The company is the Fittings Specialist in Fredericia, Denmark. It was a couple of months ago. As always I initiate the job by talking to the CEO. His name is Finn Roy, and he thorowly informed me about products, organisation, etc. We managed to drink three cups of coffee. The chemistry between us was right. Now you must see the robot, Finn

Merchandise...On-demand manufacturing...

Someone once told me that putting reproductions of art on sweatshirts, or carry-on bags is to bastardize artists' work.<br>Bastardize!<br>Last time we met I told you about my <a href="http://www.lonvig.org/portal-en.htm">Art Portals</a>.<br>Phase 2 of my Art Portal project is to bastardize every single of my art works on the Art Portals.<br>Bastardize is - as you might have guessed - not at all my favorite term for this.<br>I call it merchandise.<br&g

New Carlsberg Glyptotek...

This Friday I visited the New Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark known for the statue of the Little Mermaid. I came to Copenhagen very early in the morning. I had dropped my son off at Copenhagen Airport for a transatlantic flight. Copenhagen was still asleep. Baresso, my favorite coffee shop, opened at 7.30 a.m. So. I spent some time sightseeing before breakfast.<br><br><div style="text-align: center;"><IMG BORDER=0 SRC="http://www.lon

Today I am excited. Very excited! Tomorrow I'll make my first Interactive Lecture. The only thing I need is a projector and a fast line to the internet. The only thing I bring is myself.
