Pussy Riot

This is a tribute to the feminist punk-rock collective Pussy Riot. If you haven't heard of them by now, they are a Russian girl-group who stages politically provocative impromptu performances in Moscow. On political subjects such as the status of women in Russia, and most recently against the election campaign of Prime Minister Putin for President. 

For this recent political performance three of them has been sent to jail. All of them in their 20ies, two of them mothers. 


Today, the pre-trial detention  was extended until January 2013. And if convicted they could spend an additional 7 years in prison.


If you think this is unfair... Take action and share ---->>>>http://amnestyusa.org/pussyriot

Jazz in Harlem

In april I spent two weeks in NYC, mostly to document a jazz-lady living in Harlem. One sunday I went to a jazz cafe with my cousin Anne-Stine and my friend Andrea (the one with the fantastic curly hair). Here we're being played to :)

Nordic Sound at Vega, Cph

We went to see Nordic Sound, a concert with lots of different Nordic singers/band, last week. Among them was Susanne Sundfør and it was absolutely beautiful. It was my danish friend Kiss who invited us, as she had done the installation work for the event. Here are some images of her work in progress, "borrowed" from the Vega website. 

Vanilla & Cream

We've formed a new girl-band. Vanilla & Cream is performing at a venue near you very soon!

DJing 2nite + Marte Krogh Violin Performance

Marte and I are performing at an event tonight. As we've done before; she plays the violin while I DJ. This picture is NOT us, but from browsing on the internet it seems as if the combination is a hit for other happy Dj/violin girls too :)

Meeting Snoop Dogg in London - read D2 today!

... is an experience! On the 17th of may (I ditched the norwegian independence day for this), I went to London to take part in a Snoop Dogg press conference. It was held in a strip club, he had an entourage of strippers with him and the smell of mariuahna was hanging in the air. I managed to sit up front, very close to him, and slipped a few questions in. 

This brief encounter was for a story that's in D2 today, about the presence of mariuahna in popular culture today. 

I snapped this picture. You get the gist...

Performing at Nåløyet Fashion Award with Marte Krogh

Marte and I have collaborated quite a few times now... she plays the violin and I DJ and it's a pretty cool and unexpected combination. With a lot of girl-power!! This time we performed just before Oslo Fashion Week, at the fashion award ceremony called Nåløyet. I just received the film from the evening, which was produced by HENNE fashion magazine, and here are some stills! Juhuuu! 

Photo-stills from the film produced by HENNE fashion magazine. Thank you!
