Filmed the morning shift at the mounted police force stables in Ruskeasuo. Cleaned a few boxes and got to help with police horse feeding.

Digital-to-Tangible Clinic & Workshop for Rescue Museum at Temporary went relatively well. I didn’t feel 100% prepared to host the clinic but we had some decent moments with the four guests and people appeared satisfied. I could have been more dynamic in my presentation and kept a more packed schedule. People seemed to enjoy re-mediating digital content (drawing).

Followed the mounted police force of Helsinki trough the independence day rallies. Eight hours in minus five celsius weather and I only got one decent shot of the horses. A pair of geldings grooming each other, yellow back light and police lights reflecting from their facial armor plexiglass. The nationalist “612 freedom rally” was an eye opener.. Bigotry is winning.
