THE NORDIC CIRRUS MEETING IN OSLO

Poor delegates in Oslo had to listen to me planning the next steps in our programs.

We had the annual meeting of our network that covers almost all the design schools in Scandinavia and the Baltic. This is named Cirrus and one can see its site here.

The normal size of this meeting that takes place annually in the autumn is around 40 delegates, from most of the Scandinavian Schools.

This time the meeting took place in my school in Oslo (KHiO) since the school is now in completely new premises and it is interesting for other people to see how new facilities are planned. All the design schools are in continuous change actually and development but sometimes there are grand changes happening like when the Oslo school moved together last year. Copenhagen Design School has also done the same now and the winter meeting will take place there in February. It is an other kind of a meeting where discussion about the field and how to develop the teaching takes place. I am looking forward to that also.

A coffee break in the lobby of the Oslo Art and Design School, but the program was quite full and lots of very interesting discussions took place.
