Selfie moment at NRK TV Reception - Fjernsynshuset

Every project has that moment of 'this started out as an idea but now it's actually happening'. Arriving at NRK HQ on a sunny Oslo morning there's nothing like a selfie to reinforce that existential affirmation, 'yes, this is really happening, it's moved from an idea to a manifest reality'.

As you can tell from the colour and the squint, the day was brilliantly illuminated. Even got a bit sunburnt by the end of the day. I wasn't expecting that in Oslo.

Autumn Morning at Oslo University Science Park

On a gorgeous warm autumn morning we took an early trip up to Oslo University Science Park to record an interview for my documentary about Slow TV. The weather was to remain that way for our evening arrival at Bergen the same day.

NRK Slow TV Projects - Holmenkollbanen (2011)

Prerecorded 23 minutes. 
During the World Ski Championships there were hundreds of thousands of people in Holmenkollen. Many of them used Holmenkollbanen to get out into the countryside and into the arenas. When the Holmenkollen Line was opened in 1898 it was the first Nordic suburban railway, today the line part of Oslo's Underground network and carrying residents and tourists to Holmenkollen and Frognerseter.
