And love not feeling so silly when I sing along—since (some of) the lyrics are in English! (It’s the guy from Sigur Ros.)

I finally resuscitated my long-neglected site Futureness. It’s just futuristic image I find interesting—pretty random, so I won’t take time trying to explain it.

Finn has his own “office” within my office. This morning, his little brother took over his desk to get some work done.

So he can outdo his old man.

He has generously given me 20 days to do them all though. In his estimation, and based on my usual procedure, one day per site should be ample time.
