Et virtuel kor på 2.000 stemmer - gør dig klar til tåre i øjnene og kuldegysninger!

Jeg følger med TED - Ideas Worth Spreading, hvor der findes tusinde af videoer med inspirerende mennesker og historier.

På vej på Påskeferie i Italien lyttede jeg til mange af disse videoblogs fra TED, og en af disse video var en fantastisk historie om etableringen af et virtuel kor på internettet.

Forstil dig 2.000 mennesker der synger sammen i et kor på nettet. Lyden er bare helt fantastisk, og du bliver bare lykkelig af at lytte til denne form for kor-musik. Min hustru fik tårer i øjnene, da hun lyttede til dette. Jeg garanterer, at du får en klump halsen. Det er bare smukt!

Komponisten Eric Whitacre bruger noget tid til at introducere konceptet, men 6 minutter og 30 sekunder inde i videoen kommer det første stykke sammenhængende internet kor-musik. Monter et par kvalitets høretelefoner på din PC og skru op. Se videoen her på Ted Talk.

Du kan også se/høre det fulde musikstykke på Eric Whitacre's egen hjemmeside, hvor lyden er bedre. Ca. 3.09 minut hende i videoen, hvor lyden er på vej mod et klimaks, kan du se, at der også er sangere med fra Danmark.

Days are going by - time is flying - we are getting older - the world is moving. Tic Tac Tic Tac. My professional career has come to a halt and it's time to reflect about the possibilities that opens up in such a situation. It's been a month since I stopped at Strålfors and all days (and some nights) has been used to reflect upon this situation. I've chosen to follow the obvious path - find a new job - and all my network is being activated. But another path has slowly emerged - and to no ones surprise - this path evolves around photography. I'm not talking about becoming a photographer, but to become part of the industry. Tomorrow I'll fly to Stockholm to meet some interesting people who successfully has opened a photography museum in Stockholm - Fotografiska.eu - and I'm going to here about their project and journey. The photo that I shot this afternoon in the woods nearby my home symbolise the break from Strålfors and the two new paths that I've ch...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
