SHOWCASE Holmenkollen - Oslo, Norway Photography © Daniel Mikkelsen SHOWCASE Holmenkollen - Oslo, Norway Located on the highest hill of Oslo, Holmenkollbakken is one of the most famous ski jumps in the world and can be seen from anywhere in the city. This landmark is now illuminated by Traxon’s Graze Shield AC XB and Wall Washer Shield AC XB in cold and warm white hues. Controlled by an e:cue Butler XT, the entire steel façade is illuminated from the inside and underneath the jumping area in four dynamic scenarios. The installation illuminates a jumper gliding down the hill; it glows and pulses like a star or ice crystals on the façade; it contrasts dark and light sections of the hill moving up and down on the façade; and the running light can also be dimmed to 75% and 50%. The controller’s eight digital inputs interface with the overall control system of the ski stadium. The project’s technical challenges include finding the optimal position of the fixtures, and installing the fixtures 80 meters high; mobile cranes and crew safety had to be quality assured at a high level. Many parties were involed and the result is a masterpiece of architectural lighting—a truly stunning project of a lifetime.

Because of the Gulf Stream, Norway has a friendlier climate than the latitude indicates, leaving it with ice-free ports all year round. The Gulf Stream is a warm ocean current leading water from the Caribbean north easterly across the Atlantic Ocean, and then follows the Norwegian coast northwards. 6 7 I. Why invest in Norway In spite of being a small nation, Norway is a highly developed and modern country with a very strong, open and buoyant economy.

Alvenius thermo plastic pipes were considered as the best alternative for this installation, the impressive dura- bility of the coating as well as the flexibility of the couplings are both important technical advantages. With a significant length of pipes the upgrade will be made in a few steps. In 2009 Alvenius delivered the third system since 2007.

  • Master Thesis 60 Credits
    UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Department of informatics Holmenkollen Time Travel Developing a Situated Simulation for a handheld device Master thesis 60 credits Vegard Fleischer Orkelbog 31. January 2012 II Abstract Holmenkollen is a ski jumping hill, a place and a structure of cultural and historical importance in Norway. This thesis describes the development of the situated simulation Holmenkollen Time Travel (HTT), an application made for iPad2. The HTT allows a user to “travel in time” to experience four different versions of the ski jumping hill, hence the name. The application is tested on location by different user groups and the feedback from the individuals shows how the HTT can enhance a user’s experience of Holmenkollen. The application introduces some new developments to the concept of situated simulations, and is further analyzed within the theoretical framework of Augmented Reality and Place Specific Computing. III IV Acknowledgements I would really like to thank my supervisor Gunnar Liestøl for his excellent support during the whole process; it’s been a pleasure working with you. I would also like to thank those affiliated with the INVENTIO-Project who has given me a hand, and a special thanks to Tomas Stenarson who has been a really helpful during the development phase. Thanks to my informants, especially to Klaus Kromann in the Ski Federation. You have been a great asset to me. Mikkel, my good friend and colleague, you have been great support. You have given me lots of valuable input and motivation when I needed it the most. Thank you for being there! What would the days have been like without good friends and lunch-buddies? Jenny and Ann Kristin, thanks for all the laughs.

  • Kommunedelplan for Oslo Kommunes Del Av Marka
    FORORD Kommunedelplan for Oslos del av Oslomarka er utarbeidet etter anmodning fra Fylkesmannen i Oslo og Akershus i brev av 7.4.86. 1 kongelig resolusjon av 13.2.87 vedr. kommuneplan 84 for Oslo ble frist satt til 1.3.88. Utsettelser er gitt. Arealdelen til Oslos kommuneplan 1990 består av to deler: 1) Kommunedelplan for Oslo del av Oslomarka 2) Prinsipplan for byggesonen. Grunnet Oslo kommunes spesielle arealsituasjon har det vært nødvendig å se disponering av Marka i nær sammenheng med Oslos framtidige byutviklingsmuligheter. Bystyremelding nr. 1. Om byutvikling og arealsituasjonen i Oslo, danner utgangspunkt for kommuneplanens arealdel hvor kommunedelplanen inngår. Kommunedelplanen for Marka fremmes i forkant av selve kommuneplandokumentet for å imøtekomme behovet for planbeskyttelse av Marka. Forslag til kommunedelplan har vært på offentlig høring i perioden april-mai 1989. Det kom inn 49 merknader. Enkelte endringer er foretatt på bakgrunn av merknadene. I forbindelse med ikrafttreden av ny plan og bygningslov, har Oslo kommune benyttet seg av overgangsbestemmelser og vedtatt midlertidige offentlig høring i perioden mai -juni 1989. Det plankrav for Marka. Disse er blitt forlenget med gyldighet fram til 1.7.91, og forutsettes erstattet med foreliggende forslag til kommunedelplan for Marka. Planforslaget er utarbeidet av planleggingsleder Ragnhild Johansen og saksbehandler Lise Walnum Radoli, byutviklingsavdelingen.
