STYLE, DESIGN, SPRING AND CELEBRATION. Words: Jaya Thomlison

Suddenly we turn the page into May and everyone is outside. Together. All of the time.

Smiles return in full-force, people shed their snow and rain clothing for the first time since last fall, put their sunglasses back on and suddenly we are reborn with an individual style that may have been abandonned for the winter-functional.

Trøndelag is often known as the pratical, yet warmly genuine region in Norway. Yes, we’re still willing to be known as charming and comfortably authentic, but that is not to overlook, nor understate the presence of design, style and art in and around the city. Home to several art and design academies and institutions, Trondheim and region is actually bubbling with artistic expression… if you look. A small group of professionals are delivering daily to a large group of inhabitants. Design and style interest the majority of us, regardless of whether it is interior, fashion, product development, design-thinking. Take a moment to notice the artistic pop-ups on walls, stylised posters from one of the many daily events, new architecture and window shops with the slowly burgeoning traces of a growing local fashion and manufacturer culture, to name a few.

The streets are in fact filled with clues of design and living culture. Some of this provided by the City of Trondheim’s Art Advisor and Currator, Ulrika Wallin who, after 12 years of bringing art to public spaces, will return home to Stockholm this summer. Thank you Ulrika for your fantastic, experimental work in the city! Not to fear though, we have some new players in town.

This issue of The List touches upong moments of the visual: design in our city.The List has located subcultures, traced local clothing industries and asked for stories of their style-creation. We’ve spoken with stylists and world-renowned hair-artists, testing their skills at local salons. We interviewed artists offering their ideas to public spaces, heard about local design culture, and collected some musings from a local fashionista that chose to make Trondheim her place of study.

This is a good time to appreciate your own style. May and June are busy times, with multiple outdoor festivals and celebrations filling many of the long weekends. For some of this it will come on top of final exams, confirmations and graduations. For most of us, there will be National day celebrations on the 17th of May, and hectic cramming to deliver work before a generally much anticipated summer vacation. Come take a look at many of these events featured in this issue, and get to know your neighbouring design community.

GREEN IS THE NE W BL ACK How one of our favorite pastimes may be harming our future.

Words: Zane Datava Illustration: Sarah Poesen

The exciting world of clothes and fashion becomes more difficult if we look behind the colours, textures, designs and irresistible sale offers. Awareness about the way our clothes are being made, where they come from, and – last but not least – where they end up after serving their time with us – becomes complicated.

Just as it was a long time ago when clothes served the pure purpose of protecting from weather conditions, it is also a long time since we really knew where they come from and how and where our clothes are made.

The price we pay for the fashion and style is much higher than we would like to know. And who actually pays the full price for our seasonal colour palettes, mood changes and 70% sales? In reality, we have to consider many aspects, starting from the way fabrics and other materials are produced, dyed and distributed – looking at the environmental and social impact of the production process.

Even when we seemingly think we are doing a good thing by giving away the clothes we don’t want anymore, we might still be trapped in the circle of over-consumption, which is a reason for negative environmental and social changes somewhere else.

Namely, the price tag on the new spring coat is just a very small part of what actually is being paid. It’s often assumed that by giving away things we have owned, we do something good to the world, but often it can be quite the opposite. Especially if we feel encouraged to shop more as we might think that our pre-owned things mysteriously disappear or might be useful for somebody else. That may or may not be true. First of all, our used stuff doesn’t disappear, just like any other trash we create during our lifespan. Researcher Martin O’ Brien, while writing about consumption, suggests we should call nowadays societies ‘societies of rubbish’, rather than societies of consumption (O’Brien 2008, 5). A lot of our activity is connected to waste and its management - collecting, distributing, getting rid of it. This is closely connected with vast consumption on the other hand.

THE LIST trd T HE T E NT H I SS U E

That being said, what can we do to improve our behaviour and produce less waste?

Sure, there are practices we can use to lessen our impact. Regarding clothes that would be buying better quality clothes, using them longer and repairing them instead of throwing them away. If buying new, we should find out how ethical our clothes are and how environmentally-friendly their production method was. Other practices include buying pre-used and exchanging instead of buying.

I am not such a bright example myself, I must admit. Even though I have been shopping in second hand clothes stores since I was a teenager - when I was really fascinated by vintage clothes I could find there - I still tend to fall for the traps of quick shopping when there is something particular I need, the sort of items which are not that easily found in the second hand stores.

However, I would recommend ‘Gratisbuttiken’ in Svartlamon for buying or exchanging things. Clothes and household items are exchanged every week, and there are clothes swapping events, second hand stores and flea markets.

But there for sure are many other strategies about how to approach the issue, so I asked other people about their experiences. Janina Lamøy, the Environmental Manager at PSTEREO festival, says she has managed to live without clothes shopping for almost a year. Most of her clothes come from clothes swapping events, which are held at DIGS, Soil Café and between friends.

The purpose of the swapping events is to reuse existing resources. The fact that you get ‘new’ clothes is a positive side effect, and not the main reason of it. If there is something else needed, which you wouldn’t like to get used, it’s wise to wait until the next possibility to get it from somebody as a gift. You can write a list, and ask friends, when there is occasion, like a birthday. Janina recommends not to buy things, but to get experiences instead. If shopping is necessary, there should be put limits on how much one can spend, and always try to buy used first.

To be environmentally friendly is not just for individuals. Janina mentions that PSTEREO has several approaches towards reaching their sustainability goals. For example, they are using organic short-travelled cotton for their volunteer t-shirts and, when it comes to food, local producers and businesses are encouraged to sell their products during the festival. Artist areas are equipped with reused furniture. And lastly, it is also very economical to be environmentally friendly. The less you use or more you reuse, the less you pay, which is a good side effect!

buy far more than we actually need, and that we buy bad quality clothes that end up being used for a short time. The advice from JOHNNYLOVE is to start caring about what you wear.

Hilde Opoku, the leader of the Miljøpartiet De Grønne (Green party) in Trondheim thinks that fashion trends nowadays actually are environmentally friendly and sustainable.

Designers have decided to use only fabrics produced within the EU, mainly in Italy, as that allows them to follow the quality standards they have set to themselves. These fabrics are made using fewer chemicals and water, and in general produce less waste during the production of textiles. The clothes as a result take longer to wear and tear, and they keep their colors longer.

Manufacturing and producing is located within short distance from each other, and that allows keeping lower gas usage and transportation costs.

According to Hilde, second-hand shopping is just partly solving the problem, as it only helps if the products are sold again in the same place where they are bought. If the clothes are made in Asia, sold in Europe, and then travel to Africa, the impact we create for the environment is huge. Hilde has experience from Ghana, where huge amounts of second-hand clothes are causing an array of environmental, cultural and social problems.

They are often inappropriate for the local weather and habits, and thus unusable. As a result, our help is often just dumped, and it also destroys tradition of locally made clothes in Ghana, as people find it cheaper to get second hand clothes instead of going to seamstresses.

“Most important is to buy quality. Buy something that you can relate to, that you would like to have for a long time. Educate yourself about where your clothes are made. Ask the shops if they know where their clothes are produced. If you care, the store starts to care!” he said.

So, as we see, there are options out there about how to deal with a growing issue of our needs and wants regarding fashion.

To sum it up are a few key ideas to keep in mind: start caring, start asking and think wisely before buying new. We must keep in mind the long-term consequences our actions today will have.

Hilde thinks we should get more information about the products in the shops – where and how they are made and what materials have been used, that is lacking right now. Her shopping is based on the notion that clothes should be only bought when necessary, and then they should be lasting and of a good quality.

Another concern when buying new is how it has been made.

Emma Jarvis, the organizer of Vegan fair in Trondheim, recommends wearing vegan-friendly fashion. Vegan fashion is clothing and accessories made from cruelty-free sources, meaning that no animal products were used in making the garments. Cruelty free means also less CO2 in the air, and therefore is environmentally friendlier. This year, the Vegan Fair was also presenting a vegan fashion show.

Local designer John Vinnem, designer and CEO of JOHNNYLOVE, agrees that fashion is a big polluter. However, according to John, the problem is not that we need clothes, but that we

LEGENDS AND THE LIKE Words: Andrew Christopher Anfinnsen, booking manager at BrukBar / Blæst

As I’m writing this, the news has just broken that The Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen, has been announced to perform in Trondheim this summer. Understandably, people are going wild – from several generations of music fans to cultural journalists and proud politicians. Hotels and restaurants will be filled as people will be flocking to Mid-Norway’s hub for the show.

“Finally there’s hope for Trondheim as a concert city!” they say. They’re probably right about that in terms of stadium shows, and as a fan I’m cheering along as well.

But as a local promoter and year-round live enthusiast, whenever there’s talk of artists like the Stones, Dylan, Springsteen, Metallica et al being the only names that are big enough to define a “concert city”, my knees jerk wildly. Anyone who’s followed the various venues and festivals of this city should know that the artists we are able to attract by far outsize the city’s population. Here’s to remembering a couple highlights, both big and small, from recent years!

JAY-Z

@ UKA in 2009

Probably the most successful rap artist / businessman of our time, he triggered some serious paparazzi craze when he had wifey Beyoncé tagging along to see the sights.

THE XX

@ PSTEREO in 2013

Bringing along a huge crew and production for their rather stripped down and minimalistic sound, the band gave us one of the year’s finer live experiences shortly after the release of their second album.

SWANS

@ BLÆST in 2015

Topping several year-end lists of international critics for their last two recent records, the legendary NYbased noise rock band played for a sold out but intimate capacity at Blæst just about a year ago.

WU-TANG CLAN

@ FAMILIEN in 2012/2013

JAMES BLAKE

@ SUPA in 2009

You may know him as a major electronic / pop artist, but he DJ’d for just a few dozen enthusiasts at the now extinct nightclub Supa right around the release of his first hit single.

After an unfortunate festival cancellation, GZA and Raekwon performed in what they described as a living room - the now defunct Familien. A few months later, Ghostface Killah played the same intimate stage. Legendary!

... and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Springsteen will be huge, but make sure to follow your local nightlife, as you never know when you’ll see a legend at a jam-packed intimate club! Personally, I’ll be looking forward to host Sun Kil Moon in June, and enjoying a couple cold ones at this year’s Pstereo festival seeing Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth fame. Trondheim is very much a city for great live shows already.

After many years in London, Jeremy’s work took him to LA and they moved across the pond. When Astri got pregnant, the time was right to settle down in a less hectic place. After four and a half years, they swapped the city of angels for a more down-to-earth lifestyle in Trondheim.

If they are missing big city life, they are not showing it. They love how Trondheim is “a city that knows its own identity,” and are finding the lack of arrogance and ego refreshing. Æ for individuality The location will be a big part of the salon’s identity. The name Æ, the pronoun for ‘I’ in the local dialect, was chosen partly to embrace the identity of being a Trønder.

Minimalistic Scandinavian design has influenced the salon’s look and the photographer they are working with is local. Æ’s brand shoot features “real people” rather than models, ranging from an NTNU student to a local chef. “The idea is to utilise our experience from the places we have lived and combine this with local influences and talent,” explains Jeremy.

Lights, hair, action!

Words: Karin Modin Photo: Nikol Herac

This Trondheim power couple knows how to style some serious locks, and are here to give Trondheim some LA style and London flare.

Jeremy Davies-Barbala has created looks for fashion designers and Hollywood actresses; and his wife Astri Barbala has modelled for fashion houses such as Jean Paul Gaultier. Having spent the last decade in London and LA, this stylish husband and wife team have put their roots down in Trondheim, and have opened their hair salon and academy hybrid ‘Æ’.

Their salon is based around the core values of suitability, obtainability and sustainability. That, and Jeremy’s extensive experience. During his 20-year career, he has been the Senior Creative Director for Vidal Sassoon for several years, heading up both the flagship stores in London and Beverly Hills. Jeremy credits his wife with making his work better by adding a less technical perspective.

As well as modelling, Astri has worked within journalism and media, and is currently doing an MA in visual culture. Her perspective on hair is largely a cultural one. “I love how hair is so attached to culture, history and politics,” she says. “Hair can be such a powerful statement.”

12

Æ is also about individuality, about getting to know each client and creating the right look for that person. “We want every client that comes in here, to have a great experience,” says Astri. “It is about how can we tailor our look for each individual person.”

Training academy and creative space In addition to being a salon, Æ is also a hair education centre. Jeremy has spent a large part of his career being an educator and now he wants to offer training to Scandinavian hairdressers.

They are also hoping to hold events here and allow people to exhibit their work on the walls. “We want to create a creative space,” says Jeremy.

“It is important for us to be part of the community, both the creative and the small business communities.”

There is no shortage of hairdressers in Trondheim, but they are not worried about the competition. “I feel our approach is different, we do not see it purely a business to make the up the numbers,” says Astri. “It is a family business, it is going to be fun.”

Up until now they have done pretty much everything themselves. They have barely seen each other for two months as Jeremy has all but turned carpenter. He has been grafting, building a reception desk, painting and generally fixing up the space. Astri has also put her skills to good use, putting their philosophy into words and designing their website.

All about balance With daughter Eira now one, the time was right for a new venture. “It is something we have always talked about, how can we marry our interests for hair in a way were we can work together,” says Astri.

From big city lights to Northern Lights

“Making our hobby our life’s work, that is really what we are trying to do here. Making sure our life has balance and making it fit around the most important person in our relationship, which is our daughter,” says Jeremy.

Londoner Jeremy and Stjørdal-born Astri have been a couple for ten years. They first met when he was working as a creative director and she was a hair model. They saw each other several times at various fashion shows across the world, until one late night they bonded over a bottle of whisky. The rest, as they say, is history.

With Jeremy admitting to still having clients in LA that will insist on him flying over to do their hair, we have to ask; is a Jeremy haircut something normal people can afford? “Our prices will be competitive,” he promises.

“What I do not what to do, is to extort people. Being obtainable is really important to me.”

A Bunad for all Words: Jarle Hagen

N

orway’s traditional costume, the ‘bunad’, is sewn from fairytales and folklore, reminiscent of an agrarian society that once was. At the time when Norwegian society was establishing its own confederation, developing a separate written language and other national symbols of independence, bunads were being constructed as national icons of costume. Today, they represent a unique Norwegian identity.

Norwegians outfit themselves in their bunads for moments of everyday life and in festivity, in times of sorrow and in rejoice. In fact, the costume-clad can be seen at nearly all Norwegian celebrations, especially special occasions such as baptisms, weddings and confirmations.

Both women and men can be seen donning this apparel, though mostly women. Nearly 70 percent of all Norwegian women over the age of 15 own a bunad, while only seven percent of all Norwegian men of the same age. That being said, a bunad can be spotted in every significant stage or event throughout a Norwegian’s lifetime.

“traditions Today, old and new bunad are co-existing side

by side. Bunad culture is one of living development, new styles and old, streaming the past into contemporary ways.

THE LIST trd T HE T E NT H ISSU E

Norway is a narrow country with a long coast, shrouded by high mountains, deep valleys, elongated rivers and grassy plains – each location is unique, and appropriately, nearly every village and valley has its own cherished costume or bunad.

Bunads offer a sense of social belonging, they are an identity marker that says something about your roots, your origins, where you call home.

For well over a hundred years ago in several places across Norway, folk costumes were commonly used in living tradition.

Even up until as recently as the 80s, one could find a few older

women out-and-about in Telemark, dressed in these costumes as their everyday attire.

National costumes, and specifically, the craftmanship of the bunad, can be bountiful sources of knowledge from earlier days.

It reveals clues about lifestyles along the coast and village residences; about flora and fauna. About the cultural heritage and cultural influences of former times; musings from the European continent and great powers further to the south and east. The cultural heritage we see today is the result of man’s relentless pursuit and ability to innovate and foster change. This is reflected in the adaptation of traditional costume over time.

There is a resurgence of intrigue and popularity for use of bunads in modern-day Norway, remarkably so during the past 20 years. Not everyone, however, wishes to evoke all of the traditions of the past. Some wish to modernise the use of the bunad, while still keeping the aesthetics close to its roots.

Of course Bunads are not cheap, but they are bespoke, meaningful and built to last for generations. One of Norway’s most famous producers, Norsk Flid Hiusfliden, says “this is the exciting aspect of costumes: they live longer than those that they are made for. It is one of the few things which you never throw away, a heirloom which will be inherited and used again.”

Such examples can be found in the ’bunad tie,’ a product available for 93 percent of the male population opting away from a traditional bunad, or even females wishing to put a twist on their 17th of May celebrations.

Designers from Sptzbrgn have created an ’old craftmanship meets new tradition’ bunad. Their ’costume ties’ are embroidered handiworks, where the artwork and costume mimick traditional and geographically-connected designs of some of the most famous and beloved womens’ bunads.

Bunad slips are faithful to the core values of bunad culture, yet highly original. Each are hand-made and each tie uses Norwegian materials used to create traditional bunads, using fabric and bulky wool that is carded, spun and dyed in Norwegian tradition.

Recreations of the traditional bunad will likely continue, as new designers experiment with carrying on the symbolic nature of traditional costume, while dressing themselves for modern day celebrations. Norwegian bunads will increase in popularity as with trend, and new adaptations of their cultural heritage will find its way into oncoming design.

Spring, and especially May, is a time when the Norwegian bunad is in full bloom. At a high season for national romanticism and celebration, a beautiful time awaits us.

ART + SPACE PUNKTET VISNINGSROM Words: Laura-Ann Morrison

Who are you - PUNKTET? punktet is an exhibition arena which focuses on the theme art and space in Trondheim. punktet consists of 23 art history students divided into different sections. We work with two exhibitions each year, which are taking place in the springtime.The exhibition period for each project is five days, where we arrange different happenings, like artist talks, performances and lectures. In this way, we want the exhibitions to be a dynamic and vibrant contribution to the city’s art scene.

We want to explore the theme of art and space, by pulling the contemporary art out of the common white cube. We wish to create a situation where art and space can influence, but also challenge each other. In doing so, we hope that the audience perceives both the art and the space in a new manner. Up until now, we have used places around the city, which is usually closed off to the public. Last year in 2015, Mikael Jacobsson and Øyvind Sørfjordmo had the exhibition Analog Virtual Reality in one of the quays in Kjøpmannsgata 27 in March. For the April exhibition David Breida created Oh the Sisters of Mercy in the cellar at Bakke Gård, which was previously used as a monastery. Jacobsson and Sørfjordmo kept the focus for their exhibition on the architectonic challenges of the location, while Breida had a more historical focus.

The exhibitions of 2016 was also held at different locations. For the March exhibition, Hanna Fauske used the guarding towers at Bakke Bru, to create the exhibition Guardians of the Bridge. Fauske invented two fictional characters and created a certain atmosphere in the towers. By using different techniques she activated the public senses, through smell, sound and visual elements.

For the April exhibition Pink Shoelaces, we used the whole area at Skansen. We got access to Skansen lighthouse, an old power station and Skansen Station. In addition to this, the artists were also invited to use the newly developed outdoor area. The curators David Breida and Jeremy Welsh asked 15 young artists to interpret the place in their own way.This resulted in a diverse exhibition with several different artistic mediums that communicated with the space in their own particular manner. There were performances, video installations, sculptures and installations.

Tell me about PUNKTET from the beginning – The idea for punktet started when a group of art history students went to Helsinki on a study trip in 2014. We suddenly realized that there were many of the students which had competencies in other disciplines, like economics, education and project management. In addition to this, we wanted to use our theoretical knowledge and combine it with practical work to create a showroom, run by art history students. We saw an opportunity to use our art historical knowledge, in relations to the contemporary art scene in Trondheim.

So we pitched the idea for our institute – institute for art and media at NTNU, and the response we got was more positive than we could have hoped for. We knew that we had an idea, but the actual form derived from the first project phase, which took place in the autumn of 2014. We approached many different ideas, through brainstorming and workshops.

We thought about building our own gallery, to buy a bus or to have a floating dock and place a container on top of it. At last, we settled on the idea of borrowing different locations throughout the city, and that this would go well with our concept about art and space. From there, we started looking for suitable locations, to host exhibitions corresponding to our theme.

This was a new experience for all of us, and we were excited about how it would be received by Trondheims artscene, and also the population as a whole. We got financial support from Trondheim Kommune and Faculty for Humanities at NTNU, so that we could start planning the exhibitions and finally see them happening for the first time in the spring of 2015.

How can/are PUNKTET collaborate with international artists? punktet has an open call once a year, where artists can apply for the two different exhibitions. We want the applying artists to interpret the space in which the exhibition will take place. It is also an important factor that the artists is relatively unestablished (min. 6 years since finished studies) and that they have a connection to Trondheim. This year we got a lot of applications from the students at the Academy of Fine Arts here in Trondheim,

which also house a lot of international students. Except from the demand that the artists has a connection to Trondheim, we don’t have any other demands about the whereabouts or origins of the artists. It is an overall goal for us to focus on artists who in some way are connected to Trondheim. For the Skansen exhibition, Pink Shoelaces, a great diversity of artists exhibited, from countries around the world. This resulted in a collaboration between artists from different places in Norway, and also Sweden, Spain, Palestine, and the Netherlands.

What are your future prospects and goals?

We wish that punktet will continue to live on. By now, we are starting to feel more established as an exhibition site in Trondheim, and the positive responses is a big motivation for our further work. Trondheim is a city with a thriving and vibrant art scene, and to be a part of this has been a great experience for all of us. Therefore, we see that there is a great value to keep building on what we have achieved so far, and that punktet can take new and different forms in the future. punktet is run on a volunteer basis, by students, so we rely heavily on the freedom and flexibility that we are given, by hosting exhibitions on a yearto-year basis. We have seen that there is much to gain on creating this kind of environment, where students can meet across disciplines and gain knowledge by making something together.

We also hope to create a scene in Trondheim where young and unestablished artists can be given the opportunity to show their work. For art history students, it is also a good introduction to what is expected from them after they have finished their studies.In working with punktet, we gain experiences, develop networks and get to see our own discipline with new eyes.

Furthermore, we get to see the value in giving art experiences to the population of Trondheim. With our theme art and space and the different locations, we hope to reach out to a bigger audience in the public as a whole. For each exhibition, we invite and arrange school classes to come and participate in the exhibition through their own experiences. It is very interesting to witness how children react to contemporary art, where as many of them have never faced it before. In that way, we hope to give them a little introduction to what the contemporary artworld has to provide. Hopefully it will be easier for them to approach art in on their own on other occasions.

Which significant artists would you highlight at this moment? And why?

It is not possible to name just one, as there is so much exhilarating going on. This year, we have had the pleasure to work with a wide range of artists. All in all, there has been 18 artists involved in the two exhibitions. All of these artists work in Trondheim, some still in the academy, and some have already graduated. This wide selection of artists has proved to us that there is much to gain in paying attention to what is happening on the artscene in Trondheim, especially with the younger artists. We are excited to see how their artistic practise will develop in the future. Trondheim is a city with an open and well-established art scene, which also often features young artists.

Upcoming exhibitions?

Our way of working with punktet, is the specific process we use when working towards each exhibition.This is, in a way the whole nerve in punktet – we are not absolutely sure how the exhibition will look, until the actual opening night. Working like this, gives us flexibility and freedom which we value, it also entails that our successors are free to give the project new forms in the future.Therefore, it is hard to say at this stage what form punktet will take for 2017, as we enter a new planning phase the coming autumn. We have nothing concrete planned yet, but hopefully, we will find new and exciting locations and continue to work with other artists the following year.

STYLE // DESIGN Intro by Karianne Skillberg

When it comes to shopping Trondheim is, as any other big city, full of the main high street shops such as H&M, Bikbok, Zara and Weekday. In addition we have the more expensive shops such as Høyer, Retro and Kleins who many of us know about already. In these shops one usually finds lots of nice items, at the same time as they give us somewhere to turn in those cases when you have to run out to buy an outfit to the party happening the same night.

In addition to these shops, Trondheim also has several independent shops, and I have especially fallen in love with the little fashion universe which Shine has managed to create in Thomas Angells Gate.The whole atmosphere, not to mention the interior at Shine, separates the shop from most others and it almost feels like you disappear into another world. The owner, Charlotte originates from France, and this is probably where she has gathered her inspiration from when it comes to the interior. Shine stocks, amongst others, Isabel Marant, Aesop, Tom Wood and Lovchild 1979. Aesop, which I purchase both for myself and my dog, Kåre, has the best products.

Highly recommended!

When it comes to how I dress in everyday life here in Trondheim, this can lead to trouble regarding the weather. In any given day it can be both sunny with blue sky in the morning, and all of the sudden it is raining cats and dogs afterwards.

Not very cool when you happily left home with a leather jacket without a hood, and wearing Converse. But the one band-aid is that Johnny Love started designing clothes for girls a couple of seasons ago, and has recently opened a new flagship store in Olav Tryggvasonsgate. He has made a point

out of designing functional and trendy clothes, adapted to the Trønderske weather. The fact that we have a local designer in town, who experiences every-day life in the same way we do, AND can take this into consideration when he designs his clothes is pretty cool.

A while back I was lucky enough to be inited to the re-opening of Companys at Trondheim Torg. It was packed with people, and Charlotte Torstvedt ensured there was cool music, sushi, Macaroons and something bubbly in the glass. In addition they gave everyone 20% of anything in the shop, something which gets Trønders who are already fond of shopping in an even better mood. As a fashion blogger one is invited to quite a few events, most of which take place in Oslo. I think this is a bit far to travel for a small goodie bag, and it makes it even more fun to part-take in a smashing opening such as this here in Trondheim. (I also know that Livid in Olav Tryggvasonsgate recently opened a vintage shop in basement, something which alone should be celebrated as there aren’t many concepts like that here in town. kristinekolstad.format.com

Q &A

Anniken Zahl Furunes, Hege Magreth Åbelvold Dare2Design

Who are you and what do you do?

We are a design studio called Dare to designstudio. founded in Trondheim by two interior designers, Anniken Zahl Furunes and Hege Magreth Åbelvold. In our name, we say ‘Dare to’, because we are always trying to challenge ourselves and our own possibilities. ‘Dare to’ do something different, do it in a different way or by different means.

We design special interior and furniture solutions, as well as conceptual interior design. Most recently, we have designed a storage system called Organize. It is produced here in Norway at Stranda in Sunnmøre. We collaborate with both big and small companies here in Trondheim, and across the country.

What are you passionate about?

Our passions are in quality materials, and functional innovative solutions. We are also passionate about Norwegian-made products and local development. We wish to contribute to the development of new Norwegian industry and opportunity.

How did you get involved in this work?

We created and founded the design studio ourselves after doing a project in 2014 called Trondheim Designevent. We wanted to continue working together after being on our own for several years. Together we could create even bigger things and take on bigger interior design projects. Organize was designed after discovering the lack of good flexible Norwegian made storage systems. We started designing the furniture we couldn’t find in the stores.

What attracted you to starting this in Trondheim?

We both live in Trondheim and we both love the city. It has many possibilities and great people to work with. Trondheim is an innovative city with many high quality educational facilities and firms. Trondheim is also small enough to meet the right people and big enough to create the best opportunities.

What is unique about being here as opposed to other cities?

We feel that in Trondheim people are genuine and easy going. We have discovered that people are concerned about each other. They see the value in helping other companies and creating synergistic effects.

Do you have an affiliation or attachment to a style or design community here in the city?

We collaborate with many design communities and companies. We like to get to know new people, and try to check out anything new that is happening here. We also arranged Trondheim Designevent in 2014 for all the different design players here in our area. It was a big success and launched many projects for those who participated.

Andrea Danielle Josefsen Coma Frisør As a hairstylist and makeup artist at Coma Frisør, I have had the opportunity to work with beauty highlighted by natural products. For me, inspiration is never far away in a team that

is so experienced in their field. It is incredibly great to get to help our guests to cultivate their natural beauty and to get to channel my creativity in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way. It allows me to grow as an artist, and it’s because of that I decided to become a hairstylist.

What do you see for the future of the design and style industry in Trondheim in the next five years?

We see that many new companies are starting up and think that design is an up and coming industry in both Trondheim and Norway in general. We think and hope that design will get the same focus as technology has had. What would technology be without good design? Good design enhances great technology, gives it often a better user experience and appearance. We see ourselves as a big contributor to the design industry in the next five years, as well as being an established exporter of Norwegian design to the international market.

JULIE ØSTERAAS Q &A

BAKKLANDET BLOMSTER

Can you tell us about yourself?

I run a flower shop called Bakklandet blomster, and as of now it’s basically just me, but I do have great help from three girls throughout the week.

Can you describe your work?

We want to offer an alternative to the classic flower shop. We want to find different kinds of flowers and plants that you might not find elsewhere, and make the bouquets as personal as possible. We don’t have a background in flower decoration, but a background in design and fashion from Esmod in Berlin, and hope that we can use that experience to create a different kind of shop here in Trondheim.

1

What are your passions, or core values?

We strive to offer something new. We love to create bouquets together with the costumer, to make it as personal as possible. We also want the customer to feel free to create something themselves if they wish to. We are always searching for new plants and flowers and are eager to get hold of breathtaking colours and weird and lovely plants. We focus on quality as well so all our products that are not flowers and plants in the shop are handmade and have a good story to tell.

How did you get involved in this work?

It was really an impulsive action. My soon-to-be husband and I were drinking coffee at Dromedar and saw the lady running the gallery located next door, moving out. We said to ourselves, maybe we should just call and see if it is free, and by luck we were the first ones to call.Then it was just things falling into place after that!

What attracted you to starting this in Trondheim?

Bakklandet is such a lovely area and we have a dream that there will be even more shops and things happening here. We already have good coffee and food; but what else was missing? Now the neighbours don’t have to go to the city center to get flowers. Trondheim is changing at a fast speed, in a really good way, and I think more and more people are looking for small shops that don’t belong to a chain, and not located in a mall! We travel more, and get more inspired, but we thought it would be cool to bring some Europe-feeling back to Trondheim.

What is unique about this city?

I feel that the people in Trondheim are not as superficial as other places. We are easygoing and are eager to learn and easily inspired. We are tired of being called “Trege trøndera”, because I think we’re not!

Do you have an affiliation or attachment to a style or design community here?

No not really, but my boyfriend Magnus runs SEAMS

at Bakklandet and is also a designer and developer, so of course I’m lucky to to be a part of his world.

Also almost all of my friends are working somehow with design.

What is the future of the design and style industry in Trondheim?

I think it will continue to develop and hopefully we will see more locally made craftsmanship, small shops and new brands starting. I think people will appreciate the originality you find in chain-free shops, and that the city center will be more popular than all the malls

outside city center. I think also more and more people and agencies will look to Trondheim-based agencies working with design and use them as much as any other design agencies in Norway. I think quality will be a core value.

Q &A

KLIPP OG LIM

Q &A

EMIL KHOUY SKUKTUR

What’s your organization and who are your team members?

Klipp og Lim is an agency and production company delivering services within film, animation, design and communication strategy. Besides working with our clients, we’re also passionate about our own productions, several of which have achieved international recognition.

The team consists of 12 passionate professionals ranging from 26 to 49 years old. Whether it’s 3D or 2D-animation, film production, graphic or web design, art direction, or puppetry, each employee is a specialist in their area.

What’s your organization and who are your team members?

Skurktur is a design studio run by Arne Skeie and Emil Khoury.

What kind of products are you building – describe your work?

Whether we work with our clients or on our own productions, we love to tell stories, and everything we build starts with this passion. For our design projects, we make anything from ads, illustrations and reports to complex digital campaigns and exhibitions.

In film production we love to try new methods to achieve a unique expression, and we have a 500 square meter studio in Lade where we experiment and build large miniature film sets from paper, wood and different types of fabrics.

3. What are your passions and what are your core values?

We think of what we do as visual storytelling. With all our work we strive to create stories that keep the viewers interest over time.

What are your passions and what are your core values?

Klipp og Lim’s vision is to make incredibly great stuff, and have an incredibly great time doing it. For our clients we have a passion for simplifying complex subject matters, whether through film, animation or design. For our own productions, our ambition is an international break-through.

We are also passionate about the community and young people in the region, and contribute where we can to attract good brains to stay in Trondheim.

5. How did you get involved in this work?

We both studied industrial design at NTNU, and bonded through a shared interest in illustration and visual communication. Skurktur started out as an after school project and gradually evolved from there.

How did you get involved in this work?

The company started as a film production agency in 2000 and has throughout the next 16 years developed into what we are today.

What attracted you to starting this in Trondheim/What do you like about operating in Trondheim?

We want to be able to make great stuff and build a community around us, without having to leave our families and move to LA. Trondheim is a vibrant student city with a growing start-up scene and many sources of inspiration and new ideas.

What is unique about this environment (in Trondheim) as opposed to others?

Especially the regional film industry is a tight knit community, with a unique sharing culture envied by other regions in Norway. Whilst we’re all competitors we’re also dependent on each other to make Trondheim a great city for film.

Do you have an affiliation or attachment to a style or design community here in the city?

Klipp og Lim have always been a central player in both the design and film communities.

We have been on the local board of Grafill, the national interest organization for visual communication, since this was set up. Our CEO represents the film industry in the local business association (NiT), we are on the advisory boards for both film and animation at Høyskolen Kristiania and we actively work with NTNU, Høyskolen Kristiania and NAV to help students and young people get industry experience.

What do you see for the future of the design and style industry in Trondheim (where do you see it being in 5 years)?

The ad agencies have strongly influenced design style the past 30-40 years. We believe we will see the rise of more specialist companies within different niches, such as illustration, text, strategy, digital marketing, film, etc.

Another key trend is that social media and VR-technology is creating a seismic shift in how we think about film, animation and design.This is one of our key focus points and will be essential for survival and success the next five years.

2. What kind of products are you building – describe your work?

We do design and illustration based works for big and small clients around the world. Our work includes album artwork, editorial illustrations, mural painting, branding / visual identity, art prints, apparel, and more.

4. Where are you located?

We’ve been running our operation from DIGS for the last couple of years. Just this month we relocated to a new studio space near Ladehammeren.

6. What attracted you to starting this in Trondheim/What do you like about operating in Trondheim?

Trondheim is intimate and friendly in the sense that it’s easy to establish a good network within a variety of communities. At the same time, the city feels big enough to provide room for our somewhat specialized niche of design.

7. What is unique about this environment (in Trondheim) as opposed to others?

Trondheim has over the last couple of years seen the establishment of some very good hubs for connecting people and ideas, such as DIGS, where a variety of skills and expertise is gathered under the same roof. Being part of this environment has allowed us to collaborate with and draw inspiration from a lot of areas outside of the typical design community.

8. Do you have an affiliation or attachment to a style or design community here in the city?

A good portion of our work is created for clients that in fact are good friends of ours. So whether we create cover artwork for a regional band or branding a for local bar, there’s almost always a sense of involvement and attachment to one community or the other.

9. What do you see for the future of the design and style industry in Trondheim (where do you see it being in 5 years)?

We think the city will see a lot more bottom up entrepreneurial activity along with the facilitation of small scale community projects.

There seem to be a growing sense of responsibility within smaller communities to take care of their immediate surroundings, and to create more versatile structures for trade and communication.

We think design will play a crucial role in this development.

Q &A

JENS OLAV DANKERTSEN

LIVID JEANS

What’s your organization and who are your team members?

I often get the impression that people think we are way bigger than what we actually are. The reality is that we’re really indie! Meaning: we do not have any big contributors or investors but are simply a small company owned by family and friends. Built organically from the ground up, by doing what we believe in based on simple values around supporting local trade, sustainable production and making quality-made goods. Our organisation is small and includes 6 fulltime employees and 4 part-time.

Can you describe your work?

We’ve always striven to build products under the assumption that you will buy the best you can afford if you can understand the difference. If you don’t understand the difference, then you’ll start looking at the price again. It might cost a little more, but you are investing in a product that lasts, the people who are making the product, and a sustainable chain of value behind it. Expensive and cheap are subjective and comparative labels unfair towards the actual people working in the supply chain. We hope people can appreciate that there is so much more behind the price tag.

Photos by Ole Ekker

What are your passions and what are your core values?

Our passion is definitively based on a fundament towards building garments of the best qualities we can find both locally and as sustainably as we can possibly achieve.

Where are you located?

We’re located in the white building in the middle of Olav Tryggvasons Gate. Just across from the Norwegian company Husfliden and just next to the Trondheim based mens brand Johnny Love.

How did you get involved in this work?

I got involved in jeans making after having worked with jeans for a couple of years. Jeans in general has so many different aspects both regarding to its manufacturing processes as well as the finished garment being a blank canvas in which there are million of different ways to create the end product. It definitively makes it challenging, but a whole lot of fun!

What attracted you to starting this in Trondheim?

Livid started in Trondheim simply because this was my home base. I moved to Trondheim at 19 years old to study. Now 10 years later I don’t have the slightest regret choosing this beautiful little small town city as my base. Living in Trondheim gives a feeling of the city life, but still has the small town hospitality and surrounding environment from a small town. That’s probably what I like the most. And, generally the people living here are simply great.

THE LIST trd T HE T E NT H ISS U E

Do you have an affiliation or attachment to a style or design community here in the city?

Unfortunately, I do not know that many people in the design community here besides John from Johnny Love and Marianne from Mørck. Basically because I don’t think the community is very active in Trondheim. Also, I think the city has struggled with being a “pit stop”. Most move to Trondheim to study, and when finished, they go back to where they came from - or in our market - they move to Oslo.

Because the assumption many might have is that success is easier to achieve there. I would love to be a contributor to breaking that assumption down.

Because in our market, Oslo have had little to nonto do with our success.

I think that Trondheim being a “pit stop” city is a story of the past though with all that has been happening here the last couple of years. And I do think that, in a couple of years, a general assumption will be that if you’re not here, than you’re in the wrong place.

What do you see for the future of the design and style industry in Trondheim (where do you see it being in 5 years)?

As I mentioned above, I think Trondheim as well as Bergen is about to become two of the most interesting cities when it comes to design and style industry.

MAGNUS HOLDER BJØRK SEAMS

What’s your organization and who are your team members?

Magnus Holder Bjørk is the company and store owner, and we have to employees who work mostly during weekends.

What kind of products are you building – describe your work?

We sell high quality menswear products, with a focus on design details and a strong brand history.

What are your passions and what are your core values?

“Kvalitet og varighet” — we want our customers to buy things they need, timeless goods that makes them enthusiastic and proud. And smart looking, of course.

Where are you located?

Nedre Bakklandet 20B and on this awesome thing they just invented called the “Inter Net”.

How did you get involved in this work?

I’ve always been very aesthetics-driven, and clothing and craftmanship has been a hobby and strong interest for a few years. I started SEAMS just out of passion, and it still is.

What attracted you to starting this in Trondheim/ What do you like about operating in Trondheim?

We moved back home after several years abroad, and I wanted to create something here that I missed from the places I’ve lived at.

What is unique about this environment (in Trondheim) as opposed to others?

It’s very relaxed, down to earth and not a pretentious way of living here. I love that.

Do you have an affiliation or attachment to a style or design community here in the city?

After being in the industry a little while you tend to know “everyone” who are doing the same; starting small niche business. So I often talk to the Livid-guys, Jacob at All Good Clean Records, Tony at Jacobsen and Svart, Charlotte at Shine, the girls behind Dare To Design etc. It’s a quite close knitted family and everyone wishes everyone the best.

What do you see for the future of the design and style industry in Trondheim (where do you see it being in 5 years)?

If the development we’ve seen the last 2-3 years continues, we will be a very attractive city outside our borders in only five years. It’s quite extraordinary to see what has happened in such a short period of time, and if we manage to keep students in Trondheim after they have completed their studies, the sky is the limit.

Kammerkoret Aurum Spring Concert

We bet you never heard of a choir singing in a skate park before? Seems like you live in a city that is full of surprises because, on the 21st May, Kammerkoret Aurum will be doing just that.

Aurum is a high profiled chamber choir from Trondheim, that started on their path to glory back in 2006. The choir consists of 24 members and they like to call themselves the ‘champions of choir’. This might be considered a bit over the top in regular circumstances, but not for this group. They’ve been winning awards year after year and even had a victory in the Norwegian Song Contest. They say they’ll provide some landscaping work for the concrete

floors of Trikkestallen for your pleasure, and they will do so with their voices. Aurum hopes to bring the sensation of forest life to your minds, the scent of bark and moss, the sound of chirping birds and the feeling of spring. This is quite ambitious but with conductor Eva Holm Foosnæs at the helm, we have no doubt they will succeed.

“Aurum chamber choir with conductor Eva Holm Foosnæs welcomes you to an untraditional concert experience at Trikkestallen, Lademoen,” explains organiser Tora Söderström Gaden. “Among the graffiti and skateboard ramps, the award-winning choir will present a cappella music by composers such as

Grieg, Nystedt, Mäntyjärvi, Overøye, and Augustinas. The concert with also be the premiere of repertoire from their newly recorded CD composed

by Odd Johan Overøye, Øyvind Johan Eiksund and Martin Eikeset Koren. Welcome!”

The Common Sense

Jimmy Carr, Funny Buisiness World Tour

Melanie Gilligan’s exhibition The Common Sense will be on display at Trondheim art museum until October. There are many reasons why even the laziest exhibition attenders should see it. “The work extrapolates some really pressing questions about how we use, and increasingly depend on social media, smartphones, and information technology. Besides, it makes you think, the way all good science fiction should,” says curator of the exhibition and director of Trondheim kunstmuseum, Johan Börjesson.

A top class comedian, always well-dressed, seems like a classy gentleman, likeable and nice. He looks very polished on the outside, but as soon as he opens his mouth the facade evaporates. He will insult you, your mother, your partner, and say a bunch of other offensive stuff, but you will laugh and clap and go home smiling, such his power over you. You’ll even pay for the privilege! The only the people in the theatre who might go home unscathed those at the far back, so pick your seatr wisely.

In the story, which is presented on fifteen screens like mini TV-series and spread across two exhibition halls, the viewer is allowed to choose episodes at their own pace, while still being with others in the room. Interacting by experiencing the artwork together. It is an imaginary, yet vivid world, where characters communicate nonverbally. Instead, they are feeling what others think and physically feel via the ‘Patch’, which they insert in their mouths every morning. It is an alarming reminder of how close the security services are to controlling our lives, and how close this imaginary world is to reality.

Carr is famous for his one-liner jokes, his deadpan humor, interacting with the audience and his distinct laugh that IMDB describes “as high-pitched with irregular intervals”.

To give you a little taste, this is what he said on the topic of being a modern man: ‘’I have no problems with buying tampons. I am a fairly modern man. But apparently they’re not a ‘proper’ present. Happy birthday, mum!”

This doesn’t even begin to describe his usual level of offensiveness, but I am not allowed to post more in these pages, so you will just have to experience it for yourself. His Funny Buisiness World Tour comes to Trondheim, Olavshallen on the 22 May. Be aware, the show is only suitable for those with tickets!

“Jimmy Carr visited us with Gagging Order last May and sold out the venue (approx 1200 seats),” said Marit Glimstad, information coordinator at Olavshallen. “We are very excited to have him back and Carr says Trondheim was a sure choice when booking the Funny Business Tour, even if it

means working on a Sunday. We expect this to be as rude, satiric and fun as last year. This is a man who doesn’t put anything in between. He says it like it is and the show is truly not for weak-hearted souls.”

Working on a Sunday is bad news for Norwegians, but you won’t be working, you’ll be laughing at Jimmy Carr while he’s working. What better way to spend your Sunday?

Røde Spor, An Exhibition and Play on a train, depicting WW II resistance “The history of liberty is a history of resistance,” according to Woodrow Wilson. During the Second World War, resistance fighters all over Europe fought for liberty. One group that did just that in Norway was the communist-led Thingstad/Wærdahl group.

You could read up on these freedom fighters online of course, but there are better ways to learn about history than to read about it: like witnessing it first hand. Yes, you read correctly…

Head down to Trondheim Central Station on 21 or 22 May and not only will you be able to ride a genuine vintage train from the 1950s, but 60-80 actors will play out stories of the resistance during World War II. These reenactments will take place on the train as well as at the various stations between Trond-

heim and the Swedish border. This project focuses on the role the railways played in the resistance. One of the wagons will house the exhibition Dark Track, and on Friday 20 May this exhibition will be open for viewing for free: just head to platform 22.

important trains were in the fight for freedom: from transporting refugees to spreading illegal newspapers, and even to sabotage. Experience the courage of the brave men and women that took a stand for freedom.

The project aims to “honour the heroic contributions of the red railway workers, who risked their lives to fight the Nazis and have been invisible after the war,” says Berit Rusten, who is organising the event.

Tickets can be bought online or at the station, but do note that tickets can only be purchased with cash if you decide to buy them at the station, and you will have to reserve tickets online. (AvdW)

History should be experienced, and this is an exclusive opportunity to do just that. If you are interested in the history of the resistance in Central Norway, don’t miss this chance to be a part of it. See just how

Tom Waits Trondheim Pub-to-Pub 2016

Svartlamodagen People everywhere are taking steps to change our planet for the better. Whether it’s by recycling, reducing your carbon footprint, or standing up for others, it’s hip to go green and play fair.

As it turns out, the rest of us are a bit late to the party: Svartlamon, in our very own Trondheim, has been a haven for the positive and the eco-friendly for decades. “Svartlamon is a colourful and alternative part of Trondheim and prides itself as being the first urban ecological trial project in Norway,” says Mia Svare, who is organising Svartlamodagen. If you’ve ever wanted to see just how fun and exciting an eco-friendly lifestyle can be, head down to Svartlamon on 30 May.

For the seventh consecutive year the Tom Waits pub crawl will snake its way around Trondheim on 28 May. Expect a throaty celebration all things Waits, with each pub putting on a tribute or something special to honour the legendary American blues singer. This is typically one of the more drunken events on the Trondheim calendar, and bartenders around town are on high alert for drunken devils who stray from the approved route and stagger into their establishments. But as Waits himself would tell you “there ‘aint no devil, it’s just god when he’s drunk”.

To acquire god-like status you will need to be at the first drinking hole, Byscenen, between 1pm and 2pm. The other points are, as tradition dictates, kept a secret. During this window you will be able to buy T-shirt (400 NOK), which gains you entry to the subsequent 6 pubs, many of which will have live entertainment. But the organisers are keen to point out that you are not obligated to hit

every bar: “we are all losers, proud losers,” states their Facebook page.

Tom Waits is a singer-songwriter renowned for his trademark creaking vocal chords and his atmospheric lyrics. Often crude, frequently seedy and always real, Waits songs are a real life blues soundtrack which transcends several musical periods. The bottom line about the Tim Waits Løpet (“the run”) is not about cheap beer, but about socialising with other Tom Waits fans, explains organiser Solveig Aspaas: “It’s like a happy stroll in your own little Tom Waits universe. A warm and welcoming festival where a hero is celebrated by 500 people in the same T-shirt, behaving like one big family.” (WL-W) 2 8 M AY 1pm onwards Start venue: Byscenen: Facebook: Tom Waits-Løpet Trondheim 2016 Cost: 400 NOK (for T-shirt, without T-shirt some bars will not let you in because of capacity)

In Svartlamon “people of all classes live in old wooden houses that once were threatened by demolition, but were fortunately occupied and saved by struggling political activists at the end of the 1990s. Its residents now try to maintain an alternative lifestyle focusing on political issues such as overconsumption, ecology and social justice.

On this day, we open our doors, backyards and hearts and invite everyone to an event filled with activities and happenings for people of all ages.”

And when it comes to opening their doors, the residents of Svartlamon don’t muck around: there’ll be a flea market, face painting, and delicious food during the day, and concerts and a trivia quiz during the evening. You can go on a guided tour, attend a short film viewing, and get a real taste of the history of this alternative part of Trondheim.

Make sure to walk, bike, or take the bus to Svartlamon, as the main road will be closed for traffic.

Of course that just gives you a head start on a day of environmentally-friendly fun! (AvdW)

Ladehammer Festivalen

The most epic children’s festival in Norway is happening again! It will be held at the Festningparken on the 4th and 5th of June 2016.

This festival is amazing for so many reasons, crucially its focus is on children and their families, as opposed to a being a ‘family day’ tacked on ti another event. Juba Juba organisers want families to get together and spend some quality fun time fun time. But how will adults enjoy a kids festival, you ask? They will probably just walk around while their kids have all the fun. Boooring!

Well, actually - no. Juba Juba wants to bring families together and give them the opportunity to enjoy cultural and educational activities on equal footing. So to clarify, there will be theatre, dance, art, music, games and more, and all intended for children and adults alike.

Juba Juba is actually a child itself, it only started last year but it already has an amazing reputation.

It also heavily relies on volunteer work and if you apply for volunteering they will reward you with two-day passes for one working shift. The job is interesting, fun and rewarding, and they’ll feed you as well. Priorities, right?

One of the most interesting things this year will be the performance by Bare Egil og Aslags, from the super popular children’s show. For the kids that want to see sciencey stuff there will be an explosive physics show with Selda Ekiz. And for those with the “I want to be a rock star when I grow up” attitude, there will be a workshop where they can make their own instrument from almost anything. This is just the tip of the ice berg; there will be so much more, a bit of everything for everyone. In any case, both children and adults will be mesmerised by this festival and will be asking “When’s the next one?!” before this one is even over. Go fetch your tickets. (KS)

And it’s back! The yearly music and family festival located at the top of Ladehammeren rocking out for the seventh time in a row. Featuring two nights of pop, punk, reggae and some metal bands from the Trondheim area, there’s enough to satisfy everyone’s taste. And just like in previous years, there will be simultaneous performances from two stages on both nights. Some of the bands lined up for performance this year include, Painted Romans, Helgeland 8-bit Squad and Østfrost.

Of course, not to forget the family day event which is turning out to be very popular among Trønders.

Last year this event alone had a turnout of over 1200 visitors with kids being entertained through different activities. This year promises to be even bigger and better with much more activities lined up. For example, the popular Rabalderdansen will be there entertaining and teaching kids “about body language through dance and movement”.

There’s also a puppet show presentation from students of ThIS (Trondheim International School) and many more fun activities.

Maybe the most inspiring part of this event is that everyone who takes part does it for free! The organisers, bands, performers... everyone involved is doing it as a voluntary effort. And that’s why the organisers are on the lookout for anyone willing to be a volunteer. ‘’We’ve got all kinds of tasks that needs to be done in planning the festival. We cannot give any economic compensation but you get to take part in a great enterprise and have the freedom to shape the festival,” enthuses festival organiser Simon Lie. Also all profits that may be made from the sale of merchandise of food and drinks is given to a non-profitable organisation. This year all proceeds will be given to Selvhjelp for innvandrere og flyktninger (SEIF). “SEIF is a voluntary and independent organisation that helps immigrants in

Norway to find their way in the Norwegian society and acquire enough information to solve their own problems,” according to Lie. He says they are working with SEIF this year because ‘’we are not happy with the way the government is handling the refugee situation. This is our way of trying to make a difference and let the refugees know they are welcome.’’

With the combination of positive philosophy and super live entertainment, I’m assuming there’s no need asking where everyone will be the weekend of 17-18 June!? See you there!

UKM National Festival

Korsvikaspillet, a blood-dripping story about Norway... ..., faith, loyalty and deadly love.

The scenic outdoor play Korsvikaspillet is set around one of the more famous stories from the Old Norse kings sagas, the story of how the last heathen king, Håkon Jarl, was killed by his serf in a pigs house at Rimol.

This nationwide festival is very interesting and quite famous. It starts off as a series of small festivals for all of Norway’s municipalities and then turns into a huge national event, showcasing the skills of the best 500 youngsters that have been chosen as representatives through their regional heats.

It involves music, literature, art, dance, photography… and more or less any talent imaginable that young people can and want to show off. Anyone under the age of 20 can participate and can enter the festival for free. If you’d like to represent your municipality then you have to be at least 13 years old, a talent is required but you don’t have to be especially good at it. Maybe you won’t reach the National festival, but you can expect to have fun and learn a lot!

The local heats are over for this year, but keep this information in mind for next year and try to experience the National UKM Festival, being held here in Trondheim from the 24th to the 28th of June. Expect a celebration of culture and youth and everyone is invited. These young people are the future of Norway’s culture and the people attending the festival may be witnessing the stars of the future.

“Experience 500 of the most talented young artists in Norway in the fields of music, art, film, dance, theatre, performances, workshops, and exhibition,” says Torstein Siegel, manager of UKM. (JS) 24 -2 8 J U N E Olavshallen, Trondheim Program to be announced on the 20th of May Price: TBA

The 16 kings sagas, Heimskringla, are written in Old Norse in Iceland by the poet and historian Snorri Sturluson around 1230 and tell the stories of the rulers in the nordic countries.

If you’re interested there are also opportunities to part-take Korsvikaspillet, either on stage or backstage, greeting people or hanging up posters.

The Ung Kutlur Møtes Festival (UKM) is all about young people and cultural expression. No old people allowed. Just kidding.

The story is that on Christmas Eve in the year 935 in Lade two boys were born. One is an Earls son, Håkon, the other one the serf Kark. As the norm of the customs of the time states, the serf is given as a gift to the young Earl. Despite the class differences, the two grow a close friendship. This comradeship is tested as Håkon and Kark become adults, and Kark supports his king in fighting to keep Christianity out of Trøndelag.

Cirkus Arnardo

Every now and then you need a bit of crazy in your life to keep you sane.

And what better way to quench that thirst than to see a crazy good show?

Cirkus Arnardo is on tour again with its 68th season, and this year it will be the only big circus touring Norway, so you don’t want to miss it.

But, let’s keep it real. Circuses are such old news. Their time is over, right? Wrong.

Even though the demand for circus entertainment has dropped in the past, the present and future of the circus industry looks amazing. Our modern day circus is nothing close to what a 19th century circus would have been like, and what would presently be considered boring to death.

Modern circuses offer shockingly amazing stunts and Cirkus Arnardo definitely doesn’t lack in that area. It employs revered and internationally recognised artists with high honours that will blow your mind whilst balancing on ropes, doing acrobatics and flinging themselves around the circus dome as if it was nobody’s business.

One such crazy cat is Christer Pettersen, a boy who was only nine when he asked the King of the circus, Arnardo, if he could join them. He was told to wait a few years. “Now Christer is finally here, after impressing audiences on several continents,” says Arnardo, and we can’t wait to see what his going to show us.

Do you remember the first time you ever saw the circus as a kid?

You were probably exhilarated because you would finally get to see it with your own eyes. The circus had a special aura around it, and it being so modern might have you thinking that the spark is gone, that you won’t ever feel that way again. Well, fret not, because Arnardo takes care of that as well.

“The atmosphere and authenticity are there, so until well into September, we hope to meet many thousands of happy circus friends of all ages,” says Arild Arnardo. Norway, prepare, Trondheim, be ready. (JS)

From muscle cars to convertibles, from SUVs to station wagons, and from minivans to microcars: ever since François Isaac de Rivaz designed the hydrogen-powered car in 1807 and changed history, cars have spoken to our imagination, starred on the silver screen, and features in many a daydream. See it all here!

Café Løkka

Named Best Café of the Year by National Geographic in 2012, Baklandet Skydsstation is an idyllic and peaceful café where you can enjoy delicious food and drinks in a traditional setting. Here you can enjoy a cup of homemade cocoa while looking out over Nidarosdomen. One of Trondheim’s most historical buildings which dates back to the 1700s, Baklandet Skydsstation has rave reviews from locals, tourists and media and is famous for its fish soup.

Bror is a bar and BBQ located in Nordre Gate, right in the heart of Trondheim. They specialize in craft beers and rum, served alongside burgers and southern California-style BBQ. All the meat is smoked in-house and cooked in a charcoal-fired grill. Mmmm! Go as you are – be it a quick drink, a full meal or a night out, Bror offers a warm welcome!

Between Bakklandet and Solsiden amongst the old remains of industry and brick walls you can find one of Trondheim’s hidden treasures, Café Løkka. Soothing indie, soul, funk and folk music is the backdrop of this unique setting. The ideal place to come and study, do lunch or just hang for a couple of beers; the ambience of Løkka is always perfect.
