consilia et ueteres quaecumque monetis amici,
"pone seram, cohibes." sed quis custodiat ipsos
custodes qui nunc lasciuae furta puellae
hac mercede silent? crimen commune tacetur.

Jagtvej 69 Politics is a little video we made as part of a team building exercise.



Essentially it is a little video using a Surrealist and Existential techniques about the politics surrounding Ungdomshuset

There are other teams that have produced videos and there is a little competition between them. Not quite sure how it is going to be scored, but do watch and give us a high rating, as I don't think it can harm the outcome...

A Zen teacher saw five of his students returning from the market, riding their bicycles. When they arrived at the monastery and had dismounted, the teacher asked the students, “Why are you riding your bicycles?” The first student replied, “The bicycle is carrying this sack of potatoes. I am glad that I do not have to carry them on my back!” The teacher praised the first student. “You are a smart boy! When you grow old, you will not walk hunched over like I do.” The second student replied, “I love to watch the trees and fields pass by as I roll down the path!” The teacher commended the second student, “Your eyes are open, and you see the world.” The third student replied, “When I ride my bicycle, I am content to chant nam myoho renge kyo.” The teacher gave his praise to the third student, “Your mind will roll with the ease of a newly trued wheel.” The fourth student replied, “Riding my bicycle, I live in harmony with all sentient beings.” The teacher was pleased and said to the fourth student, “You are riding on the golden path of non-harming.” The fifth student replied, “I ride my bicycle to ride my bicycle.” The teacher sat at the feet of the fifth student and said, “I am your student.”

Did the Merida MTB Marathon Denmark, 103km of lovely scenery and masses of mud in the woods and on the cycle paths about Hillerød.

Great fun. Over 1000 starters. That is an awful lots of bikes.

My GPS track is totally screwed up. I think I may well have banged the buttons during the race, and again later in the evening, either that or my Garmin 305 went crazy or something.
