Average Days @ Hyper Island

Vacation = Freelance + Internshiphunt

Finally the day of the summer holiday has arrived! A time for sun, beach and hanging out with the gang.

OR…

Freelance work, updating the portfolio and hunting for Internships which is pretty much what I’m gonna spend my summer with.

The last days of the Hyper Island Recruitment process

were very tough but we pulled through and I am pretty satisfied with the outcome of it! Learned a ton about recruitment processes and also got a better insight about Hyper Island operates and works!

To talk a little bit about the freelance works

I can say that I recently delivered one job for >>Yoo.se!
I did an augmented reality landing page for them were the user can use the Yoo.se business card to get access to the navigation to the site. For an example print the symbol below and visit >>3d.yoo.se! You will need a webcam to get the point of the site.

The new job that I started working with yesterday is to update the photographer Daniel Blom’s portfolio! Really nice guy and a very skilled photographer! While you´re waiting for me to update his site, check it out now, he got some awesome work put up. >>Daniel Blom

And for all of you visual artists

MSA Remote was recently released for the Iphone. This means you can control software such as >>Max/MSP/Jitter, >>PureData, >>Reaktor, >>VDMX, >>vvvv, >>Resolume, >>Quartz Composer etc. via the Iphone! Will come in handy for some nice VJ-performances!

Looks like we are shadows afterall…

Yepp. 423 phonecalls, leaving messages and sending emails finally payed off. We got ourselves a workshadow spot.
(May have exaggerated a little)
Two spots actually! First we got one att Fröjd. Talked with a really nice guy who was intressted in having us so I booked the thing. But just a couple of minutes later my contact at Åkestam.holst called me up and told us they could have us also, so I booked that one to!

It worked out just fine and I gave Fröjd to Jade and Erik, who didn’t have a place to shadow.
So we start 9:00 on monday! Happy day!

The rest of the week we are doing some interviews with some project managers all over Stockholm.

Tomorrow also invited to Debaser to the premiere of SVTs new show Popcirkus! Apparantly Hyper is doing some collaboration with the project so I’m not quite sure what we are supposed to do there yet. But whatta heck! At least I have an excuse to enjoy a couple of cold ones!

And yes, about the redesign and portfolio.. Hrm… I’m on it…

Swedes in the US!

BTW, I FINALLY STARTED WORKING ON THE PORTFOLIO!! Stay tuned!
