Momus (UK)

Previous guests. Artist, songwriter, blogger and intellectual Momus (UK) stayed in the room while in Gothenburg to speak at Pecha Kucha GBG and perform at Cheesy Not Cheesy. He lived to blog about it here and here.

What was your first impression of Gothenburg despite the shitty budget airline airport?
I imagined Ingmar Bergman, dressed as Santa, riding down the main street of Gothenburg in a troika, three horses abreast.

What did you do during your stay here? What were the highlights?
In Gothenburg I offended some feminists, walked around a lot at night and played a much-too-long set in a disco with Jens Lekman watching. My highlights all probably occurred in Malmo, where Cindy from Krets Gallery showed me round.

Any fun projects lined up or any other closing thoughts?
I’m writing a Book of Scotlands which is really a Book of Japans, but don’t tell anyone!
