on Monday, I scared a cat that ran across the street, it made me think of some very early London mornings, the foxes I saw and how I insisted on being excited about seeing foxes. (Even when their screaming kept us awake at night.) I have watched a small group of them playing a fairly complex "chase the plastic bag" game. <br />
<br />
I miss the London foxes, I've had some of the most interesting wildlife encounters in London, swarm of bees in Soho, bat in the flat, mouse hunting - that sort of thing. Foxes are a rare sight in Denmark, there are very few urban foxes, so the ones you see are shy and in the countryside/forests - I miss bumping into them.<br />
<br />
Later, on the train I sleepily stared out the window only to see a real, healthy looking fox on the prowl, as if the cat from earlier had been a teaser for the real deal.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-67961167411755450772012-03-05T09:50:00.001+01:002012-03-05T09:50:41.080+01:00<b>Robots, Aliens and Rocketships</B><br />

Last night, on that impossible date, I went to the cinema <a href="http://www.paradisbio.dk" target="new">Øst for Paradis</A> for <a href="http://www.schhh.org" target="new">a secret club</A> to introduce the film <b>Extremely Close and Incredibly Loud</b><br />
<br />
We had been asked to set the mood for the film, but that would probably have been a tad depressing, so instead we did what we do: We tried to get the audience to play. Not then and there, but some time in the not to distant future, we sent them on an expedition. This idea was developed further from at microbrief we'd set for the current issue of <a href="http://www.digitalartsonline.co.uk/magazine/" target="new">Digital Arts</A><br />

With the audience in their seats, I made them make a little booklet out of the sheet of paper we'd laid out on for them, this would be their log book for the expedition, now all we can do is wait for their log books to return to us.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-87860885717129821022012-02-21T15:23:00.002+01:002012-02-21T19:57:43.108+01:00<b>the Schhhop is full to the brim</B><br />
The shop of <a href="http://www.schhh.org" target="new">a secret club</A>, also known as the <a href="http://schhhop.bigcartel.com/" target="new">Schhhop</A> now features most of the amazing collages made for the Super Duper Nova collage challenge show, including my own contribution.<br />

<br />
Every penny dropped in the shop will help a secret club produce more creative events, so even if you don' like the art, buy some and be a better person. <br />
<br />
There are only about 25 <a href="http://schhhop.bigcartel.com/product/super-duper-nova-zine-catalog-pre-order" target="new">zines</a> left, they're all ready to go to a new home.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-36488944013724008922012-01-20T21:38:00.000+01:002012-01-20T21:38:07.961+01:00<b>Stykker af Stumper - Pieces of Bits</B> <br />
<br />
The first Denmark-based<a href="http://www.schhh.org/"> workshop for a secret club</A> of the year is a mere week and two days away and I'm very, very proud of this one. We are presenting a miniature programme of films at a cinema to fuel imagination before playing. The programme consists of a surprise short by the <b>Quay Brothers</b>, followed by <B>Terry Gilliam's The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus</B> - links to trailer, tickets and info on a secret club's website.<br />

<br />
When the house lights go up, our <b>Automatic Collage Material Vending Machine</B> will be purring like a kitten and ready to provide the punters with everything they need to make a collage of unimaginable beauty and cleverness.<br />
<br />
If you're in Aarhus, and want to spend a Sunday morning like it's meant to be spent, buy your tickets <a href="http://bit.ly/stykker-stumper">here.</A><br />
<br />
This one is more for the grown-ups as the films are, but if any kids want to drop in at around 12.30-1.00PM when the film is over, we're not known to stop you.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-87267892742994821522012-01-06T08:13:00.004+01:002012-01-23T05:12:32.756+01:00<b>Super Duper Zine</b><br />

<br />
This morning I finished my collage for <a href="http://www.schhh.org/" target="new">a secret club's</A> upcoming collage show <b>Super Duper Nova</B> using the materials sent to me by <a href="http://garudioyouth.tumblr.com/" target="new">Garudio Youth</A>. Garudio Youth is the intern "wing" of <a href="http://www.garudiostudiage.com/" target="new">Garudio Studiage</A> so what they sent was a collection of Peckham placemats, plasters and plastic coated stuff - all hideous, but good fun to try to turn it around.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://kennmunk.com/blog/collage1.jpg"><br />
<br />
The <B>Super Duper Nova</B> show opens on 18th January at the cinema <a href="http://www.paradisbio.dk/" target="new">Øst for Paradis</A> in Aarhus, Denmark and runs until 29th January. We got more than 25 artists and designers to send random bits of paper to each other and then create a collage from what they received. For the show we're publishing a limited edition catalogue/zine (32 pages) which can be pre-ordered from the new <a href="http://bit.ly/schhhop " target="new"><b>schhhop</b></A> of a secret club.<br />
<br />
Here's a mock-up preview, not at all final layout:<br />

<br />
Last year around this time <a rhef="http://www.schhh.org" target="new"><b>a secret club</b></A> created a little online experience or activity every day for our <a rhef="http://www.schhh.org/advent/index.html" target="new"><b>advent calender</b></A> playing with the idea of taking an online activity and method of delivery out of the computer, there were paper kits, collage challenges and so on.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://kennmunk.com/blog/advent2-2.jpg"><br />
<br />
This year, our advent calendar is running on the four Sundays leading up to Christmas - this is major thing in continental Northern Europe and this time, it's even more removed from the internet that hosts it: It's a geographical game (we love geographical games) and by following the instructions posted on the website, you will find a creation of ours in the landscape in and around Aarhus. <br />
<br />

This was the first one, now taken offline, so the directions to it are gone, but the little house is still out there for passers by to see.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-69181261614571838052011-11-05T20:37:00.001+01:002011-11-05T20:38:42.931+01:00<b>on the bus with the drunks</B><br />
A cool thing about having moved to Denmark is that the drunks often are harmless and genuinely kind people, so on the bus yesterday, we needed a space for Mio's now Danish ship like pram. (if you're not familiar with Danish perambulator design: They are huge beasts.) The following exhange took place:<br />
<br />
Very drunk drunk whispering woman: "What's his name."<br />
Me, sober: "Mio."<br />
Woman: "Mio, eh. Sometimes people give their children strange names. My eldest granddaughter is called Naninja."<br />
Me: "Oh." I fought hard not to speak of deathly silent killers.<br />
<br />
Long pause<br />
<br />
Woman, staring at the green buttons on Mr Mio's jacket: "Little amphibians jumping around."<br />
Me, thinking she's halucinating: "Sorry, where?"<br />
Woman, still staring: "Aren't Naninjas little green amphibiams jumping around the sewer and a giant rat is their boss?"<br />
Me: "Oh! No, they're Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but I see what you're getting at."<br />
<br />
Pause<br />
<br />
Me: "That could be a cool, modern name."<br />
Woman: "Yes, the name of the child is...da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da" <br />
And then we came to the place where the drunks hang out and she got off.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><b>This intel was provided by <a href="http://www.kennmunk.com">Kenn Munk Dot Com</A></b></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21532700.post-32223800494644515122011-11-01T08:45:00.001+01:002011-11-01T08:46:28.516+01:00<b>I Am Legion - For We Are Many</B><br />
<br />
Quick and dirty post to let you Son Franciscans (Daughters too) to get yourself over to <a href="http://1amsf.com/future-exhibitions/" target="new">1AM gallery</A> on 4th November as the A3 custom show I Am Legion - For We Are Many opens. <br />
<br />
As mentioned before, my last custom toy will be on display, seeing the mad skills of the other artists, quitting seems a good idea, some of this work is astounding.<br />

<br />
My little scene, showing the museum of dismantled warheads is called "Lemonade" for a number of reason that you no doubt will have figured out before reading this.<br />
