Sauna Gallery, Stockholm
Bastugatan 1B

The exhibition installation went very well - it was so much fun having 5 people helping me in various ways, Petri and Sanna advised on placement of projector and sound, then moved furniture around and set up the space, dana and voytec went off on a mission to find an adaptor for australian to european power, scouring stockholm for two hours then borrowing one from the hilton hotel next door, and Ossi set up the mixing desk. The pixelache crew arrived at 6pm so I didn't have that strange half hour like when you give a party, wondering when people will arrive. Helena and joanna who run the space brought me tulips and lots of local swedish people came along to the opening who weren't involved with pixelache, so it was very exciting meeting people and getting very positive feedback. the performance on my kaoss pad was very entertaining for both me and everyone else, at one point I was falling off my chair laughing, some great drum beats and synth sounds there. Voytec took excellent photos of the event, hopefully they will be here soon.

the interview on swedish radio was excellent, marcus had really engaged with the concept and philosophy on the website and asked very interesting questions, so we had a great discussion. It will be played next saturday and then is on their website www.sr.se/p3/flipper

We are staying on a very cool hostel, the red boat, on a canal just near the gallery. Tonight is the big club event at Fylkingen with the weather matrix, digital vs analog soundclash, teemuk amfibio and many other exciting performances. now Sanna, Dana and I will go find some art and shopping for the afternoon in stockholm.
