THYR BJÖRNSON
HUMAN

An impossible name to pronounce in the sprawling English language. But not as impossible as the meta-crisis our species is facing, so why complain? I am a designer / writer / director / human / facilitator interested in what makes us shift perspectives / worldviews / emotionally / futures. Driven by ideas and questions of impact rather than specialised technique, my work spans from humours satire to dense poetry, from immersive experiences to traditional printmaking. Themes of worry / care / critique / discovery trickles between documentation and films, nestling tight to my heart and history. 

Attempting to be understood, this website seek to serve as a platform to connect with you, dear viewer / guest? / friend? / collaborator? through a selection of things I have done. 
My hope is that you feel surprised, happy, intrigued, and/or down to connect.

VOICES ABOUT ME
OPERATIVE SPECULATION

WHEN: 2021
WHAT: Two part video installation
WHY: Don’t you wonder what’s behind the screen? 
WITH: Marie Verdeil, Ingrid Enache,
Sonia Gorecka
The two source video installation Operative Speculation explores what is hidden beyond the interface. What magical worlds of email interactions, digital imagery, and websites exists just out of sight on the oh so well known macBook experience? 

A speculative 3d augmented extension of the old desktop stretch outwards into an ethereal space of projection and potential. Asking: do we really know the biology of our dear laptops?
