IT IS INCREDIBLE. The road. How it teaches. You just have no idea where you are going to go, and then, there you are. Writing today from a small unexpectedly well-connected wifi place. Fast. Lucky. Reflecting lately on the journeys, typing and sharing the gems in S P A C E. Enjoying offline random…

NEXT MONTH IN SINGAPORE, DK are going to be hosting a popup, weekend zinemaking salon, Atelier S P A C E || Singapore. It's not quite what, I think, fits into the usual programme of 'writer event, go to the library,' and 'design event, go to a conference,' and 'open…

IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE PREMATURE to start blogging about the next 'N' already, but it is here, in my heart, as soon as the last one finishes. There is, of course, the thank-you not that I am still writing. For those who joined us at 'N' in Hanoi... wow,…

TODAY, a guest post by Aske Pedersen from Aarhus, Denmark. (English version here.) Frygt og Lykke JEG ER BANGE. Ikke for mørke, højder eller for at dø. Nej, jeg er bange for ikke at slå til, at være utilstrækkelig, og derfor foregår der en konstant kamp indeni mig. En…
