Almost an ant...!
Another night with not a lot of sleep, but finally it happened: I have just come back from putting the "Digital Aesthetics & Design" anthology together with my co-editor and sending it off to the publishing house by way of one of those fast biking delivery boys, a lot of people in inner city Copenhagen have come to rely on. 334 pages (somewhat over the original 250 page proposal) and 16 brilliant articles on everything from webdesign to virtual worlds. I'm sure it is going to rock, once it gets published! (sometime around early March next year, rumour has it).

It has been great, but also extremely hard work, to translate 4 of these 16 articles into Danish from English (and there is one more to go), in about two weeks (with a lot of other stuff going on at the same time) - at some point, you simply turn snowblind to words, and you can't remember what anything is called in neither Danish or English. But mostly it has been So Fun to work with the Danish language again - after having written almost exclusively in English for the last two years or so, I had forgotten how much more freedom of expression, your own native language lends to you after all. If the day had more than 24 hours (say something like 34 hours instead), I would definitely consider writing a Danish blog.

However, with the anthology of my shoulder for a little while, I now have the rest of the day to prepare for the Level Up Game Community conference in Utrecht, which starts tomorrow. Counting on being offline for that reason until Friday, but should be back in this space sometime after that.

+ coming up: link to the new issue of Dichtung Digital, which includes an article by yours truly and should go online any day now.
