• Citroën geek
• Founder of SuperFly.tv
• Co-creator of the Cinefex iPad app
• Former Community manager CasparCG.com
• Former Broadcast designer at SVT, Swedish Broadcasting Corp.
• Hater of bullet points

I work on television broadcast automation and graphics by day, and at night I bust out my Arduinos and build camera cranes, time-lapse dollys and other geeky projects. I’ve also been known to put aquarium pumps inside home-built computers, and building my own Macs out of components.

It started with a 2.4K modem and a Mac SE with 20 MB of harddrive. From there I’ve been in tech publishing and DTP, and then migrated to PCs and web project management. After escaping that I co-founded a few consulting companies and think I’ve finally found my call as a broadcast designer doing 2D and 3D graphics for Swedish Broadcasting Corporation. Fun fact: I’ve been known to be able to identify 25 out of 25 typefaces when woken up in the middle of the night.

I’ve also worked with the talented collegues that develop the free and open source broadcast graphics play-out server CasparCG.

Lately I’ve also designed a bunch of UI’s for projects such as the Cinefex iPad app and various web-based controller systems such as the Sofie Automation system.
