Important work being done here by OK Do and Sitra. I'm proud to see so many of our recommendations reflected in the final report.

Unusually clear and bullshit-free thinking about the whats and whys of urban media interfaces, from Teppo Kotirinta at Nordkapp.

A brief video I shot to illustrate my post the other day about emergent aesthetic best practices for urban displays.

(FI/SW) Details of Nurri's show at Hippolyte Gallery, Helsinki.

Along with us and the (doubly-unrelated) Do Lectures, part of Dosplosion 2009.

A really nice way of gathering information and links of interest to one particular local community. Could be of utility to folks here in town what want to do something similar.

Hmmmmm.

Are shops open today in Helsinki? A very very necessary dw joint.

"Architecture disappears in favour of controlled geography, like the resurgence of a neighbouring landscape." Huh?

My favorite, and possibly the only, contemporary men's clothing store in Helsinki.

Lost and now found again, all of HKL's vehicles reporting their positions in real time.

The history of Minimalism. Amazing work by the usual suspects (Nauman, Eliasson, González-Torres) and folks I'd never heard of (Wolfgang Laib! Koo Jeong-A!). Highly recommended; through 18 Jan 2009.

My local record shop, in Kaisaniemi subway station. I'm happier'n a pig in shit.

I like the way this lad puts things.

"Do you check your surroundings before you decide to quickly pick your nose, or adjust your underwear nowadays?"

Helsinki fits out its buses with Linux servers. A project filled with Yes...and so very, very timely.

Nurri and I loved this when we saw it at Kiasma
