Project Screen Shots

More and more people in the creative industry work partly or mostly on Computers. Their screen serves both as their works space and as a window to the rest of the world. By publishing creative people’s screenshots and thoughts the aim is to show an inside to their working process and to give an opportunity to “visit” their seldom seen and very personal space; the desktop. contact: [email protected]

Eren Aksu is a filmmaker based in Berlin:

At the moment he is cutting a short practice video where he describes his life in Berlin. Like usually he listens to some music on youtube and checks his random photo archive folder when he gets bored or stuck. He also uses this archive for inspiration and always takes notes in Microsoft OneNote for other projects, since they always seem to come when he is working on something else.

Hörður Már Bjarnason is the man behind M-band, not only is he a great musician, he also does the interesting life set visuals himself.

"This is usually my standard desktop setting - the three programs that I use every day; Ableton, Aftereffects and Photoshop. At least two folders open at the time, usually more. I´m sometimes like a hurricane when it comes to working space! Every time I open my web browser I automatically open five taps consisting of all the most common social media platforms, my mailboxes and my soundcloud. Late in the evening (like now) I sometimes invite Mulder and Scully for a coffee and watch them doing their work while I take a break from mine."

When I asked her what she was working on, she replied:

"Its a work in progress. The idea was to document my stay in Iceland. In the beginning I was taking photos on my shitty phone or using my computer, now I'm doing it more seriously. Beside the photos I'm collecting memories and thoughts, its becoming something I do every day. I want to put them together somehow, its still not formed."
