The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

It's not every day that I feel like recommending Danish music, but today I'll make an exception. I'm not sure what it is about the Asteroids Galaxy Tour that I like. Maybe it's the name or the psychedelic videos, maybe it's their charismatic lead singer Mette Lindberg, or perhaps it's the groovy 70s vibe they explore in their music, but I really do like them. The song featured in Apple's iPod commercial "Around the Bend" is my favorite and the video is very cool. Have a look below and get ready to be transported back to another time.

005 - An apple a day

I took this picure today on my way to the supermarket. I couldn't resist photographing the cute little lonely apple hanging on the branch all by itself, only accompanied by a single wrinkled leaf.

Customize with Tokidoki

I really love Tokidoki. It’s become a little more mainstream than it used to be, but that doesn’t make the designs less appealing. I like the colors and the clutter in the designs. There’s always lots to look at and new details to be found. So I was pleasantly surprised to see these laptop and Iphone GelaSkins on the UrbanRetro website, as well as other cute items. I'm seriously considering buying this set for my Mac and my iPhone.

The Graphic Arts Institute of Denmark 2006

Since I was 15 I've only wanted to go to one school and that is The Graphic Arts Institute of Denmark. Back when I was in the eighth grade I got an internship at Disney's Danish department. My advisor told me that the best education I could possibly get in Denmark if I wanted to be a designer or be in advertising, was at that school. So for years I kept the school's name on a note in my drawer, waiting to be old enough to apply. In 2006 it was finally time and I was scared to death. Only 30 people get in every year so my chances were slim. There was an extensive admission test where you had to create a poster, do an ad campaign and show your versatility by designing numerous illustrations based on an apple. I was sure I wouldn't get in and I was a wreck all three days the test lasted. I'd have to wait for months to get the result so when I finally got my admissions letter I was extatic. I got in! I couldn't believe it! And to this day I'm still so thankful for pulling through. My boyfriend was also very supportive and helpful.

We had to make everything out of paper and computers weren't allowed which made it that much more difficult. Here's the work I did for the admission test:
