Back on beautiful Møn. Jeanne and I have been coming here for years—first with our two boys, now often just the two of us. Many of our friends have summer houses here. Møn is a small island in the southeastern part of Denmark, known for its rolling hills, chalk cliffs, and wide-open views. The landscape never disappoints—even the typical Danish summer rain feels right at home up here.

- Spent a beautiful summer day at Rokkedyssegaard in North Zealand picking fresh raspberries and strawberries 🍓☀️ The first photo shows the day’s harvest—baskets full of sun-ripened berries and a few bottles of homemade juice. The second photo is a guide to the many delicious berry varieties available for self-picking. A perfect way to slow down and taste the season. Highly recommended if you’re in Denmark!

- Two new Economist articles in Science & Tech highlight Danish research. 🌍🧬
🇩🇰 University of Copenhagen recovered 24-million-year-old proteins, pushing palaeontology into new territory.
🇩🇰 Aarhus University’s 2003 study is cited for debunking myths about vaccines and autism.
Proud to see Danish science making a global impact. 🔬📚

- What does Clara Schumann, Liszt, and Chopin sound like on a @bluthner.piano from 1859? The answer: like hearing the music through the composers’ own ears. @pashchenkeyboard let the works come alive on this historical instrument—reminding us how fun and revealing it is to play music on the very kind of piano it was originally written for. @hindsgavl_festival (07/07/2025 23:10:13)
- An evening of musical miniature dramas at @hindsgavl_festival: @arcangelomusic led by @jonny_arcangelo , brought baroque brilliance to life with duets by Händel. @sorayamafi and @iiestyndavies captured every emotion—from heavenly peace to jealous fury. Highlights included “Streams of pleasure” and the breathtaking “Io t’abbraccio.” (07/07/2025 22:59:48)
- The atmosphere was electric last night at @hindsgavl_festival. Several musicians had already played earlier in the week, and you could feel the deep friendships and musical trust on stage. @carolinwidmannviolin, @danushawaskiewicz, Christian Poltera, and @deniskozhukhin performed Schubert’s Adagio e Rondo Concertante, Lekeu’s unfinished piano quartet, and Schumann’s radiant Piano Quartet in E-flat major. A truly special evening. (07/06/2025 22:18:21)
- Yes, vulnerability matters. But when feelings become marketing—emotional honesty weaponised for politics or PR—I recoil. Reeves and Starmer’s recent displays show how fine the line is between human and strategic. I want my leaders to feel—but not perform feelings. #Vulnerability #Politics #AuthenticityFatigue

- Last night’s @hindsgavl_festival concert with soprano @christianekarg Karg and pianist Wolfram Rieger —joined by flautist @jeschekjill and cellist Christian Poltéra—was a tour de force of 20th-century art songs. The closing work, Montsalvatge’s Cinco Canciones negras, was tough, sharp and potentially controversial. Stunning. (07/06/2025 14:57:44)
- At @claykeramikmuseumdanmark I saw @benteskjoettgaard exhibition—an imaginative and tactile cosmos of glaze and form. Her sculptural cumulus clouds struck a particular chord, reminding me of @nannadeboisbuhl book Cloud Behaviour, which I read last year. Strange how clouds can feel so weighty. (07/06/2025 14:56:14)
- Visited @claykeramikmuseumdanmark in Middelfart to see A Walk with a Dinosaur by @michaelgeertsen —a fascinating journey through ceramic imagination and art history. I was especially intrigued by the pieces inspired by the Russian avant-garde. As a great admirer of Kazimir Malevich, it was a joy to spot echoes of Suprematism in unexpected forms.
