FORUM NIDROSIAE
Forum Nidrosiae was founded by me in 2008 as an informal lecture society and 'pub moot' dedicated to the study of various interrelated subjects connected to esotericism and so-called occulture, as well as other fringe topics of interest.
The forum is independent, but has at times cooperated with TEKS, focusing on esoteric and artistic endeavors which operates in the intersection between science, metaphysics and new technologies.
In addition to the lecture series which has spanned a vast array of topics, I have also organised exhibitions, film screenings and concerts under this name.
In November 2009 I was invited to organise a lecture and after party as part of the Satanism in the Modern World conference by Drs. Jesper Aagaard Petersen and Per Faxneld with the Department of Archaeology and Religious Studies at NTNU. In 2010 I organised Forum Nidrosiae events at both Trondheim Academy of Fine Art, Trondheim Cinematheque and Rockheim National Museum of Popular Music. In 2011 I hosted exhibitions by artist and writer Carl Abrahamsson at Babel Art Space and by Origami Boe at Galleri Blunk, as well as a show by the 'pataphysical folk-pop phenomenon Gyron V. In 2012 I expanded the Forum Nidrosiae concept to include the Here To Go - Art, Counter-Culture and the Esoteric conference, organised in cooperation with Carl Abrahamsson and the Meta.Morf Biennale for Art & Technology.
I have organised 49 Forum Nidrosiae events so far. All posters and wine labels are designed by me. New lectures are forthcoming autumn 2017. I wish to thank my friend Dr. Petersen for his continuous support and cooperation.
