I have made a new work together with the artist Helga Härenstam. I made a sculpture and box for her photos. A new sound work is released on a cd from gallery Muu in Finland.

- I m curating a exhibition mycomputer at 300m3 in Gothenburg with my friend Erik.
îSvenske jimpalt.org har laget det som trolig er tidenes mest meningsl¯se program til mobiltelefon."
îMost useless invention in the world."
"Swedish artist, Jimpalt had no one to sing him ìHappy Birthdayî on his special day.
In his need for at least an illusion of human connection, he created a downloadable software..."
"Can art influence dreams? I think this is almost obviously true. However, the notion of
creating a website that influences your dreams, so that the work of art isnt just the
music on the webpage, but instead is the dream thats influenced by the webpage is a really
cool idea.
First of all, this net.art isnt nearly as banal as most of the net.art that I managed to
find. While there is no overt discourse, it does ask questions about dreams, and influences,
and it questions the very ideals of what art can be. Because this piece uses something as
empheral as a dream for its delivery, I feel that it makes it stand out among a lot of the
socially minded, technology orineted, and process driven net.art. Basically, i like it
because it doesnt stick to the obvious tropes that I am starting to notice in the
online art world."
I found this one below and it the best one.
"Possible Husband No.1 - JIMPALT"
Showed my printmachine for A Shoal of Mackerel. They making artistbooks and are based in Glasgow and Gothenburg. I was invited to show the printmachine. Since I dont have a car I took my machine through town. Its portable and I use my old Bam-bam skateboard wheels.

Movement of the sun (sunclock) is now part of the Rhizome artbase. Also made new versions for New York, London and Tokyo.
This fall I have mostly been working to get money. I work as a teacher in 3d, drawing and different computer courses. I have created some new art, but didnít as much as I wanted toÖ
But, I also had some exhibitions, I showed a Pierce at liveherring and did a sound performance at julkalendern in my hometown.
I also had a exhibition in Scotland at threshold new media art space. I showed movement of the sun (sun clock). The work is now part of the permanent Threshold art space collection.
There was also writings about it on different WebPages and blogs. There is some funny reading about the piece and some people seams to like it, but some people thinks it is pointless. Anyway approxly 6-700 people has download it to there mobile phone.
The picture below is from a Norwegian site that thinks itís the most pointless program for mobile phone ever made. It might be true. Below I post some of the funniest comments about the piece. You can also see some links to sites that been written about it. Some of the pages are written in Spanish, French, German and some languages that I donít understand.
