About: Have been into the gothic scene for several years,
after first being introduced to it in London, England more than ten years
ago. Keep going back there as often as I can, and am trying to take the
best of what is there and introduce it to Norway. So to do my share of
contributing to the goth and underground scene, I have started up the
website GOTHIC.NO which now has over 100.000
hits every month. In 2002, I also started the goth club REDEMPTION,
which opened up in 2003. Since 2004, we've also been running LOST
SOULS, a gothic and alternative halloween festival, presenting bands
and artists, both Norwegian and foreign. Am also the owner of gothic clothing
store DARKLANDS
with both online shop + shop in Kristiansand, Norway. When I have some
extra time, I also do some photography + web and graphic design via my
design company ELECTRIC EMPIRE. In February
2006, Darklands bought and took over Norway's only goth
magazine, RIMFROST . Am now the editor
of the magazine, with first issue published by Darklands in June 2006!
I also do interviews, articles and photo, and am in charge of all layout
and design of the magazine. Gothic.no is also promoting
artists, clubs, magazines etc, all of which you will find more about at
GOTHIC.NO - the website that I develop and
am webmaster and owner of.
