R as in Rest | #blog26 #wishlist
Sometimes your wishes can be answered at once. I wish to have night’s rest. Come true and real. Soon! Good night!
Q as in Tema Q | #blog26 #wishlist
I wish I can get a research position at Tema Q at Linköpings University. It is a cross/trans/multidisciplinary research institution focusing culture and societal change and development. I hope I can take my documented skills in researching innovation and entrepreneurship related to sustainability and put it into context of music for health. How to deploy insights from where we know music benefits health, in practice? How to creatively organize in order to make music do good for health? I see the target now. Now, the only way is up. Now, this is my ‘escalator pitch’. Now, do!
P as in Peace | #blog26 #wishlist
I wish there was peace in the world. But peace in our life is a great beginning! A pic from us, dipping toes in Grännäs, Valdemarsvik, the weekend passing. Peace in a moment. There, it begins!
O as in Open World | #blog26 #wishlist
I wish the world would be more open. Too many things separate us, too many borders, in so many dimensions and ways. Open your heart, open our world! Drawing by Nadine.
N as in Norrköping – Stadsloppet 10 km | #blog26 #wishlist
I love my home town. It’s beautiful. The old meeting the new. The hard meeting the soft. The rough meeting the polished. These contrasts. #Norrköping, here captured by Karin The @akrogirl on Instagram! Reflecting the beautiful and lovely, as she always does in her streams. I wish my town to be the greatest version of itself, it can be. I will not list the specifics, because that takes a wishlist A to Z in itself! There is still alot of development potentials in this town. Goes beyond this posting. But! When the town really comes together and lifts itself up,…
M as in Music For Health Research | #blog26 #wishlist
I was by the finding of the moment stumbling upon a music cassette in the collections of my mother-in-law. Ralph Lundsten, Mindscape Music. Ralph has made music that has been used as treatment in psychiatric wards in the UK. I will let the full story evolve regards Mindscape Music when I’ve heard this piece of music and researching its history. And this is exactly my wish. That I can get room, space, energy, health and place to find my little corner of the Big Verse named Music For Health, to research! Then I can dig deeper, in e. g. the…
L as in Loved Ones | #blog26 #wishlist
Let’s start off with some here-and-now pics. We are in Valdemarsvik for the weekend, arrived today with the full family, cats included. What we do and what happens – follow Karin on Instagram (@akrogirl)! I am sitting on the second floor of Karin’s mum’s lovely house. The Tablet shines. I have a little remote keyboard connected to it. Mindmapped where to take this posting. Directions. Loved ones! Yes. Family! But, before that – let’s make a little historical odyssey. All You Need Is Love – “it was 49 years ago today” Sgt. Pepper told the band to play! And, they…
K as in Kraftwerk | #blog26 #wishlist
Yesterday, I had a wish to see Jean-Michel Jarre live, showing up in Stockholm in October 29. Today, I will report a wish that already has been fulfilled. I have had a wish to see Kraftwerk live. They have done numerous of concerts in Sweden the past years, and I’ve missed them all. Until now! In July 31, 2016, they appear as a part of Stockholm Music & Arts Festival at Skeppsholmen, Stockholm. And I got this beautiful gift as a birthday present getting 50 years (the reason behind my wishlist A-Z – #blog26), already at the day Mika turned…
J as in Jean-Michel Jarre | #blog26 #wishlist
As I already have written in the warm-up of this blog challenge (in Swedish), which started June 26 on my 50th birthday, some of you might already know what would show up in “J” in my A to Z Wishlist. Jean-Michel Jarre – The Live Experience! I got introduced to Jean-Michel Jarre early on in my own personal “musical biography”. My uncle was a hardcore music addict as me, and I thank him for discovering alot of music during my upbringing. Jean-Michel Jarre was one of his findings in his search for the new and pioneering. 1976, the Jarre album…
I as in Inspiration | #blog26 #wishlist
Inspiration. I wish I had more right now to find a wish beginning with I. But couldn’t find it. So I wish for more inspiration for the rest of the challenge! Of this reason, I hereby publish a recent image with our three cats Uchi, Soto and Deshi!
H as in Hobby | #blog26 #wishlist
Mika captured by Karin today, at a BBQ invited by our friend Hanna and meeting some of her friends. In these days, with Football Male European Championships, this might be appropriate, ha ha! But seriously, Mika loves balls and getting them into move. But he also loves music and dancing – moving in his own style. And banging on things! But whatever he chooses coming to what he loves to do, I wish he does it independently out and from his own heart. His own hobby, his own passion, his own style and expression! And not end up being a…
