WEEKEND SUGGESTIONS Week 17 INTERNATIONAL NETWORK OF NORWAY Oslo Chamber of Commerce WEEKEND SUGGESTIONS Week 17 HI EVERYBODY! 1st May is the International Worker´s Day, a celebration of the international labour movement. This day is a national holiday in more than 80 countries around the world, including Norway, and is celebrated unofficially in many others. In Oslo, the day will be marked by the traditional march and rally organised by Landsorganisasjonen i Norge (The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions) with speeches by the main political party leaders. The event starts at Youngstorget at 11:25 with speeches followed by the march starting from Youngstorget at 12:45. Many Norwegians do choose to spend the day at home with the family or getting the garden ready for spring. Here are our suggestions for this weekend. Enjoy!

Free of charge Photo: VisitOslo Address: Schæffers gate 5 Tori Wrånes – Hot Pocket, Museum of Contemporary Art, 28th and 29th April, 12:00 – 17:00 Few Norwegian artists are better known internationally than Tori Wrånes (b. 1978). A unique voice on the contemporary art scene, she uses costumes, props, voice and movement to create suggestive and hypnotic pockets of time – secret, highly charged spaces and mesmerising utopias. Wrånes’ all-encompassing projects draw us into a magical, dreamlike world where anything is possible. She twists and reshapes traditions into spellbinding experiences – a concert in a ski lift, a ballet of construction cranes, an opera on bicycles. The exhibition "Hot Pocket" is Wrånes’ first major presentation in Norway. It will include both new works and others that have not previously beenb shown here, and will be accompanied by a performance programme. Tickets on site. Address: Bankplassen 4 Photo: VisitOslo CONCERTS Ghost, Oslo Spektrum 27th and 28th April at 19:30 Concert with the Swedish metal band who took the world by storm in 2010.

  • PRONG 21. August 2014 Stuttgart Universum
    PRONG 21. August 2014 Stuttgart Universum Zu dem Zeitpunkt, an dem PRONG im Jahr 1989 bei Epic Records unterschrieb, hatte das New York Post-Metal-Triumvirat bereits viel erreicht. Die Band, die von Gitarrist und Sänger Tommy Victor, Tontechniker im legendären Club CBGBs zusammen mit dem Club-Türsteher Mike Kirkland und Ex-Swans Schlagzeuger Ted Parsons gegründet wurde, hatte bereits zwei Indie-Veröffentlichungen: die Primitive Origins EP (1987) und Force-Fed (1988). Eine Show im alten Ritz in New York mit den New Yorker Hardcore-Legenden Cro-Mags und den deutschen Thrashern Destruction besiegelte den Deal mit Epic Records. “Der Deal mit einem Major-Label war vor allem eine Frage des Überlebens", erklärte Victor dem britischen Kerrang!- Magazin im Jahr 1990. "Wir sind keine High-School-Kids, die bei ihren Eltern leben." Überleben und wachsen war das Motto für PRONG. Das 1990er Album “Beg To Differ” wurde sofort ein Genre-Klassiker. Songs wie der epische Titeltrack oder das unglaublich disziplinierte, dynamische "Lost and Found" zeigten weiterhin, wie PRONG die Exzesse des Metal auseinander nahm und daraus einen eigenen Sound formte. "Wir haben uns nie nur als eine Metal-Band gesehen", sagte Victor. "Unsere Riffs, Texte und Ideen waren minimal, aber alles, was wir fühlten und alles, was wir sahen, war inspiriert durch das Leben im New York City der 80er Jahre. Eine Menge von dem, was ich zu sagen hatte war ziemlich reaktionär. Disneyland war noch nicht eingezogen." Im Laufe der nächsten drei Major-Label-Veröffentlichungen “Prove You Wrong” ( 1991) “Cleansing” (1994) und “Rude Awakening” (1996) , nahmen PRONG einen innovativen Kurs.

We will begin with a brief annual report and elec- tions** followed by a special presentation by Dr. Michael Medler, a professor at Huxley College of the Environment at WWU. Dr. Medler is an associate professor at Western Washington University in the Environmental Studies department. He is a past president of The Association for Fire Ecology, and the founding editor of the scientific journal Fire Ecology. In the 1980s he worked on fire crews in the Pacific Northwest and fought fires across the west including the 1988 fires in Yellowstone. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Arizona in 1997, where he researched improving methods for wildland fire mapping using satellite data. Since that time he has been a wildland fire researcher who has provided information and testimony for groups ranging from the United States Congress, to local homeowners organizations. His presentation at the annual meeting is titled: “The Changing Pyrogeography of Fires in the West” The last few summers have brought about a real reckoning about the “New Normal” we are seeing with wildland fire in the American West. Climate change, building practices, and a century of fire policies have combined to leave many of our forests explosive.
