Info on me

I was born in Bergen the 31 of october 1980. We lived for the first five years of my life in a small place called Knarvik. We moved to Bergen and I've been living here ever since.

I'm 1.75 tall, green eyes and dark hair.

I have two cats, Mooch and Luna, the most beautiful in the world! Mooch is my friend and Luna is my little baby;) She needs attention the most of the time. And she gets it too.

I'm a singer/songwriter and a documentary film maker. I'm hoping to get my music career going soon, we're in studio at the moment just letting our creativity floating! It's fun to not know what it's going to end up beeing. My dream at the moment is going to USA and just play at open mic nights and dark, smoky clubs;) I of course work in a "normal job" as well to be able to live and eat. I have a son at eight years old, he's my little inspiration, a born musician I think, he does this rythm thing with his mouth that he's been doing since he was three;D And he began singing before he could talk. At the moment he's into Michael Jackson;) For me I don't have a favorite music, it's just what hits me then and there you know? I don't belive in just liking one type of music and dissing everything else. Then you're not a true musician. I make music out of inspiration, (of course) but I mean, often it just comes to me, a sentence or a melody, a feeling that I must express, it doesn't have to be my story, it just feels so strong. And music often touches me, sometimes to tears. It sounds a little bit pathetic but that's just the way it is. I'm done with pretending I'm something I'm not, I'm proud of the music I make.

That turned into a speech...

How do one start?

So I became a blogger after all...Funny how you can change your mind about something so drasticly as I did about blogging. I thought it was a sort of public exposure, (sorry if my english is bad, I'm not english) putting your self out there without considering the consequenses. Maybe it is to some people, some people should be protected from them selves. But I realized that for me it is a fine way to share my philosophical thoughts with the world! ;) And it's like we all have become columnists now, to bad we're not getting paid:P

So I'm into film and music, yes i chose the hard road of the creative occupations.

I make documentaries and music videos, and have played in my share of bands through the years. My camera is a Sony 1080i for anyone who finds that extremely interesting.

I rent a studio from a friend once a week, yes I have a "normal" job too so I only get to do film once a week. But that's ok, I feel free when I have this day to look forward to every week.

So what do I want to make film about? Everything. Almost anything is fascinating when you put a camera at it. I am considering going back to school next year, but we'll see, it always helps to have a degree in something.

I love singing, been doing it since I was little, since before I could talk I guess. Making music for films is my new favorite interest. I get inspired when I see a movie or a moment when I see something emotional, I get music in my head. It just pops in there and I have to hum the tone on my mobile or something or else it disappears. A lyric can also pop up in the same way and sometimes I don't even know where it comes from. Sometimes it's about something I haven't really experienced so that's kind of funny. Not that I'm saying that I'm psychic or anything, but it's interesting. That's the kind of thing that interests me, human nature, how our minds work..

Ok, enough self indulgence for one night.
