Taking a book shower
A colleague cleaned out his bookshelves and gave me an amazing collection of history books. I decided to take a photo of the entire stack from below. Bad idea. First time I have taken a book shower.

On the empty gun emplacement
A technical failure may be an artistic success. The photo below would be at risk of being discarded if someone decided to sort out failed shots from the image library. But to me, it’s pure poetry. It was taken in 2011 by my mother Gunilla Bergman. It’s me to the left, Moa at the top […]

An interesting criteria for a really poor presentation
Today, I attended a ten minute presentation which made me so impatient that I had to restrain myself. As I was a guest, I felt that it was improper that my eyes (investigative), the expression on my face (disgruntled) and my body language (tense) gave away my feelings. I needed to relax fast and attain […]

The splendor of the proto-vikings
The splendor of the proto-vikings: Ogaklev hillfort, Södermanland. This wall, three meters high, lays undisturbed for 500 000 days (which takes us back to approx. 500 AD). It is becoming more and more obvious that there was a highly organized Swedish Game of Thrones society hundreds of years before the Christian people of Europe made […]
My lab coat – a visual examination of an archeological artefact
Cleaning the basement, I realized that the paint spotted garment hanging in the workshop was my old lab coat from tech uni, or to be specific: Faculty of Engineering, Lund University. I have mixed emotions. On the one hand, it really mirrors who I am and what I’ve always been, being relived from the shackles […]
The relief of submitting a complex writing assignment
Being overly empathetic, I have a tendency to engage a little bit too strongly in my writing assignments. Sometimes, it may seem that my life hangs in the balance. And the more complex the article is – regarding e.g. facts, connections, background as well as social, professional and political considerations – the more I attack […]
Cognitive dissonance, as demonstrated in a Stockholm hotel.
Waking up in a hotel (I will not tell you which, but it is the First one that comes to mind), I found this little fellow in my bed, carried it down to the lobby on a paper card and showed it to the clerk. “I found this in my bed,” I said to her. […]
