Well, it turns out, DTU has a (one) grand piano. A Bösendorfer. Recorded a couple of old pieces:

Fejø on my mind
Been home two days now, but the two days on Fejø last week still resonate: Gorgeous collection of moments. And a tour de force of musicianship. Check it out yourself.
The program does not do full justice to the workload of the musicians. “Musik af: Ravel, Purcell …” actually covered a performance of Ravel’s duo for violin and … Read the rest

Åh anemoner – finally spring
First day of school
The big day. A happy boy, tired, in bed now.
Catch
This time we landed the catch, Pablo’s first – a beautiful sea trout from Sakskøbing Fjord. A great finale to this year’s summer vacations. Click on the picture (and log in) to see more.
Trouts
Pablo got his first trout on the hook this summer, but ouch – I failed to land it. Still, we landed 2 others – and it was a great experience – not least thanks to his faithful Abumatic 170iN. Below’s a scan of the leaflet that comes with the reel.
Summer vacation on Fyn

Christmas in Zurich
Merry Christmas and a happy new year from Zurich!
Vacation in a place you know this well is actually very relaxing. And good old Zurich is largely unchanged – even got chicken sweet and sour at the same place from the same guy as 12 years ago.

3PGCIC-2011
Back in Barcelona to present a paper at 3PGCIC-2011 – a well organized and pleasant conference with a varied program. Good discussions on distributed computing. Excellent social arrangements including the reception banquet at the charming Institut d’Estudis Catalans and a visit to the Mare Nostrum supercomputer of the BSC – located in a former chapel.
ACAT 2011
My first ACAT conference – this year hosted by Brunel University. I presented a paper on my GUI for ATLAS data processing.
The topics of ACAT match very well what I’ve been doing both during my PhD days and alter – and I’ve been wanting to go for years, but never managed till now. Of course it’s … Read the rest

Works for cello & piano by Leopold van der Pals
Came across this CD by chance. The soloist – living here on Østerbro, is the grandson of the composer .
Post-romantic, austerity, suspense and longing. Apparently it appeals to the younger generations

Østerbro
Since November 2010 we’re living on Østerbro – and very happy with the neighborhood. Kindergarten, shopping, swimming, karate, fitness and cafe’s all very close and very children friendly.
Here’s a picture of spring coming to our backyard:

Canada was great – here’s a couple of pictures from the Summit photo contest:
Went to Summit 09 to give an invited talk in the Workshop “HPC and Grid Computing in the Cloud” (OGF27).
My talk was about what I see as an opportunity to dramatically simplify and improve the infrastructure of scientific computation and collaboration.

Almost all the sessions I attended had engaging discussions.
