Andie's Log

My name is Andie Nordgren and I use my knowledge of games, participation and web development to work on many things.

This is my tumble log, where I post good stuff I find around the net and some original content as well. Here's a list of original writing.

About

I'm currently working for RjDj in London.

rjdj

RjDj creates mind twisting hearing sensations by weaving your environment into music, using the sensors on your music player. If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch, try it, or read more and see some video of it in action over at rjdj.me.

Some of my other projects include the geek girl revolution at Geek Girl Meetup, relationship anarchy at Dr Andie, Nordic larp community blog Nordic Scene, and change-through-participation art zine/think tank/activist group Interacting Arts.

I live and tinker in the Shoreditch Hacker House.

Some previous fun

In 2007 I produced the game part of Interactive Emmy Award winning project The Truth About Marika, and I will some day finish a masters thesis in Computer and Systems Science at the Interactive Institute Game Studio about the tools we built to game master the reality game.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Computer and Systems Science from Stockholm University.

Credibility is a basic survival tool. When I was very young and just beginning to get what feminism was about and why it was necessary, I had a boyfriend whose uncle was a nuclear physicist. One Christmas, he was telling — as though it were a light and amusing subject — how a neighbor’s wife in his suburban bomb-making community had come running out of her house naked in the middle of the night screaming that her husband was trying to kill her. How, I asked, did you know that he wasn’t trying to kill her? He explained, patiently, that they were respectable middle-class people. Therefore, her-husband-trying-to-kill-her was simply not a credible explanation for her fleeing the house yelling that her husband was trying to kill her. That she was crazy, on the other hand….
