We received sponsorship headwear from Atlas Copco! The Sound of Work: Blacksmith sample pack is turning into a weird side quest to corporate sound archeology. I contacted the companies marketing departments in Finland and Sweden and we received caps from both branches (Caps that were shipped for Jesse have a modern look and I got a more subtle grey version). Atlas Copco is a key company in the nordic mining and manufacturing culture. It’s a living fossil of an organization, which is rooted in pre-copyright manufacturing culture and it’s wealth is based accessibility to local raw ores. I always remove or hide branding from my clothing but this is a rare treat and I’ll keep the logo on. Unfortunately the shape of the cap is silly. The story is impressive though.

Visited performance by Jeremiah Day at SIC 2. The event was organized by Ruler. Day’s presentation reminded me a lot of Philipp Gehmacher’s piece for Baltic Circle. Both were big men, moving in a stuttery dance form, talking about current politics from a personal viewpoint in an plain manner. Day’s event was more uplifting than Gehmacher’s (who comes of as a diva compared to Day).
