Master of Keynotery
I’m a fan of the Identity 2.0 presentation by Dick Hardt of Sxip, and was at the Nextweb conference yesterday to see him. I found an older version of (t)his presentation on youtube, check it out:
More Street Art please!
Something I really miss from Shoreditch when I’m in Amsterdam is Street Art. I’m always happy to see some turn up on blogs (Iain is known to post quite a bit of it, and so is Russell).
Can somebody do a “Shoreditch-street-art” blog please? Add a paypal donation button ; )
This is a piece I found in Amsterdam today, on one of these electricity box thingies.
Interweb rockstars do Amsterdam
This might be going to be good: The Nextweb conference at Tuschinski theatre, June 1st, Amsterdam. Confirmed speakers here.
Adfoblog on 10
Adfoblog, the weblog of dutch advertising industrymag’ Adformatie, which I have been honored to blog for since it started in 2006, is apparently the 10th most refered-to blog in The Netherlands writes dutch newspaper NRC-next.
Thats pretty good I guess, although I wonder how airtight this all is - since the only source seems to be Google.
A Clockwork Orange - Live on stage
Tonight we were invited to go and see a theatre performance of A Clockwork Orange by Dutch theatre group D’electrique in Stadsschouwburg Amsterdam. It was Very Raw, Very Loud and Very Much In-Your-Face. A highly original take on a great story, and quite different from the film. Full of energy and highly enjoyable indeed. More info here.
Thanks for the invitation Sachiko!
Lucky day
So we were lucky today: Our favorite wineshop in the 9 straatjes area happened to have a * sommelier in the shop trying out some new wines.
We were invited to join in their quest - the sommelier and shop owner helped us choose some pretty good wines, one of the highlights being a mighty fine bottle of Chassagne-Montrachet Les Vergers Premier Cru. I really don’t know much about wines, but I do know what I like. Niceness.
A decade of beeps
For a while now I have been Soulseeking music I used to play when I was still very much into techno, trance, ambient and all that stuff. Most of the ‘88-’98 stuff I download these days I have in my own vinyl collection as well - all neatly stashed away in 6 boxes.
So I figured it would make sense to get a Numark USB deck and start digitising my own collection instead of looking for poorly compressed mp3s. But which ones to start digitising? Any suggestions anyone?
Email trouble
The company I left at the end of 2006 decided to keep my mailbox alive but block me from access to it. Yesterday I found out quite a few contacts have emailed me at that adress over the last months - but didn’t hear back from me. Someone told me they received a reply ‘that the emailadres wasn’t in use anymore’, others nothing.
So whoever tried to mail me since the start of 2007 at that particular adress - your message(s?) haven’t reached me and this has been beyond me: Please use my Gmail.
(Update May 17th: Account seems to be closed now)
On a lighter tip: A project I’ve been working on last year has apparently been shortlisted for a SAN Accent : )
Public Announcement?
