This was the year graduated from The Iceland University of the Arts. I received my second Erasmus grand and this time I applied for internship at Egill Sæbjörnsson Studio in Berlin. There I worked for six months for Egill on various projects as well as on my own art.

Funnyman – transcript
I am a looser in a lost world
what does that make me?
Hey, Mr. Funny man
play the Gong for me
I am weary and fed up with your bigotry
Hey Mr. Funny man
I have set me self free
the world is not YOUR world I want to live in
I am a looser in a lost world
what does that make me?
Close your eyes Mr. Funny man
you can’t see with them open
and your mind is already made up
of plastics
Hey Mr. Funny man
your vomit is pouring
and your power is waning
the innate programming has been replaced
Emotional memory is fading
you can’t be expected to process
what you don’t access
Hey Mr. Funny man
play along with me
yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no,
yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no,
this cross you bear is heavy
your hate speech has shaped me
and now It is my turn to shape me
Hey, Mr. Funny man
play a song for me
in silence and in absence
of your totality
