Konemetsä and the real metsä

By Photos & VideosNo Comments

I spent some of the past days photographing around Pyhä-Luosto. Really amazing landscapes and lots of things to see.

Panorama

Konemetsä Festival took place in Marttila last weekend. I wasn’t able to get there, but here’s a nice 5min video (100mb) from the event. It shows well what the bright Finnish summer nights are made for :) Also a small video documentary from last year’s event is available on YouTube:

Confirmation

I promised earlier to confirm when everything’s set for moving away from Rovaniemi. So this is it, 100% confirmation. I’ll be heading to Helsinki on the first of August. Interesting autumn ahead.

I think now it’s time more or less to look back. These five years have been incredible in many ways. Here’s a Short Story of the Northern Club Life – the electronic music scene in Northern Finland 2001-2005 as I remember it. Thanks to all of you who were involved in a way or another – you know why :)

Photocasting

Found a nice way to share the photos I’ve recently taken. I don’t post every single uploaded photo to this blog so if you want to stay updated with my Photo Stream (or Photocast, whatever), now it’s easier than ever (requires iPhoto OR any other feedreader).

1) Copy this URL: http://www.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=37218967@N00&format=rss_200
2) Go to http://phlikr.3xi.org/
3) Paste the URL, click the button of your choice and enjoy the up-to-date photo stream.

ET (won't) phone home.

The Blink Of An Eye

By In English, Photos & VideosNo Comments

While Flickr Interestingess might be just the playground of the professional photographers on Flickr, the new “The Blink of an Eye” group has a better idea. Each user can present the best photo he/she has ever shot (and uploaded to Flickr). I think this gives a way better view to what Flickr really has to offer than this “Interestingness”. Check the slideshow (or view the photos separately).

Human Turntable

By DJ, In English, Photos & VideosNo Comments

OK, this clip is just a teaser. Tomorrow morning I’m going to upload another DMC-clip: 15 years ago, in 1991, Finnish DJ Eliot Ness made it to the third place in DMC World DJ Championships. With some help from DJ Kaasi, I hunted down a clip from his performance. The tricks are quite stunning, I must say.

But before Mr. Eliot’s clip, here’s the famous Human Turntable trick. Stay tuned.

Make the big wheel turn

By Photos & VideosNo Comments

Media. It’s a powerful thing. I can’t help admiring those, who have succeeded in turning the media against those who thought they can control it.

Even though it’s hard to make a truly objective one-and-a-half-hour-movie on global warming, war in Iraq or oil business, I think it’s just about bringing the people a new point of view, not an objective opinion.

One day these efforts make the big wheel turn.

Dyyni 360 degrees.

Hiekkadyyni.fi delightfully shares us a full 360 degree view of the best summer club in Northern Finland. What a pity that there isn’t any similar look available of the upstairs. The landscape there is just stunning.

Well, here’s the downstairs anyway. Take a look.
