Influences
MUSIC:Duke Ellington once said that there are only two kinds of music, good music and bad music. I prefer good music. To me good music is: Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Laurie Anderson, Nina Hagen, Bjork, Ojos de Brujo, Camaron de la Isla, Enrique Morente, Paco de Lucia, , Astor Piazzolla, Ibrahim Ferrer, Omara Portuondo, Jan Garbarek, Mari Boine, Palle Mikkelborg, Zakir Hussain, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, John Scofield, Pat Metheney, Elvin Jones, Weather Report, Led Zeppelin, Kaizers Orchestra, Afenngin, Teitur, Eivor, Hanus Johanesen, Kári Sverrison...etc...etc. BOOKS: At the moment I have fallen madly in love with Jonathan Safran Foer´s writing. His novels "Everything is illuminated" and "Extremely loud and incredibly close" blew me a way. Foer is a great liar. Some of the other great liars I´ve read are William Heinesen, William Blake, William Shakespeare, Phillip Pullman, JRR Tolkien, Mario Vargas Llosa, Gabriel Garcia Marques, Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Paul Auster, Einar Már Guðmundsson, Carl Johan Jensen and Woody Allen. THEATER AND FILM :Since I basically was born and raised in a theater, I have very strong feelings about the art of acting and directing, even though this is the art form that I, strangely enough, performe the least.
Playwriters like Shakespeare, Dario Fo and Lorca are some of the Gods that I grew up with.
I love the Cohen Brothers, the Wachowski Brothers, Scott Mantz, Francis Ford Coppola, Milos Forman, Woody Allen and other fantastic directors.
I love Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson, Nicole Kidman, Edward Norton, John Malkovich, Penelope Cruz, Woody Allen and other fantastic actors.
I love One flew over the cuckoo´s nest, The Godfather, A Clockwork orange, the big lebowski, the Matrix Moulin rouge, Amelie, Snatch, Festen....... and almost all Woody Allen movies. But my greatest influences of all are my parents, my grandparents and all the children I´ve ever met. Children are masters of fantasy and therefore great teachers of fantasy.
MY ORIGIN:
My mother’s water broke in 1979 on the 23rd of April. The 23rd of april of 1979 was the same day that a Big Blue whale called BOB SADLY DIED of constipation and therefore floated up to the surface of the cold blue Greenland sea and therefore, by functioning as A DEAD 110 FEET LONG LIFEBOAT, saved the drowning men of a sunken Faroese fishingboat called THE FISHINGBOAT. So, as my mother lay on a hospitalbed, screaming for help, the men of the fishingboat THE FISHINGBOAT lay on a 110 feet long dead marine mammal screaming for help. Tragically, as MY MOTHER PUSHED ME IN TO LIFE, the Blue Whale started sinking and all the sailors died, except one, my uncle called BUDAM, who was an exellent swimmer and swam from the cold sea of Greenland to the not so cold sea of the FAROE ISLANDS.
So, my mother named me after a screaming and swimming uncle who, ironically, died shortly after of - I KID YOU NOT – constipation.
He and Bob the Blue Whale became known as THE CONSTIPATED SAINTS OF THE SEA---
MY PHILOSOPHY:
My mother is an actress and my father is a great storyteller so I grew up with two parents dedicated to the art of lying. Every lie has a little truth in it, my father used to tell me. I believed him. And I still do. Every lie has a little truth in it.
So that is what I do. I tell stories, I act and I sing. I’m dedicated to the art of lying.
And, to tell you the truth, it is the only thing in life – this crazy dance of spirit, mind and matter – that makes sense to me. To tell a little truth with a big lie.---
MY VOCATION:
To touch people - especially women - where they usually don't get touched.
