It happens that I, once in a while, am ashamed of my country of origin. For one thing, we’ve got Berlusconi, who is a devastating figure for the country I am from and a real embarrassment for all of us, ugh. As a matter of fact, a LOT of people think I am Norwegian [...]

yes, even the good and loud and busy and constantly-on-the-run people go on holiday. I am off to a snowy place for ten days of good food, early nights, lots of skiing, and no internet. I felt like I needed to throw in a couple of updates before my trip (though I really should be [...]

With an approaching January 1st, the bloggers of the world are all busy making lists of the best records of the year, best records of the decade, best gigs of 2009.. having just gotten back from a semi-holiday (it was mostly visiting family and emptying an apartment, with lots of reading in between) I have [...]

I finally got around to looking through some of the gig photos from my Italy trip. The night we got to Bologna, The Briggs and the Get Up Kids were playing at Estragon, a venue inside the Fair and a 5 minute walk from our camping site. I got to bring my camera in which [...]

The Venice Biennale was also an opportunity for me to meet an old friend I hadn’t seen in something like 5 years. What better setting than one of the biggest and most famous art fairs in the world to discuss street art (which he recently got into) and my tiny steps into the art world? [...]

I came across this a few weeks ago. How very lovely, I say. If you are into photography and participating in these global projects, I recommend you take a look at their website. It reminds me a bit of the 1000 journals project. (I wonder if that still exists, actually..) I think I might make [...]

Piccolo Grande Amore by Claudio Baglioni is, besides being a milestone in italian pop music history, also a song I grew up with (actually, a while back I made a digital-mixtape about inherited music!). For as long as I can remember, it’s been there – just like Acqua Azzurra Acqua Chiara by Lucio Battisti or [...]

In December I was for a few days in a small village in Northern Italy, where I collected a lot of material for a project I was working on. Finally managed to put together a small video. I am still experimenting, and there are a lot of ideas running through my head, but here’s what [...]
My name has five letters in it, and comes up in some Bright Eyes songs. I am (apparently) an artist, with too much time on her hands. Well, enough to blog (almost) daily. I am 1/4 (the smallest one, actually) of Lazy Acre Records; I also write & photograph for a local magazine based in Englaaand and make used to draw musically-inspired comics for a canadian mag (RIP Inscribed). Sometimes I can be quite cute. I used to still have a crush on Marty McFly; I like baking, overusing semi-colons, the smell of the sea, and thunderstorms.
I tend to be quite the busy bee, but if you make VERY sexy music and want me to listen and enjoy and possibly even (!!) write about it, shoot me a mail, baby. music(at)alicetragedy(dot)org
